The Brief:
Discover how Solar Save Renewables seamlessly integrated a 5.2 kWp in-roof Solar PV system into a picturesque rural property, achieving both environmental benefits and aesthetic harmony.
Client Profile:
Mr. and Mrs. J Parsons are the proud owners of a picturesque rural property located in Pencader, Wales. Drawn by their strong commitment to environmental sustainability and a desire to achieve significant financial returns, the Parsons family have decided to explore the opportunity to harness the power of solar energy. However, the couple had reservations about the conventional appearance of solar panels, which they felt might detract from the aesthetic charm of their property.
Challenges of Installing Solar Panels on Rural Property:
The Parsons family faced a dual challenge: to make the most of on the environmental and financial advantages of solar photovoltaic (PV) technology while preserving the visual integrity of their charming rural cottage. They were seeking a solution that seamlessly integrated solar panels into their property's architecture without compromising its visual appeal.
The Solution:
Solar Panels Solution:
Recognising the unique needs and preferences of our customer, Solar Save Renewables proposed a tailored solution: the installation of an in-roof integrated Solar PV system. The proposed system involved placing the solar panels flush with the roof slates, allowing them to blend harmoniously with the existing architecture.
To achieve this, Solar Save Renewables conducted a thorough assessment of the property's energy requirements and solar potential. It was determined that the optimal placement for the solar panels would be on the east and west elevations of the property. The existing solar thermal panel was moved from the main roof in order to make space for installing the integrated mounting system for the panels. This adjustment allowed for a seamless integration of the solar PV array without compromising the structural integrity of the property.
In-Roof Solar PV Installation:
Solar Save Renewables installed this in-roof 5.2 kWp Solar PV system where the panels lie flat in line with the roof tiles so they can complement the aesthetics of the property. During the installation process, Mr. and Mrs. Parsons were consistently kept well-informed, with Petar providing clear explanations of the entire setup using easily understandable language at every step of the way.
Solar Save Renewables also took care of all the necessary applications to power suppliers, easing the administrative burden for the customer.
Results:
The outcome of the project exceeded the Parsons family's expectations. The in-roof integrated Solar PV system not only contributes to their commitment to sustainability and a greener future but also enhances the property's aesthetic value. The solar panels, neatly integrated with the roof slates, have become a seamless part of the architectural design.
Mr. and Mrs. Parsons are already experiencing the financial benefits of their solar investment, as the integrated system efficiently generates renewable energy and contributes to a reduction in their utility bills. Their testimonial emphasizes their satisfaction with Solar Save Renewables' expertise, professionalism, and the overall success of the project.
