10KWP SOLAR ARRAY INSTALLED AT THE AYLESBURY TOWN COUNCIL OFFICES

 

 

 

 A 60 panel solar array was installed this week on the roof of the Town Council’s town hall in the centre of Aylesbury. The array was commissioned and installed by local company Ardenham Energy who installed the extensive array and associated controls in under six days.

 

The installation was undertaken following the award of a Low Carbon Building Programme Phase 2 Grant of 50% of the total project costs of £50,000. The other £25,000 was funded by a 7 year interest free loan from the Bucks County Council’s Sustainability Fund with an expected payback period of approximately 8 years.

 

The electricity generated is synchronised with the grid supply via an inverter and will be used to supply clean energy to the town hall, as well as exporting to the grid for use elsewhere when there is more energy produced than is necessary in the property.

 

The 10kWp array is almost silent in operation and will generate around 9,500kWh of greenhouse gas free electricity each year. The installation includes a display in the reception area which will outline real time energy production as well as cumulative kWh and Co2 savings.

 

Cllr Mark Willis said “The Town Council signed up to the Nottingham Agreement last year and we would like to use this installation to demonstrate how effective these systems are and that they can be installed even in conservation areas”.
