A 70 kW solar PV system on the University of Bath student accommodation Polden buildings across 4 different roofs comprising 254 x 275 Wp Trina honey modules with a Van der Valk lightweight mounting system. The project used 4 SolarEdge inverters and optimisers providing module level monitoring and optimal performance for the system designed. The 3 phase string inverters were mounted just below the roof space meaning the DC cable routes are kept short, reducing voltage losses. A dedicated PV distribution board and generation meter which measures the total kWh generated by the array were included.
"Good team to work with, flexible with installation delays, and always committed to completing the project."
Stephen Andrews, Carbon Reduction Officer, University of Bath
