Project:
Commercial 15kW Solar PV + 10kWhr Battery Storage
Project Scope:
Commercial-scale grid-tie solar PV project for a office & commercial centre in Lenasia, Johannesburg. System was designed to ensure an optimal North-east & north-west solar panel configuration on the building’s 10m high roof.
- 34x 455Wp Tier 1 solar PV mono panels (25 year performance guarantee)
- 1x 15kW grid-tie inverter in 3 phase (5 year warranty)
- 1x 5kW Kodak battery hybrid inverter (3 year warranty)
- 10.5 kWhr Pylontech Li-On batteries (10 year warranty)
- All DC, AC, electrical, structural and mechanical engineering & installation
- Remote monitoring of system via energy meters & wifi-enabled monitoring platform
Location: Lenasia, GP
Completion Date: August 2021
Client Benefits:
- The client has several commercial and office tenants who utilise a significant amount of day-time electricity. By incorporating a solar PV solution that self-generates electricity on site and supplements power sourced from the grid, the client will reduce his municipal electricity bill to the council, while retaining his tenants’ electricity sub-metering as is, thus allowing him to reduce his monthly opex and improve his overall profit
- System will generate over 70kWhrs/day translating to electricity bill savings R5 000 per month through sustainable green energy at the premises, and offsetting more than 25 000 kgs of CO2 per year.
