installed two SolarEdge SE 33.3k inverters and 83 SolarEdge P801 Optimisers; coupled with 166 Longi Solar 375w PV Modules
Zero disruption to staff members
Projected to save more than £300,000 on energy bills in 25 years
The Process
01 Unintrusive Installation Plan
I&N Fabrications’ site is an engineering production facility that works 24/7, so to ensure there was no disruption, our team had to work closely with the client to discuss and agree on logistics, access and egress. Before installation, we created a full-site compound with scaffold access and handrails to provide our installation team safe access to working areas.
02 Efficient Solar Energy System
Alongside our trusted project development partners Green Shield Group, we then installed two SolarEdge SE 33.3k inverters and 83 SolarEdge P801 Optimisers; coupled with 166 Longi Solar 375w PV Modules to complete their commercial solar panel system.
Could your business benefit from solar energy?
The Result
I&N Fabrications is now generating its own electricity in a more future-proof way, which will see savings of more than £300,000 on its energy bills in 25 years, freeing up critical capex funding to expand production facilities.
£311,066 on their energy bills over 25 years.
