Domestic Solar & Battery Installation Case Study – Windsor, Berkshire
Windsor, located in Berkshire, is a historic and well-connected town in the South East of England. The area benefits from favourable solar conditions compared to much of the UK, and its mix of traditional and modern housing often presents opportunities for creative solar designs—particularly where multiple roof faces can be utilised to maximise energy generation.
Project Overview
This domestic solar and battery installation was completed by TEMS Solar on 9th May 2024, delivering a high-capacity, tailored energy solution designed to make the most of the property’s available roof space.
System Specifications
System Type: Domestic Solar & Battery Installation
Solar PV Capacity: 8.7 kWp
Panels Installed: 20 × Jinko 435W modules
Inverter: Fox 6kW Hybrid Inverter
Battery Storage: Fox ECS – 5.8 kWh
System Design & Installation
This system features 20 high-efficiency Jinko 435W panels installed across four different roof faces. This multi-orientation design ensures that the system captures sunlight at different times of the day, from early morning through to late afternoon and evening.
By distributing panels across multiple aspects, the installation maximises the use of available roof space while smoothing generation output, reducing reliance on a single peak production window.
The system is managed by a Fox 6kW hybrid inverter, which integrates seamlessly with the 5.8 kWh Fox ECS battery storage. Excess energy generated during the day is stored for use during peak demand periods, improving overall system efficiency.
Performance & Benefits
This installation delivers a range of key advantages:
Maximises roof space utilisation across four orientations
Provides more consistent energy generation throughout the day
Increases self-consumption through integrated battery storage
Reduces dependence on grid electricity
Lowers energy costs and carbon footprint
The combination of a large system size and intelligent panel placement ensures strong overall performance despite the complexity of the roof layout.
Conclusion
This project demonstrates how multi-roof installations can unlock greater solar potential for residential properties. With a carefully considered design and professional installation by TEMS Solar, the system delivers both high energy output and long-term financial and environmental benefits.
