But, through partnering with Good Energy, they embraced sustainability in a more tangible way. By installing a rooftop solar system, they aimed to cut carbon emissions, lower energy bills, and further mitigate the environmental impact of their operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading alignwide\"><strong>The Solution: <\/strong>A 192-panel solar array that pays back in more ways than one<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"alignwide has-text-align-wide\">As principal contractors, Good Energy Solar implemented an 80.64KW solar energy system, incorporating cutting-edge technology such as 192 Jinko solar panels, 96 optimisers, and 2 SolarEdge inverters.&nbsp;Since going live, the system has delivered a whopping 73,783 kWh of power, saving the university an impressive \u00a320,290.33 on electricity bills. What\u2019s more, the initiative has significantly shrunk the university&#8217;s carbon footprint, reducing annual CO2 emissions by 41,061 kilograms (41 tonnes).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"alignwide has-text-align-wide\">Through future-proofing their infrastructure, Bournemouth University reinforced their fiscal responsibility to stakeholders and governing bodies, while showcasing their dedication to sustainable practices to their students and staff.&nbsp;Leading by example, their campus facilities now help meet broader climate targets, as recognised in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bournemouth.ac.uk\/about\/welcome-bu\/rankings-awards#:~:text=Times%20Higher%20Education%20(THE)%20Impact,also%208th%20in%20the%20UK.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2024\u2019s Times Higher Education Impact Rankings<\/a>, which placed Bournemouth University joint 39th in the world for its progress on the UN Sustainable Development Goals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<section class=\"cta-bar wp-block has-dark-grey-background-color has-background alignwide\">\n        <div class=\"cta-bar__inner\">\n                    <h2 id=\"get-your-commercial-solar-quote-today\" class=\"cta-bar__heading\">Get your commercial solar quote today<\/h2>        \n                    <div class=\"cta-bar__content\">\n                    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodenergy.co.uk\/business\/commercial-solar-panels-for-businesses\/#enquiry-form\"  class=\"g-button\">\n                        <span class=\"link__text\">\n            Get a quote        <\/span>\n            <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The challenge: Eco-conscious university driving down emissions and energy costs&nbsp; Bournemouth University, located in Dorset, is dedicated to providing enriching,&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":62,"featured_media":5295,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[94],"tags":[],"cs-product":[99],"class_list":["post-5271","case-study","type-case-study","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-schools-universities","cs-product-commercial-solar"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
