Case study: Thorpe Farm Caravan Park
Thorpe Farm Caravan Park was a fast-growing business that had recently invested in a new restaurant and farm shop. Paul Barkes, the owner, was keen to utilise his remaining fields to install a solar farm to generate costs savings and carbon reduction.
Engenera worked closely with the business and handled all discussions with Northern Power Grid in relation to grid connection providing a complete turnkey service.
Engenera designed the system so it can be increased in size as required. It is also now working on Phase 2 of the project exploring various renewable heating options and increasing the Solar Array.
- System size – 145kWp
- Ground Mount
- 392 x 370w Longi Solar Modules
- Occupying 732 square metres
- 4 x 30kW Solis Inverters
- Annual generation – 132,190kWh
Case study: Nissan
Engenera helped motor manufacturer Nissan more than double the amount of renewable energy produced at its North East plant with the development of a new solar farm. The 20mW solar farm extension assists Nissan in its journey to becoming carbon neutral.
Nissan first began its journey into renewables over 10-years ago, when it installed 10 wind turbines – and later installed a 4.75mW solar farm. With the new solar farm extension Nissan will generate 20% of the plant’s energy from onsite renewables.
Over 35,000 solar panels will produce enough power for Nissan to build every single zero-emission Nissan LEAF sold across Europe.
