After careful research, including trips to visit manufacturers in both India and China, the first 150kW consignment was delivered into the county. The first installations, organised by 7Y in partnership with our qualified installer, Herefordshire based Greenearth Energy, are being put on a variety of farm buildings including livestock sheds, cold stores and poultry buildings. No time has been wasted in getting the panels up on roofs where they can start producing green electricity and reducing energy bills for their owners.
Nick Bevan farms in Bodenham, Herefordshire and has been one of the first to install a 40.32kW peak array at his farm. He comments; "We wanted to address our energy bills particularly in the potato shed where we have now put up the 40kW solar PV array. 7Y have been exceptionally professional in their whole approach to this and have worked with us every step of the way giving us confidence in the whole scheme."
