Project Overview
The brief from this Woodmead investor was simple: save money on his new office block while making sure tenants had seamless power through outages so their work never stops.
Our Solution
The engineering specs came back with a 60kW FOX ESS Beast inverter coupled with 80kWh of FOX HV batteries and 150× 535W Aiko all-black solar panels.
The system generates an impressive 80kWp from the panels — enough to power the entire office block with heaters running during the day, while still charging the batteries for overnight savings and outage protection.
The Install
This system took real skill to install. The high-pitch slate roof was a constant reminder that safety is always the priority on site. We had the slate specialists on hand to replace damaged tiles as we went along, maintaining the waterproofing integrity of the roof throughout.
Key Components
- 60kW FOX ESS Beast hybrid inverter
- 80kWh FOX HV battery storage
- 150× 535W Aiko all-black solar panels (80kWp)
- Full office block coverage with heaters running
- Overnight battery savings and outage backup
The Result
The office park now runs on 80kWp of solar with 80kWh of battery storage — tenants keep working seamlessly through outages while the owner saves on electricity costs.
A big thank you to Herholdt’s Group for making sure the panels were delivered safely to site after the weather-related delays at sea. The crane truck offloading the panels was the talk of the business park!
