Stockport Housing Project

Stockport Homes Ltd has brought clean energy to its housing association residents with the installation of 2,000 domestic solar PV kits, featuring time- and cost-saving mounting system technology from TRITEC.

This large-scale solar energy project formed part of the ‘Stockport Homes Shine’ initiative to address fuel poverty and reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Installing photovoltaic panels on the roofs of every suitable housing association home had the potential to deliver much-needed free electricity to residents, while also providing a return on investment to Stockport Homes, via the government’s Feed-In Tariffs scheme.

Reducing installation time

“Following a successful trial installation, 2,000 2kW domestic solar PV kits , were installed across Stockport Homes’ housing stock,” comments Rupert Higgin, Managing Director of The Green Electrician Group. “The installation time was greatly reduced as a result of the predesigned PV kits from GreenKit and the cutting-edge technology from companies like TRITEC.”
