An older farmhouse with outbuildings, now running workshop tools and water pumps on sunshine.
Location
Example Meadows
System size
12.0 kWp
Panels
30 tier one panels
Battery
15 kWh LFP
Yearly output
13,400 kWh
The brief
The owners run a small workshop and irrigation pumps alongside the main house. Grid supply at the end of the lane is weak and outages happen a few times each winter.
What we installed
Panels split between the house roof and a barn, a 15 kWh battery and a whole-home backup gateway so the house and workshop stay powered during cuts.
- Old wiring upgraded before connection
- Whole-home backup with automatic switchover
- Pump timers moved to midday sun hours
The result
The farmhouse now covers around 80 percent of its use from its own roofs, and the last two winter outages went unnoticed.
Yearly savings
About 2,300 per year
Estimated from the first twelve months of monitoring data at current tariffs. Your own figures depend on roof, usage and tariff.
