We recently enjoyed working with the Thorpe family, who own a beautiful detached property in Northampton, where they opted for solar panel installation.
They reached out to us as they were interested in exploring solar panel installation in Northampton to reduce their energy bills and become more self-sufficient.
After a thorough consultation, we designed a bespoke solar panel system to meet their needs.
The Solution & Installation
We recommended a 5.16 kw solar system, which included the following components to maximise efficiency and long-term performance:
- SunPower Maxeon panels: Offering outstanding performance and backed by a 40-year warranty.
- SolarEdge Optimised Inverter: For increased energy output and system reliability.
- Tesla Powerwall 2: Installed later, providing advanced energy storage to maximise self consumption and reduce reliance on the grid during peak hours.
We designed the entire system to meet their annual energy demand, and since installation, the system has far exceeded expectations.
The installation took place from March to June 2022, with a completion time of 3 months.
Our expert installation team, including Luke, Will, Darren, Linton, and Jake, installed the system to the highest standards
The Results & Benefits
Since going live, the system has generated over 13,000 kWh, well beyond the expected output of 5,000 kWh. As a result, the Thorpe family has saved over 60% on their energy bills.
Additionally, the Tesla Powerwall 2 has stored over 3,700 kWh of surplus energy for use during peak rate hours, allowing the family to benefit from even greater savings…
- Over 60% savings on energy bills.
- Surplus solar generation of 13,000 kWh, far exceeding initial projections.
- Efficient storage of energy with the Tesla Powerwall 2 to power their home during high cost periods.
- A long term, reliable solar energy system backed by premium products and a strong warranty.
