Farnsfield Village Hall, Notts

We were pleased to be contacted by the parish council of Farnsfield, and engaged with members to present a Solar PV solution for their Village Hall. The proposed generation would enable the building to take 71% of its energy from solar whilst, critically, reducing the annual electricity bill.
We proposed a 8.7kWp capacity system which would see a payback within 8 years of the initial investment. We installed x20 435watt panels onto the tiled roof, inverted using a 8kW SolaX power Inverter. The addition of x3 5.8kWh SolaX Power batteries would benefit in being able to store excess energy generated. We opted for a total of 15.66kWh of battery storage. Our initial design estimated an annual generation of 5,698kWh per annum. Our client would have 67% self-consumption, whilst exporting 33% to the grid.
Our GB Solar installation team were on site for a total of 3 days. Our roofing team completed a meticulous job in mounting 20 panels and protecting with bird deterrent. Our electricians worked hard to ensure the 3-phase wiring was fully installed and commissioned prior to leaving site. As always, our service was finalised with a detailed handover pack and local DNO notifications under the G98 process. GB Solar are pleased provide on-going support to our clients if they should ever need it.

“I first met Steve Brown to find out whether solar panels would be useful on Farnsfield Village Centre. After a visit to site, we received a detailed quote for the work and there were special considerations such as the Village Centre being in a conservation area. With Steve’s expert knowledge we were able to navigate the relevant regulations. Steve was reliable and respectful, while the team completed all work on time and in budget. I would highly recommend GB Solar.”
