The Project
Procast designed and installed in an extremely short timescale a Photovoltaic system at Strathaven Airfield with battery storage to assist withthe running costs of the business. The specifications comprised survey,design, installation and commissioning of a 10.2KW PV array with a 15KWH Sonnen battery with Sonnen monitoring platform.
Overview
The Approach
Procast had to work closely with the local planning department to overcome complex challenges. Extensive modelling had to be carried out to ensure compliance and evidence that the designs would not impact pilots with light reflection on flight paths. The system was designed to ensure the majority of the power created was used day to day so our client is now a “pro-sumer”
The Outcome
The client is delighted with the outcome and the monitoring platform shows that 80% of the power generated is being used. The clients have reduced electricity running costs and are very happy. They are now considering an installation of an air source heat pump system.
