Energist Solutions Ltd worked with Eon to deliver over 108 kWh of solar PV across Yorkshire Housings Quarry Road site in Huddersfield. We helped the council achieve their energy saving objectives completing the installation of solar panels to 9 social apartment blocks.
Energist Solutions were appointed by Eon and Yorkshire Housing as the renewable partner to deliver a turnkey solution for the project.
Project delivery
- We were responsible for all aspects of the design and installation, from site surveys to commissioning and end-user support.
- A full feasibility study was completed across the site. Having identified 67 properties that would be viable for solar, our in-house design team specified and designed the most cost-effective and efficient systems.
- Under our client’s request bird-proofing systems were integrated in our design for pitched roofs. This was to avoid unnecessary damage to the systems and prolong the cleanliness of the modules.
- The project team managed the complete installation from start to finish including roofing, installation, electrical connection and system commissioning. The installations were completed over an six week period in accordance with H&S standards set by Eon.
- Tenant liaison was managed by the client agent Eon with tenants regularly informed on the progress of the solar panel installations. At completion, a handover pack that included system warranty documents, O&M instructions and aftercare assistance was provided.
Energist Solutions helped drive solar for social housing in Yorkshire. All of the properties at the Quarry Road Site now generating their own clean energy through solar PV, social tenants will now enjoy energy bill savings long into the future. Furthermore, the council will reduce their carbon footprint.
