This project came to an end on May 30th 2008. The renewable energy plant has been packed and shipped to a new site. Live power data from the new site will become available shortly. Also, look out for two new projects which will be added to this web site soon.
The solar energy plant consisted of an array of twelve solar photo-voltaic panels, each rated at 162 watts. This provided a total power rating of 1.9 kilo watts. The power generated by this installation was fed directly into the national grid to offset the power used on site. Alongside our 600 watt wind turbine a maximum power of 2.5 kW was available.
The system has generated a total of 585 kWh since installation at the end of November.
The following shows the total power generated in kWh, on each day in 2008 up to the end of May, when it was taken down.
