Our customer in Trapp, Llandeilo, approached us with a clear vision of fully embracing renewable energy to meet the energy needs of their home sustainably. The brief was to create a fully integrated system that would generate, store, and efficiently manage energy for the property, making it as self-sufficient as possible. After discussing their goals, we designed a comprehensive solution combining Solar Photovoltaics (PV), Battery Storage, and an Air Source Heat Pump to reduce their reliance on external energy sources and lower their carbon footprint.
The Solar PV system was to be the backbone of this solution, providing clean and renewable energy by capturing sunlight and converting it into electricity. The customer wanted the installation to be efficient and maximised for energy production. Battery Storage was also crucial to the brief, with the requirement to store excess solar energy for use during off-peak hours, ensuring the property could run entirely on self-generated power when needed. Additionally, an Air Source Heat Pump was requested as an environmentally friendly heating solution, ensuring a low-carbon alternative to traditional heating methods.
The customer’s ultimate goal was not only to create a more energy-efficient home but also to significantly reduce their energy bills and overall environmental impact. The integration of Solar PV, Battery Storage, and the Air Source Heat Pump would create a sustainable, eco-friendly solution that would provide long-term savings while contributing to a greener future.
To provide an environmentally friendly and reliable source of energy and heating, we designed and installed a comprehensive solution for our customer in Trapp, Llandeilo. The system features a 4 kWp ground-mounted Solar PV array, comprising 10 high-efficiency 400W solar panels, paired with 5.8 kWh of battery storage, and a DAIKIN Altherma H HT (high-temperature) air source heat pump (ASHP).
Our goal was to create a fully integrated system, optimising the synergy between these components to maximise energy efficiency, reduce reliance on external power sources, and provide sustainable heating. The Solar PV system generates clean electricity by harnessing sunlight, while the battery storage stores excess energy for later use. This ensures the customer can access renewable energy even during cloudy days or at night.
The excess electricity generated by the solar panels is primarily used to power the ASHP, which is responsible for providing heating and hot water. This direct utilisation of solar energy helps reduce the need to draw electricity from the grid, further lowering energy bills and reducing the home's carbon footprint.
On days when solar production is insufficient, the system is designed to automatically draw electricity from the battery storage, ensuring that the ASHP continues to operate efficiently without requiring grid electricity. This setup allows for seamless energy management, ensuring that the property can remain comfortable throughout the year, all while maximising the use of renewable energy sources.
By integrating the Solar PV, battery storage, and ASHP, we've delivered a robust, eco-friendly solution that ensures long-term energy self-sufficiency for our customer, cutting both costs and environmental impact.
