SPRINGFIELD, PLYMOUTH
A solar and battery system designed to help a Plymouth couple power their home, support their electric vehicle, and reduce their reliance on the grid.
- System installed
- 12 panels
- 5.04kW solar PV system
- Battery storage
- 5.8kWh
- Stored solar energy for later use
- Annual generation
- 5,146kWh
- Estimated yearly solar output
- Payback period
- 6 years, 9 months
- Estimated return on investment
The brief
The couple at Springfield wanted to make better use of solar energy at home, with a particular focus on supporting their electric vehicle. They needed a system that could generate clean electricity during the day, store excess energy, and help reduce the amount they needed to buy from the grid.
The result
The finished system is expected to generate around 5,146kWh per year. That solar energy can help power the home, support EV charging, and reduce day-to-day reliance on grid electricity.
With an estimated payback period of 6 years and 9 months, the Springfield installation is set up for strong long-term savings and a more efficient home energy setup.
Why it works
- Solar generation supports both home electricity and EV use.
- Battery storage helps the household use more of their own solar power.
- The system reduces grid reliance and improves long-term energy resilience.
