Case Study: Multi-Aspect Solar & Battery Installation – Bracknell, Berkshire

Project Overview
TEMS Solar completed a residential solar and battery installation in Bracknell, Berkshire. The system was designed to maximise renewable energy generation across a hipped 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 positioned across south and east-facing sections of the hipped roof, enabling strong generation from morning through to peak daytime conditions.

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.

Installation Highlights
A key feature of this installation is the use of a hipped roof with multiple aspects. By utilising both south and east-facing surfaces, TEMS Solar created a balanced generation profile that maximises sunlight capture throughout the day while making full use of the available roof space.

Results & Benefits
The installation provides the homeowner with:

• Strong and consistent solar generation across the day

• Increased self-consumption through integrated battery storage

• Reduced electricity bills and lower reliance on the grid

• Optimised use of a hipped roof’s multiple aspects

Conclusion
This project highlights how multi-aspect roof designs can be effectively utilised to enhance solar performance. TEMS Solar delivered a tailored solution that maximises efficiency, energy independence, and long-term cost savings.
