The Background

St Andrews Primary School is based in Boothstown, Manchester. They began making a difference in their energy savings when we installed state-of-the-art LED Lighting. St Andrews wanted to continue improving their green credentials by installing a Solar PV System.

The Solution

Perfect Sense Energy designed a 12.3kW system onto St. Andrew’s roof. The system is set to generate 10.160kWh of free electricity per annum with a combined overall first year income and savings of over £1,100. The system is expected to save 53 tonnes of Co2 over a 25 year period and has a potential overall net income/savings of over £58,000.

The Results & Feedback

This 201kWp system is estimated to generate over 152,000 kWh with a 78% Own Power Consumption. This equates to a total year 1 savings of over £18,500 and equates a total project payback period of just 5 years. This system will save 36 tonnes of CO2 every year, greatly demonstrating Searchlight’s carbon reduction. The power generated can be used for free in the unit and reduces reliance on grid power and rising energy costs.
