Discover how Solar Save Renewables transformed a bungalow with a 3.95 kWp solar PV system featuring 10 QCells 395W solar panels and a 3.6 kW Solis inverter.
Mark Summerfield's energy consumption was significantly reduced after installing the system, dropping from 9 kWh to as low as 2 kWh daily. This change resulted in substantial energy savings and a significant reduction in carbon footprint.
Through a seamless installation process, Mark experienced both financial benefits and a great deal of customer satisfaction. He now confidently recommends Solar Save Renewables for energy-efficient, eco-friendly solutions.
Mark decided to reduce his household energy consumption and contribute to sustainable energy generation. To achieve this, he invested in a solar photovoltaic (PV) system designed to harness solar energy and lower his carbon footprint.
Solar Save Renewables was engaged to install the solar PV system on the roof of the bungalow. The system was specifically designed to optimize energy efficiency, ensuring significant savings on electricity bills and a reduced environmental impact.
Solar Panels: 10 QCells 395W solar panels
Inverter: 3.6 kW Solis inverter
Total System Capacity: 3.95 kWp
Solar Save Renewables carefully planned and executed the installation process to maximize both performance and aesthetics. The panels were positioned strategically on the bungalow's roof to capture the maximum amount of sunlight throughout the day.
The 3.6 kW Solis inverter was installed in the garage, acting as the system's core. It efficiently converts the direct current (DC) produced by the panels into alternating current (AC) for household use.
The system began operating in late spring, during the sunny months of May and June. Mark noticed a significant drop in daily energy consumption compared to before the system was installed. Prior to installation, his household consumed between 7.5 kWh and 12 kWh daily, averaging around 9 kWh.
After the installation, energy consumption plummeted to just 2-3 kWh per day, rarely exceeding 5 kWh. On certain days, the solar panels even generated enough power to meet all household needs, including running appliances like the hob, computer, and washing machine simultaneously.
One of the key advantages of the solar PV system was the ability to export excess energy back to the grid. As an MCS certified company, Solar Save Renewables ensured the system was registered, and Mark quickly applied for the Smart Export Tariff (SEG). The electricity supplier began tracking the excess energy generated via the smart meter.
This contribution of excess energy to the grid resulted in financial returns, reducing Mark's electricity bills and potentially generating income from the power exported.
