The Challenge
The Noosa Council engineers had calculated the power use in a technology facility to be high, even in the later afternoon, so a solar and battery solution was desirable. They were looking for a high power solar panel from a leading manufacturer with a long warranty and a well reputed local company like SolarWide to install it and to prove the long term after sales service.
The Solution
SolarWide recommended the LG Mono X Plus Solar Panels and the Fronius Inverters with an LG Chem Resu10h Battery. The roof was challenging due to an unusual shape and the number of vents, skylights, air conditioning units, etc. But SolarWide’s experienced installers certainly managed to maximise the roof’s solar capacity. This strategy allows the long term savings to maximise, as the PV system size and consumption patterns are aligned.
Noosa Council is aiming to reach Zero emissions by 2025 and this project was part of this plan. SolarWide are regularly installing solar on residential and commercial buildings in the Peregian Beach and Noosa area and are delighted that Noosa Council have opted to go for this ambitious plan.
