120kW Agricultural Installation

Shrewsbury

Our Solar Director was asked to design, install and project manage a 120kW Solar PV installation on a barn roof in the Shrewsbury area.

The barn was a new portal frame construction with a standing seam roof. Our client was an established farmer contracted to supply wheat to a major national supermarket, and he was looking to diversify his revenue streams.

SMA Inverters were specified for this project, in this case 6 x 20kW inverters were used in the plant room. The 120kW array produces over 100,000 kWh of electricity per year and a healthy saving for the farmer, plus an income from surplus power sold into the local electrical grid.
