Providing a tailored renewable energy solution designed to enhance energy independence and efficiency.

The client sought a solution to minimise reliance on the grid while ensuring that the solar equipment was seamlessly integrated into her property without compromising garage space. The team at M&E Contrax Renewables conducted an in-depth technical survey and consultation, crafting a system that maximised space efficiency and delivered long-term energy savings. The key features of the installation include:

- Specialist guidance on Smart Export Guarantee (SEG)
- Custom flat pan tile mounting anchors
- Optimised DC and AC electrical connections
- Comprehensive design and DNO (Distribution Network Operator) approval
- Certified by NICEIC and MCS for safety and compliance
- Real-time system performance monitoring
- High-efficiency bi-facial solar panels
- Integrated battery storage for enhanced energy management
- Maximising garage space – A wall-mounted system was installed to ensure efficient use of the available area

To ensure maximum performance and seamless integration, M&E Contrax Renewables implemented the following improvements:
- Upgraded solar panels – The client’s existing 450W panels were replaced with 12 advanced Aiko 455W solar panels for improved performance
- Scalable battery storage – A 5kW Fox Hybrid inverter with expandable battery capacity was integrated, allowing future scalability
- Increased energy load capacity – DNO approval was secured to support a larger inverter, enabling greater energy efficiency
- Cost-saving strategy – The system was designed to optimise battery charging during off-peak hours, reducing electricity costs
- Seamless aesthetic integration – Consistent white containment was used for a polished, modern finish

An M&E Contrax spokesperson commented: "At M&E Contrax Renewables, we are committed to delivering cutting-edge renewable energy solutions that cater to the specific needs of each homeowner. This project exemplifies our focus on efficiency, sustainability, and tailored design.

"By taking a detailed approach to energy consumption, space constraints, and long-term savings, we ensure that our clients receive a solution that not only reduces grid dependency but also enhances their property’s aesthetic and functional value.
