As previously stated, the property benefits from an extensive solar and energy storage facilities. The system utilises the energy created by the sun which is stored in an extensive battery facility.

From the owners Here is an explanation from the Owners of how the Solar System works:

This is a totally unique system. It produces a huge amount of power during summer months. It runs most of the bungalow, the exceptions being the oven, tumble dryer, and washing machine. Daily meter readings are taken to show how much energy the inverter has produced and how much grid energy is consumed. This data can be made available on request. This system is completely separate from the grid.

Summer months During the summer months electricity is generated by 30 solar panels (9.5KW approx.) that are mounted on the shed roof. These panels connect to a very large bank of 24 volt batteries (4030AH) via a charge controller and then connect to a 24 volt 5 kva inverter which in turn runs most of the bungalow. Very little grid electric is required during the summer period.

Winter Shorter days means less energy produced so two battery chargers are used at night on off peak electricity. This allows the bungalow to be powered during the day on stored cheap rate electric.

Back-up In the unlikely event that a fault occurs with either the batteries or the inverter, each consumer unit has a changeover switch installed enabling the bungalow to be reverted to the main grid supply.

Maintenance Charging of the batteries is automatic whether being charged by battery charger or solar. The only manual intervention requirement is to check the electrolyte levels. These will need topping up 2-3 times a year with distilled water.
