Project Overview
TEMS Solar completed a residential solar and battery installation in Reading, Berkshire. The system was designed to provide efficient renewable energy generation alongside battery storage, helping the homeowner increase self-consumption and reduce reliance on grid electricity.
System Design & Specifications
The installation delivers a total solar PV capacity of 4.73kWp using 11 JINKO 430W modules. The panel layout was configured to make efficient use of the available roof space across multiple roof face.
A Fox H1 5.0kW hybrid inverter manages the system, seamlessly integrating solar production with battery storage. The Fox ECS 5.8kWh high-voltage battery stores excess energy generated during the day, allowing it to be used during the evening or periods of lower solar output. The battery system also allows the homeowner to take advantage of lower priced off-peak tariffs to charge the system for use during peak times,
