Following a survey of the premises BHESCo designed a detailed plan to lower energy use and fuel bills. The property is located at the top of a hill and has a south facing roof, making it an ideal candidate for rooftop solar PV. We engaged EcoSphere to install a 4kW photovoltaic system, which is expected to generate 4,061kWh of electricity each year.
To reduce energy use, we recruited Downs Energy to install loft insulation, and Lightfoot LED to replace the lighting system with LEDs. Finally, we added reflector panels to all external wall radiators to reduce heat loss in winter.
We expect the energy saving measures to reduce consumption by 7,500kWh of power each year, which combined with the electricity generated by the solar panels will reduce electricity bills by 75%.
