Background

Helen Stapleton, a homeowner in Limerick, was keen to make a big contribution to sustainability. Then, after a friend had solar panels installed by Ohk energy, Helen made the decision to invest in solar.

Helen’s 2 story, semi-detached home was built in 1997 and had BER of B2 before installing solar.

The Challenge

Helen faced several key challenges and considerations when exploring options:

  • A desire to make a sufficiently large contribution to sustainability.
  • Finding a responsive, trustworthy solar installer with proven results.
  • The requirement for a solar solution tailored to her home and household energy usage.

When speaking about her initial research into solar installers and solar solutions, Helen noted she didn’t receive the sufficient responsiveness, time or detail (about solutions) until engaging with Ohk energy.

The Solution

Based on client goals, household energy usage and the configuration of the property, Ohk energy designed and installed a bespoke solar solution. This included:

  • 7 high-efficiency market leading 435W solar panels.
  • 5kW hybrid inverter (futureproofed for potential upgrades discussed with client).
  • Energy monitoring app.
  • A sub panel, isolators and additional system components required to ensure compliance and deliver our market leading installation standards.
  • Capability to sell excess energy back to the grid.
  • Dedicated grant coordinator.
  • A new BER certification arranged with an independent assessor.

Speaking about the solar panel installation process:

"It was seamless, everybody came on time, everybody was punctual, was efficient and they came and went when they said they would. I have absolutely no complaints."

The Results

The results from this solar installation in Limerick include:

  • A dramatically reduced carbon footprint.
  • Substantially lower energy bills.
  • An improved BER (now A3).
  • More informed consumption decisions from detailed energy usage insights.
  • Less impact from energy price fluctuations.

Speaking about the installation and results, Helen noted:

One surprise result from the installation came from the app. Helen was pleasantly surprised by the energy usage insights and can now make more informed decisions about consumption.

From identifying the energy guzzlers, to matching household demand to solar generation, the insights help users get the most out of their solar system.
