CLIFDEN, ST AUSTELL
A compact solar PV system designed to help offset the electricity used by storage heaters in a St Austell cottage.
The brief
The customer at St Austell wanted to reduce the electricity consumption of the electric storage heaters in their cottage. They needed a small, practical system that could help lower bills without overcomplicating the installation.
We installed a 4-panel, 1.68kW solar PV system, giving the property a straightforward way to generate its own electricity and reduce reliance on the grid.
The result
The system is expected to generate around 1,892kWh per year, helping offset the property’s electricity use and lower running costs.
With an estimated payback period of 6 years and 2 months, this small but effective installation gives the customer a more efficient and cost-effective energy setup.
Why it works

- Solar generation helps offset electric storage heater usage.
- A simple setup with strong long-term savings potential.
