We installed a 3.54 kWp system for a the Robles family in Tottington, Bury, Lancashire, having already had solar thermal modules installed on their home they approached us looking for a 4 kWp system, wanting to minimise their payback time through the feed-in tariff, and having subsidised the majority of their hot water needs through renewables, they were looking to achieve a similar target with their electricity.

With the existing solar thermal system in place, space on their south facing roof was slightly limited so we had to opt for a high output module to get maximum system performance. The final system was 12 x TG Solar HSTAF24295M.72 295W solar modules and a Diehl 3800s solar inverter, the TG Solar modules also had the added benefit of bypass diodes integrated in them which would allow a shading issue caused by a flue on the roof to be minimised.

The outcome of the project was a 3.54 kWp system, which will generate approximately 2600 kWh per year and earn the family around £1100.00 in revenue from feed-in tariff generation alone, not to mention what they will save on their electricity bills and any additional export revenue.

We designed this system for the Yates family home in Lymm, Cheshire; the family wanted to generate as much power as possible and wanted to generate about 50% of their household requirements.

The building has an almost perfect south facing aspect and was tied-in with a loft conversion and new roof, so the integrity of the site could not have been better; the only consideration was roof shape, as there is a pike on the left of centre running two thirds of the way up the roof.

Because of this we had to choose our PV panels carefully and opted for Sanyo HIT240HDE4 panels, as they offer a compact size panel whilst offering exceptional power and efficiency.

The final system design was a 2.4 kWp system using 10 x Sanyo panels and Fronius inverter.

System Size 2.4 kWp

Estimated annual Generation (kWh): 1,914

Annual revenue;

• Feed-in tariff: £790.48
• Savings on electriciy imported (£0.12 per unit): £229.68
• Total annual revenue: £1,020.16

Total revenue over 25 years;

• Feed-in tariff: £19,762.05
• Savings on electriciy imported (£0.12 per unit): £5,742.00

Total revenue: £25,504.05

Heres what Dr Yates had to say about JSC Installations:

Mr John Curry of JSC installations has done a number of projects for us in recent years including the installation of a garage alarm; a house wide system of smoke detectors; the electrical installations in a loft conversion and most recently the entire installation of a solar photovoltaic system.

We have been very impressed with the quality of his workmanship and the very reasonable costs. It has been particularly nice to receive the installation certificates very promptly on completion of the work.

I would thoroghly recommend JSC installations and I would certainly use them again for any future work.

Dr Martin Yates,
