The challenge.
Understood.
The available roof space was spread across four areas with different orientations and shading conditions. The challenge was to bring those areas together into a useful generation system, with the health centre’s electricity demand shaping the approach.
Expertise.
In every detail.
We installed 139 LONGi 405 W solar modules across four roof areas, creating a combined array capacity of 56.295 kWp. The roof-parallel arrays used southeast and southwest roof orientations and connected to a three-phase Solis S5-GC50K inverter rated at 50 kW AC. Our team brought the rooftop installation and electrical connections together, completing testing, commissioning and the final handover. Commissioned on 30 June 2023, the system gave the health centre an on-site renewable electricity source, backed by the operating information needed to manage the installation.

The difference.
Delivered.
The health centre now has 56.3 kWp of installed solar capacity supplying renewable electricity on site. Forecast annual generation is 53,556 kWh, with 57.3% expected to be used within the building, showing how the installation can contribute to the centre’s everyday electricity needs.
