Location: Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire
Installer: TEMS Solar
System Characteristics
Solar PV Capacity:6.23kWp
Panels Installed: 14x JINKO 445W
Inverter: Fox 6Kw Hybrid Inverter
Battery Storage: Fox ECS 11.5kWh HV Battery
Case Study: Multi-Aspect Solar & Battery Installation – Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire
Project Overview
TEMS Solar completed a residential solar and battery installation in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire. The system was designed to maximise renewable energy generation across a complex hipped roof, while incorporating enhanced battery storage to improve self-consumption and reduce reliance on grid electricity.
System Design & Specifications
The installation delivers a total solar PV capacity of 6.23kWp using 14 JINKO 445W modules. The panels were strategically installed across three faces of the hipped roof, enabling balanced solar generation throughout the day and making efficient use of the available roof space.
A Fox 6kW hybrid inverter manages the system, seamlessly integrating solar production with battery storage. The system is paired with a Fox ECS 11.5kWh high-voltage battery, providing increased storage capacity for excess energy generated during daylight hours to be used during evenings or periods of lower solar output.
Installation Highlights
A key feature of this project is the bespoke multi-aspect panel arrangement across three roof faces of a hipped roof. This design captures sunlight from different angles throughout the day, extending the generation window and improving overall system performance. The larger battery capacity further enhances energy flexibility and self-consumption.
Results & Benefits
The installation provides the homeowner with:
Consistent solar generation across multiple roof aspects
Increased self-consumption with enhanced battery storage capacity
Reduced electricity bills and lower reliance on the grid
Optimised use of a complex hipped roof structure
Greater energy flexibility and independence
Conclusion
This project demonstrates how a carefully designed multi-aspect solar installation combined with increased battery storage can maximise energy performance on complex roof layouts. TEMS Solar delivered a tailored solution focused on efficiency, reliability, and long-term energy savings.
