Inverter: Fox 3.7kW Hybrid Inverter
Battery Storage: Fox ECS 5.8KwH

Case Study: Residential Solar & Battery Installation – Reading, Berkshire

Project Overview
On 30 April 2024, TEMS Solar completed a residential solar and battery installation in Reading, Berkshire. The system was designed to provide reliable on-site renewable energy while enabling energy storage for greater household self-sufficiency.

System Design & Specifications
The installation features a total solar PV capacity of 3.92kWp, using 9 JINKO 435W modules. These panels are optimally positioned to maximise solar exposure and overall energy generation throughout the day.

Energy management is handled by a Fox 3.7kW hybrid inverter, efficiently coordinating solar production with a Fox ECS 5.8kWh battery. The battery allows excess solar energy to be stored for later use, reducing reliance on the grid and supporting energy use during evenings or periods of low sunlight.

Installation Highlights
The project demonstrates TEMS Solar’s focus on compact yet effective systems. By pairing a mid-sized solar array with a suitably sized battery, the installation achieves both strong generation and practical storage, delivering maximum value for the homeowner.

Results & Benefits
The completed system offers the following benefits:

• Increased self-consumption of solar energy

• Reduced electricity bills

• Energy storage for evening or low-generation periods

• Efficient use of roof space with a clean, modern installation

Conclusion
This project highlights how a carefully designed solar and battery system can provide tangible energy and cost savings for a residential property. TEMS Solar delivered a tailored solution that balances generation and storage for optimal performance.
