Solarsense has just completed the largest Local Authority owned PV system in the UK on the roof of the Northacre Resource Recovery Centre (RRC).
The 1,248 Vikram Eldora solar panels (318.24 kWp) – covering an area equivalent to more than seven tennis courts – will generate over 280,500 units (kWh) of electricity each year. The electricity, all of which will be consumed on site, will help to power the mechanical biological treatment process used to turn household waste into solid recovered fuel (SRF) in place of it being sent to landfill.
