One Roof. Multiple Properties. One Smart Solar Solution! ⚡️
Here’s an interesting project we completed earlier this year. We were tasked with finding a solar solution for a developer with slightly different set of requirements from the everyday solar install.
The site consisted of 6 landlord-owned flats and 4 privately owned homes, all sharing the same roof space.
The challenge…. Making sure each property could benefit from solar generation, whilst giving the landlord control and flexibility over how the energy was distributed across the tenanted flats.
Our solution? A 51 panel solar PV installation, carefully designed to serve each of the different properties requirements.
🏢 6 Tenanted Flats
* 21 x solar panels connected to a 10kW SolarEdge PV inverter.
* Integrated with an Allume system, allowing the landlord to allocate the solar energy generated between the 6 flats as required.
🏡 3 Private Houses
* 8 x solar panels installed for each house.
* Each property served by its own 3.68kW SolarEdge inverter, providing an independent solar PV system and full control of their own system for the owner.
🏠 1 Private Maisonette
* 6 x solar panels installed as a dedicated system for the smaller property again powered by a 3.68kW SolarEdge inverter.
The result?
A tailored solar installation that makes the most of the available roof space, whilst meeting the very different needs of the landlord and individual homeowners.
Projects like this show that solar isn’t always as straightforward as putting panels on a roof. Sometimes it’s about finding the right technology, designing the right system and making everything work together.
A great example of how clever design and the right equipment can unlock the benefits of solar for multi-occupancy developments.
