David McMullan: Lowering Farm Costs

The Brief

Sustainable Farming

David McMullan approached us as he wanted to reduce his farm's dependency on the grid and lower electricity costs.

As a forward-thinking farmer, David recognised the potential benefits of incorporating solar energy into his operations to achieve a more sustainable and cost-effective energy solution.

While he was aware of the advantages of solar panels, David was unsure about the specific setup that would work best for his needs. That's when he turned to us for guidance.

We supplied the necessary equipment, and Solar Power NI handled the installation, tailoring a solution to meet David's exact requirements.

Our Solution

Minimising Operational Costs

The project installation and commissioning took three days. The primary goal was to enhance the farm's electrical production efficiency by allowing it to generate its own power.

Doing this would help David minimise the operational costs of using machinery and other electrical equipment.

Installed: 74 classic glass foil pure solar panels

Mounting Kit: Schweizer trapezoidal mounting kit

Inverters: Fronius single-phase inverters

Client Benefits

The Perfect Solution

By installing solar panels and inverters, David has significantly reduced his electricity bills. The solar array generates enough power to cover a substantial portion of the farm's energy needs, particularly during peak sunlight.

This shift to solar energy has lowered operational costs and provided a more predictable and stable energy expenditure, aiding in better financial planning and budgeting for the farm.

Why Make The Switch To Solar?

Self-Sufficiency: The farm operates almost entirely on solar power for several days, reducing the need to draw electricity from the grid.

Environmental Impact: The installation has considerably lowered the farm’s carbon footprint, contributing to local environmental conservation efforts.

Efficiency: The high-quality Fronius single-phase inverters are renowned for their efficiency and reliability, ensuring optimal solar array performance.

Client Feedback

David has been extremely pleased with the installation process and the benefits to his farm. He commended our team's professionalism and the seamless integration of the solar panels into the farm's existing infrastructure.
