Project Overview

Optimum Electrics delivered a tailored Solar PV and Battery Storage system for a residential property in Rutland. The customer was looking for a future-proof solution to significantly reduce their energy bills, increase self-sufficiency, and protect their home against rising electricity costs.


System Design & Components

The system was designed around high-performance components to maximise efficiency and storage capacity:

  • 1 × 8kW Sigenergy Hybrid Inverter

  • 1 × 10kWh Sigenergy Battery Storage Unit

This combination ensures excellent generation capacity paired with robust storage, allowing the customer to harness solar energy throughout the day and store excess power for use in the evenings and overnight.

The completed system provides the homeowner with:

  • Substantial reductions in energy bills through solar self-consumption.

  • Increased energy independence with the 10kWh battery providing reliable evening and backup power.

  • Future-ready technology with the flexibility to integrate additional smart energy solutions if desired.

  • Sustainable impact by significantly lowering the property’s carbon footprint.
