Case Study: Solar & Battery Installation – Crowthorne, Berkshire

Project Overview
TEMS Solar completed a residential solar and battery installation in Crowthorne, Berkshire. The system was designed to maximise renewable energy generation from a favourable south-facing roof, while incorporating battery storage to improve self-consumption and reduce reliance on grid electricity.

System Design & Specifications
The installation provides a total solar PV capacity of 4.79kWp using 11 JINKO 435W modules. The panels were installed on a south-facing roof, ensuring excellent solar exposure and strong, consistent energy generation throughout the day.

A Fox H1 5.0kW hybrid inverter manages the system, seamlessly integrating solar production with battery storage. The Fox ECS 5.8kWh high-voltage battery stores excess energy generated during daylight hours, allowing it to be used during the evening or periods of lower solar output.

Installation Highlights
A key feature of this project is the south-facing panel orientation, which provides optimal conditions for solar generation. Combined with integrated battery storage, the system enables the homeowner to maximise the use of self-generated renewable energy.

Results & Benefits
The installation provides the homeowner with:

Strong and consistent solar generation from a south-facing roof
Increased self-consumption through integrated battery storage
Reduced electricity bills and lower reliance on the grid
Efficient use of available roof space
Smart energy management with hybrid inverter technology

Conclusion
This project demonstrates how a well-oriented roof combined with battery storage can deliver excellent solar performance and long-term energy savings. TEMS Solar provided a tailored solution designed to maximise efficiency, energy independence, and overall system performance.
