Location: Swindon, Wiltshire
Installer: TEMS Solar
System Characteristics:
Solar PV Capacity: 5.16kWp
Panels Installed: 12x Jinko 430W
Inverter: GivEnergy Hybrid HY 5.0kW
Battery Storage: GivEnergy 9.5kWh
Case Study: Solar & Battery Installation – Swindon, Wiltshire
Project Overview
TEMS Solar completed a residential solar and battery installation in Swindon, Wiltshire. The system was designed to provide efficient renewable energy generation alongside battery storage, helping the homeowner maximise self-consumption and reduce reliance on grid electricity.
System Design & Specifications
The installation delivers a total solar PV capacity of 5.16kWp using 12 Jinko 430W modules. The array was designed to make effective use of the available roof space while providing reliable and consistent solar energy generation.
A GivEnergy Hybrid HY 5.0kW inverter manages the system, integrating solar production with battery storage. The system is paired with a GivEnergy 9.5kWh battery, allowing surplus energy generated during daylight hours to be stored and used during the evening or periods of lower solar output.
Installation Highlights
The combination of a well-sized solar array and substantial battery storage provides a balanced and flexible renewable energy solution. The 9.5kWh battery enables the homeowner to retain more of the energy generated on-site, increasing self-consumption and reducing reliance on grid electricity.
Results & Benefits
The installation provides the homeowner with:
Efficient renewable energy generation from a 5.16kWp solar array
Increased self-consumption through high-capacity battery storage
Reduced electricity bills and lower reliance on the grid
Greater flexibility in household energy usage
Smart energy management with GivEnergy hybrid technology
Conclusion
This project demonstrates the benefits of combining a well-sized solar PV system with substantial battery storage. TEMS Solar delivered a tailored solution designed to maximise renewable energy use, efficiency, and long-term household energy performance.
