Solar PV Installation – Manufacturing Facility, Hereford
Solar PV Installation – Manufacturing Facility, Hereford
Overview:
A commercial manufacturing facility based on an industrial estate in Hereford approached MJS Energy to reduce high electricity costs driven by intensive production processes. The client required a solution that would significantly cut operational expenses while delivering a fast
return on investment.
Initial Assessment & Feasibility Study:
MJS Energy conducted a full feasibility study of the site, reviewing detailed electricity consumption data. The analysis confirmed consistently high energy usage across production, making the site an ideal candidate for a large-scale solar PV system. Based on this, a system was designed specifically to match the facility’s demand profile, with a projected return on investment in under two years.
System Design & Installation
The final system specification included:
- Inverters: 2 × 60kW Solis Inverters and 1 × 25kW Solis Inverter
- Solar Array: 408 × 450W all-black solar panels
- Total Capacity: Approximately 183.6kWp
- Mounting: Roof-mounted across the facility’s buildings
The system was designed to maximise on-site energy generation during peak production hours, directly offsetting the facility’s grid consumption.
Outcome
The installation now provides a substantial proportion of the site’s energy needs, significantly reducing electricity bills. By aligning solar generation with operational demand, the systemdelivers immediate cost savings and is on track to achieve a return on investment in less than two years.
Conclusion:
This project highlights the impact of a well-designed commercial solar PV system for manufacturing environments with high energy demand. By leveraging available roof space and tailoring the system to consumption patterns, MJS Energy delivered a solution that improves efficiency, reduces costs, and strengthens long-term energy resilience.
