Case Study: Solar & Battery Installation – Bracknell, Berkshire
Project Overview
TEMS Solar delivered a high-performance residential solar and battery installation in Bracknell, a modern town in the South East known for its growing residential developments and strong suitability for solar generation. The system was designed to maximise available roof space and provide consistent renewable energy throughout the day.
System Design & Specifications
The installation delivers a total solar PV capacity of 8.7kWp, using 20 × Jinko 435W Solar Panels. Due to the property’s low-pitch roof, panels were installed across both roof aspects to maximise generation area and capture sunlight from morning through to evening.
A Fox ESS 6kW Hybrid Inverter manages energy generation and household consumption, while a Fox ESS ECS 8.6kWh Battery stores excess energy for use during evenings or lower generation periods. This integrated approach ensures efficient energy use and improved system performance.
Installation Highlights
The project demonstrates how system design can adapt to structural limitations while maintaining strong output. By utilising both sides of the roof, TEMS Solar maximised generation potential and created a more balanced production profile across the day.
The inclusion of a larger-capacity battery further enhances the system, allowing greater retention of solar energy and reducing reliance on imported electricity.
Results & Benefits
The completed installation provides the homeowner with:
High renewable energy generation across the day
Reduced electricity bills and carbon emissions
Increased self-consumption through battery storage
Greater energy independence from the grid
Conclusion
This installation highlights how a well-designed solar and battery system can overcome site constraints and still deliver excellent performance. TEMS Solar provided a tailored solution that maximises available space, improves energy efficiency, and supports long-term sustainability for homes in Bracknell.
