They chose Good Energy Solar to install a 13 kWp solar array back in 2015 \u2013 and in 2022 they set out a tender to substantially extend this solar array.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"alignwide has-text-align-wide wp-block-paragraph\">The project required planning permission, as it was within the grounds of a Grade II listed building \u2013 which Good Energy Solar assisted with. Planning was approved within three months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading alignwide\"><strong>The Solution: <\/strong>A 102.7 kWp solar array that seamlessly integrates old and new panels<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"alignwide has-text-align-wide wp-block-paragraph\">Good Energy Solar responded to the council\u2019s tender, submitting a design for an additional 89.7 kWp SolarEdge optimised array that seamlessly integrated old and new solar panel systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"alignwide has-text-align-wide wp-block-paragraph\">The council have been delighted with both of their installations and have seen a <strong>30% reduction in the power they draw from the grid,<\/strong> as well as yearly savings of <strong>\u00a322,500.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"alignwide has-text-align-wide wp-block-paragraph\">They upload monthly data<a href=\"https:\/\/www.n-kesteven.gov.uk\/climate-change\/energy\/solar-panels-council-offices\"> to their website<\/a> which shows their ongoing efforts to reduce carbon emissions, as well as displaying their solar statistics in their office reception for visitors to see. &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: Sustainability-minded council on a mission to cut carbon North Kesteven District Council in Lincolnshire have an ambition to&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":3710,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[84],"tags":[],"cs-product":[99],"class_list":["post-5281","case-study","type-case-study","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-public-sector","cs-product-commercial-solar"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.1 -
