Case Study: Multi-Face Solar & Battery Installation – Reading, Berkshire

Project Overview
On 26 April 2024, TEMS Solar completed a high-capacity residential solar and battery installation in Reading, Berkshire. The system was designed to maximise energy generation by utilising multiple roof faces, providing both renewable power and storage for the household.

System Design & Specifications
The installation delivers a total solar PV capacity of 7.83kWp, using 18 JINKO 435W modules. The panels were strategically distributed across several roof aspects to capture sunlight throughout the day, improving overall efficiency and output.

A Fox 6kW hybrid inverter manages energy production and storage, while a Fox ECS 5.8kWh battery allows surplus energy to be stored for use during evenings or periods of low generation. This combination ensures the homeowner can maximise self-consumption and reduce reliance on grid electricity.

Installation Highlights
Key to this project was the multi-face panel arrangement, which optimises the available roof space and increases total generation capacity. By considering the property’s orientation and roof geometry, TEMS Solar delivered a system tailored for maximum performance.

Results & Benefits
The installation provides the homeowner with:

• Increased renewable energy generation throughout the day

• Greater energy independence and reduced electricity bills

• Efficient use of available roof space

• Energy storage for evening or low-generation periods

Conclusion
This project demonstrates how a well-designed, multi-face solar system paired with battery storage can deliver significant energy and financial benefits. TEMS Solar successfully combined smart design with high-quality components to create a future-ready solution for the home.
