About Client
A homeowner in Penrith wanted to maximise self-consumption of solar energy, reduce electricity costs and support electric vehicle charging with renewable energy.
Challenges
The client required an aesthetically pleasing solar installation that integrated into the roof while also providing energy storage and EV charging capability.
Love Solar Solution
Love Solar installed an in-roof solar PV system comprising 26 SolFit 370W panels, delivering approximately 9.6kWp of generation capacity. The installation also incorporated a 9.5kWh battery storage system and a Zappi EV charger to maximise the use of renewable energy generated on-site.
Installation Process
The system was installed in 2022 using an integrated in-roof design, providing a clean appearance while combining solar generation, battery storage and EV charging technology.
Results & Performance
The system is expected to generate approximately 8,000kWh of electricity annually. Combined with battery storage and EV charging, the installation helps reduce grid electricity consumption and is projected to achieve a financial payback within seven years.
