We designed and installed an energy-saving solar system for Grid Group, Durban!
Project Scope:
- To meter and size a grid-tied solar system to subsidise the electricity usage from the municipality, ensuring optimised production (i.e: a system that produces the load required, not oversized)
- Design a system that would not impact the aesthetics of the building
- Deliver power according to the guaranteed solar system production
- Deliver a 4-year or less payback through electricity savings (on a 20-25 year asset)
- Mitigate financial risk
Success:
- 260kWp grid-tied system was installed
- System will reduce the site's utility consumption by up to 35%
- Seamless system, transition between utility power and solar power is barely noticeable
- The Inverter App/Website allows for live system and per-panel performance monitoring
- Solar panels have a liner output warranty for 25 years
- Inverters come with a 20 year warranty
- Monthly reporting with quarterly site inspections and panel cleaning ensures the investment is bringing in the anticipated financial returns
