What was the solution?

DSigns asked M&E Contrax to come up with a scheme to solve their issues by installing Solar Panels in Newton Abbot.

We started by checking the roof was suitable and not north facing.  Although a north facing roof is possible for Solar Panels in Newton Abbot a south facing roof would be optimal. We came up with a scheme that offered a 39% reduction in their annual bills as well as export back into the grid making use of the available FIT (feed in tariffs) available.

M&E Contrax helped by advising there were Solar Panel installation grants for businesses within Teignbridge Council and advised to apply for this.

M&E Contrax came up with a Solar PV scheme that was 23% larger for the same costs than other Solar PV Companies and were pleased to offer exceptional value for money.

What was the result?

A fully designed and installed Solar Panel Installation In Newton Abbot which has reduced DSigns energy bills by 39% and improved their carbon footprint. Both of DSigns key objectives were met and with a turnaround time of 2 weeks from DNO approval they were reaping the benefits of the system quickly.
