Location: Rushden, Northamptonshire
Installer: TEMS Solar
System Characteristics:
Solar PV Capacity: 7.83kWp
Panels Installed: 18x JINKO 435W
Inverter: Fox 6Kw Hybrid Inverter
Battery Storage: Fox ECS 5.8kW High Voltage Battery System
Case Study: Multi-Aspect Solar & Battery Installation – Rushden, Northamptonshire
Project Overview
TEMS Solar completed a residential solar and battery installation in Rushden, Northamptonshire. The system was designed to maximise renewable energy generation across multiple roof aspects, while integrating battery storage to improve self-consumption and reduce reliance on grid electricity.
System Design & Specifications
The installation delivers a total solar PV capacity of 7.83kWp using 18 JINKO 435W modules. The panels were installed across east and west-facing roof sections, creating a balanced generation profile that captures sunlight from morning through to evening.
A Fox 6kW hybrid inverter manages the system, efficiently integrating solar production with battery storage. The Fox ECS 5.8kWh high-voltage battery system stores excess energy generated during the day, allowing it to be used during the evening or periods of lower solar output, as well as storing cheaper, off-peak grid energy for use throughout the day.
Installation Highlights
A key feature of this installation is the east-west roof configuration, which helps extend solar generation across the full day. This approach improves energy yield consistency and makes effective use of available roof space.
Results & Benefits
The installation provides the homeowner with:
Extended solar generation from morning through to evening
Increased self-consumption through integrated battery storage
Reduced electricity bills and lower reliance on the grid
Optimised use of east and west-facing roof space
Smart energy management with hybrid inverter technology
Conclusion
This project demonstrates how east-west solar installations can deliver highly efficient and balanced energy generation. TEMS Solar provided a tailored solution focused on performance, practicality, and long-term energy savings.
