Background:
Committed to sustainable operations and reducing its environmental impact, Thamesdown Hydrotherapy Pool, based in Swindon, Wiltshire, sought to harness solar energy to lower its energy costs and carbon footprint. The pool partnered with ProStar Energy to install a cutting-edge solar panel system on its facilities.
Solution:
ProStar Energy installed 53 of the JA 565 solar panels with a total capacity of 30 kWp, paired with a 25 kW Solis inverter. This system was designed to optimise energy production and efficiency, ensuring the hydrotherapy pool could significantly offset its energy consumption.
Results:
Annual Production: The solar panel system is predicted to produce 24.5 MWh per year, significantly contributing to the pool's energy needs.
Financial Savings: Thamesdown Hydrotherapy Pool is expected to achieve a payback period of just 4.33 years, based on its initial investment, after which it will continue to see substantial savings on energy bills.
Environmental Impact: The installation will reduce CO2 emissions by 6000 kg annually, demonstrating the pool's commitment to sustainability.
Conclusion:
The installation of solar panels at Thamesdown Hydrotherapy Pool by ProStar Energy showcases how businesses can benefit from renewable energy solutions. With significant financial savings and a notable reduction in CO2 emissions, the project highlights the advantages of investing in solar energy. ProStar Energy is proud to have contributed to this green initiative, supporting Thamesdown Hydrotherapy Pool in their journey towards sustainability and environmental stewardship.
