Challenges
This Solar PV installation at a busy, operational factory required careful planning and coordination to ensure high safety standards were maintained and minimal disruption of the industrial environment. Our installation team worked closely with factory managers and staff to develop a safe work strategy, ensuring everyone was informed throughout each stage of the project. Maintaining clear communication was key to minimising disruption and ensuring safety on-site. One of the more complex aspects of the job was connecting the Solar system to the factory's electrical infrastructure, which required a full site-wide shutdown. To avoid interrupting production and minimise our clients’ profit, we scheduled and completed this critical work outside of operational hours, delivering a seamless transition with zero impact on day-to-day operations.
The Reroof
For this project, the client approached us with a request to perform a roof restoration, including the repair of existing leaks and ageing materials before installing the high-efficiency Solar energy system. By investing in both the roof and Solar together, the client not only avoided the inevitable repair costs down the line of the leaking roof but also positioned themselves for substantial energy savings over the lifecycle of the system.
