Project Overview
Ace Solar Energy were appointed to design, install and commission a Solar PV system to drastically reduce the client’s dependency on the electricity grid, while maximising the use of available roof space across fourteen roof apexes. The completed system feeds both office and manufacturing operations, supporting the client’s sustainability goals while providing a fully monitorable, panel-level optimised renewable energy solution.
Working collaboratively with the client and roofing contractor during the roof over-cladding works, Ace Solar Energy managed the Solar PV design and installation process to ensure seamless integration, safe delivery and long-term performance. The system incorporates SolarEdge optimised technology, delivering panel-level monitoring, diagnostics, reporting functionality and a reception kiosk display showing live site generation.
Scope of Works
Solar PV System Design & Installation
Design, installation and commissioning of a 741kWp SolarEdge PV system spanning fourteen roof apexes.
Integrated SolarEdge Monitoring Technology
Installation of an optimised SolarEdge system providing:
- Panel level monitoring
- Performance diagnostics and reporting
- Optimised energy generation
- Live reception kiosk display of site generation
Collaborative Roof Integration
Working in partnership with the client and roofing contractor during over-cladding works to ensure the Solar PV installation was integrated safely and effectively as part of the wider project.
Energy Reduction & Sustainability Strategy
Implementation of a renewable energy solution designed to reduce overall grid consumption while supporting the company’s environmental commitments and green credentials.
Challenges Presented
Complex Multi-Roof Installation
Installing across fourteen roof apexes required careful system design and coordination to optimise generation while accommodating varying roof layouts.
Live Site Logistics & Safety
The planning and execution of the project required careful management to ensure the safe movement of personnel and materials throughout the installation.
Coordination with Concurrent Roofing Works
Working alongside the roofing contractor demanded detailed programming and close collaboration to ensure both works progressed efficiently.
Performance and Monitoring Requirements
Delivering a system that combined strong generation performance with advanced monitoring and reporting functionality was a key project requirement.
Solutions Implemented
Optimised System Design
A bespoke system design was developed to maximise the SolarEdge inverters and the vast roof space available. Installing 1647 panels, individually monitorable online.
Collaborative Project Delivery
Close coordination between Ace Solar Energy, the client and the roofing contractor enabled a streamlined installation process and successful integration with the over-cladding works.
Advanced Monitoring & Diagnostics
The use of SolarEdge optimised technology provided detailed panel-level monitoring, diagnostics and reporting to support long-term system performance.
Safety-Led Installation Approach
Detailed planning and site management ensured safe installation practices, protecting both personnel and materials while maintaining project programme requirements.
