We as One Vision supplied and fitted a LG battery storage, alongside providing several 4.00 KW PV system at Great House Farm, Wales. We have supplied the LG as its a well known battery storage system to install due to the reliability and its success of storing power(KWP).
We as One Vision supplied and fitted a Tesla battery storage, alongside providing a 5.94 KW PV system at Nantgarw Cemetery, Wales. The Tesla battery is called 'Tesla Power Wall 2', which is a 13.5 KW hour battery.
The Tesla battery 2 is useful as when more power needs to be used, the Tesla battery will provide the extra power. The battery typically uses approximately 10 KW hours per 24 hour period. When the PV pannels have stopped operating in the evening the battery will supply the electrical loads required by the building.

Monday 27th July saw the start of work on a new £1.6m Fire Station in Aberystwyth for Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service (MAWWFRS). The state of the art development, undertaken by Carmarthenshire developers WRW, isl be located on the same site as the previous fire station on Penparcau Road, Trefechan. As with a lot of council buildings, there is always a huge focus on renewable energy sources.
Amberwell engineering of Pyle, Bridgend were the electrical contractors used by WRW who provided us with the Solar PV installation on the contract.
A CONTROVERSIAL planning application for a solar farm the size of more than 20 football pitches on the western outskirts of Newport could get the go-ahead today.
This private sector medical centre in west London opted to fit solar PV panels to produce power for the site, and for return to the electricity grid.
The system installed on the flat roof makes use of rails that are angled in order to tilt the solar panels towards the sun, improving their performance. As the property has a raised perimeter roof feature around the flat roof, the visual impact of the solar power installation has been minimised.
Carmarthenshire County Council has undertaken a number of measures to green school buildings in its area. On new buildings, these include rainwater harvesting, green roofs, higher insulation, solar water heating and solar electricity generation.
Using an angled support rail arrangement, the solar photovoltaic panels were installed on the building’s flat roof. As is normal in such situations, the installation has a minimal visual impact, in this case helped by the design of the roof with a perimeter upstand.
The sloping roofs of the classroom blocks at Tycroes primary school proved ideal for the installation of solar PV panels. The orientation of the buildings, combined with the angle of the roof, make for a highly efficient installation.
The school is one of a number that benefit from the Government’s Feed in Tariff. The installation was supported by an allocation of £300,000 from Carmarthenshire County Council to support schools with the installation of solar PV, in the knowledge that the payback will be substantially reduced running costs into the future.
Working closely with building services specialist Riverside, 1 Vision helped deliver solar PV panels as part of a range of energy efficiency aspects to this new primary school project. The result was a new school that aims to score an “Excellent” rating under the BREEAM national energy rating standard for buildings.
The highly modern design features a large area of flat roof hidden behind a metal clad soffit, on which the solar photovoltaic panels have been laid, using an angled aluminium support frame that ensures maximum efficiency from the panels.
With a commitment to saving costs, Swansea City Council investigated the potential for creating its own electricity via the Swansea Environmental Strategy, produced by the Swansea Environmental Forum.
The cost of the installation is reduced by not only the savings from electricity produced and used within the building, but also from the excess power returned to the grid. A highly satisfactory payback of less than six years was estimated, on a conservative basis, for the installation.
The GR Evans and Co Abbatoir near Corwen uses 120 solar panels on its roof to help power the plant.
Wales' first solar-powered abattoir has been switched on to help process more than 25,000 livestock annually, according to its owners. The GR Evans and Co Abattoir, near Corwen, in North Wales, uses 120 solar panels on its roof to help power the plant and to cut down its £2,000-a-month electricity bills.
It now has a 30-kilowatt solar system on its roof, which should generate more than 25,000 kilowatt hours a year, which is enough to power six family homes.
The UK government recently said Britain could reach a level of solar power that would generate 4% of its electricity. This is very different from another estimate which said less than one percent of Britain’s electricity would come from solar by 2030.
Swansea University researchers hope to have made a discovery which could make solar technology cheaper to use.
A team of Welsh university researchers has developed a new design for printed solar cells which will make them cheap, safe and simple to use, taking inspiration from a material normally found at local DIY stores.
Solar Power almost doubled in the last year, with 650,000 installations ranging from solar farms to panels on homes, figures showed.
By the end of 2014 there was almost five gigawatts (5GW) of solar photovoltaic panels installed, up from 2.8GW at the end of 2013, the department of green energy showed.
The solar industry said there were now enough panels installed in the UK to supply the equivalent of 1.5m homes.
Paul Barwell, chief executive of the Solar Trade Association said: “This milestone achieveme
An existing wind farm in Lincolnshire, owned and operated by Ecotricity has received planning permission by East Lindsey Council to build a 1MW PV power plant on the same site. Groundbreaking on the 4.7 acre (1.9 hectare) site is expected in the next few weeks with grid connection planned in March, 2011. Although other plants have received or are close to receive planning approval, the Ecotricity project could be one of the first utility-scale projects to be commissioned in the UK.
We are MCS accredited in the installation of Solar Photovoltaic Panels.
