Successful Solar Panel Installation for V6E Avonmouth by Orca Renewables

Location: Unit 6A, Severnside Trading Estate, St. Andrews Road, Avonmouth,

Orca Renewables installed a new solar energy system for V6E Avonmouth, which is now up and running successfully. This project marks a significant step towards sustainable energy solutions for commercial buildings in the Avonmouth area.

Project Overview: Solar Energy Solutions

We put a 26.145 kW solar power system on the roof of V6E Avonmouth. It has 63 high-efficiency JAM54S30-415/MR 415 Watt panels. The system will generate 20,938 kWh of clean energy annually. This will significantly decrease the building’s reliance on grid electricity and reduce its carbon footprint.

Key System Features: 

  • Total System Size: 26.145 kW
  • Panels Used: 63 x JAM54S30-415/MR 415 Watt panels
  • Annual Energy Production: 20,938 kWh
  • Estimated Annual Electricity Bill Savings: £7,635

Environmental Impact:

The installation of this solar energy system will have a substantial positive impact on the environment. Every year, the system will prevent around 5 tons of CO₂ emissions. This is the same as planting 1,005 trees or avoiding 112 long-haul flights. During its lifetime, the system will balance out the carbon emissions from driving 156,285 KM.

System Performance and Financial Benefits

The solar energy system at V6E Avonmouth will supply all the site’s energy needs from solar power. The site will use about 57% of the energy, and send the remaining 43% back to the grid. The advanced SOLIS inverter from Ningbo Ginlong Technologies, rated at 20 kW, facilitates efficient energy management.

The financial projections for V6E Avonmouth are highly favourable. The system will pay for itself in just over two years and save £265,792 over its lifetime. This equals a return on investment of 1,705% and a rate of return of 54.8%.

Warranties and Assurances:

The solar panels have a 12-year product warranty. They also come with a 25-year performance warranty. These warranties ensure that the panels will work well for a long time. The inverter at V6E Avonmouth is protected by a 5-year warranty, giving peace of mind and strong protection against any problems.

Finishing this project shows Orca Renewables’ dedication to offering advanced solar energy solutions that meet the needs of businesses. By transitioning to solar power, V6E Avonmouth is not only taking a proactive step towards sustainability, but also achieving significant financial savings.
