Large Commercial Solar PV Installation in Leicester for Care Home Group

We had the pleasure of working with Care Home Provider Claredon Group on a large commercial solar panel installation.

Abdul, Operations Director, was searching for a cost-effective, environmentally friendly way to save on their electricity costs when he came across renewable energy.

With having renewable targets, they wanted to continue their contribution towards helping the planet, using efficient sources to save costs and help protect the

environment.

Before Abdul decided to work with GL Electrical, he researched a variety of companies and alternative energy saving solutions such as rainwater harvest systems and biomass boilers. However, as with many projects, budget was a major factor and the biggest priority was finding the right products and services to achieve energy-saving goals.

Over a two week’s working on numerous sites Leicester, our dedicated team installed 402 Solar panels.

The system will provide 132,000kWh of electricity each year, the equivalent of planting 2,394 every 12 months. Solar panels have a long life, and over 30 years these panels will save care group over £668,594.02. Abdul was delighted with how the installation was delivered, saying: “Everything is in working order and it was done in a timely fashion.” He was also impressed with the work-ethic of the installation team adding: “With the installation being done in February I was surprised at how hard the guys worked fitting these solar panels in all weather. They just cracked on!”

Care Group are currently saving 33% on their electricity and Abdul feels confident they will be able to achieve their energy-saving goals.
