The challenge
Communal diesel gensets powered common areas and backup across the estate. Fuel and maintenance drove service charges up, and residents endured noise and outages.
What we built
A 120kW solar and storage system covering common-area power, boreholes and estate lighting, integrated with the grid as backup.
The results
- Diesel eliminated across the estate
- Service charge reduced by 31%
- Quiet, reliable common-area power
- Fully monitored for the facility manager
“The generators are gone, the estate is quiet, and our service charge actually went down. 'Solar-powered' is now one of our best sales lines.”
