Solar Kingdom has completed its largest ever roof integrated system.
The company fitted a single roof with 60 panels in the process of creating significant savings in installation costs.
The work was carried out for Fife entrepreneur Craig Muir at Strathore Business Park, near Kirkaldy.
It was completed as part of a major refurbishment.
By fitting the solar panels as part of the building renovation, all installation work on the roof became cost neutral.
Solar Kingdom Managing Director, Peter Randall, said:“This type of work provides confirmation that by adjusting to new market conditions opportunities still exist to undertake exciting projects for well-informed clients.
“Being small we already have the advantage of tightly contained operating costs. We are able to reflect these in flexibility of approach and value for money solutions.
“This project demonstrates the positive outcomes we are able to provide to our clients”.
The high level of electricity use across the site means self-consumption of generated power will also be very high.
Export to the grid is expected to be less than 10% of total generation.
Even with the much reduced Feed In Tariff, the combination of cost effective installation, savings on energy bills, and Feed In Tariff revenue means likely payback will be around seven years, with a return on investment well in to double digits.
