Project Overview
ProStar Energy completed a solar PV installation for Fullerians Rugby Club in Watford, Hertfordshire. As an active sports club with high daytime energy usage, Fullerians wanted to reduce their operational costs and carbon footprint. Our team delivered a clean energy solution that offered both immediate savings and long-term sustainability benefits.
The Installation
The club selected a rooftop solar PV system designed to optimise self-consumption. The installation included:
- Panel Power Output: 51 kW
- Number of Panels: 85
- Inverter Size: 40 kW
- Battery Storage Capacity: 9 kWh
This tailored system enables the club to generate and store clean energy, lowering reliance on grid electricity during peak times.
Financial Highlights
The solar solution provided both environmental and financial returns, including:
- Total System Cost: £30,000
- Year 1 Savings (Ex VAT): £8,985
- Payback Period: 3 years 3 months
- Return on Investment (ROI): 30.5%
These savings significantly reduce the club's energy bills, freeing up funds to support other community initiatives.
Project Outcome
The completed installation now delivers consistent energy savings while reducing the club’s carbon emissions. With a strong ROI and short payback period, Fullerians Rugby Club is on track to enjoy decades of energy cost reductions.
ProStar Energy managed the entire project, from initial design through to installation and final handover. The system was installed with minimal disruption to the club’s activities, ensuring a smooth transition to clean energy.
“We’re absolutely thrilled with the outcome. The savings are already clear, and it’s great to know we’re doing our bit for the environment too.”
