EDSB Solar Case Study - Lutterworth Athletic FC

Our Client

Mr Michael English (Chairman of Lutterworth Athletic FC) has taken a significant step towards sustainability by installing a solar system for his club. Inspired by the successful installation of an EDSB solar system at an associate's property, he reached out to obtain further details and a design/quotation for the clubhouse. This step forward towards using renewable energy demonstrated his practical approach to future sustainability.

EDSB Solar Solution

EDSB Solar provided Mr English with a comprehensive quote including the cost of high-efficiency solar panels, an inverter with a battery storage system. Prior to the installation, the process begins with a site assessment, detailing the installation of the roof panels, the inverter setup and the connection to the battery storage.

From a system of this size, Mr English would see significant savings on the club’s electricity bills by generating its own power. Additionally, the battery storage allows the club to use solar energy even when the sun isn't shining. Furthermore, any excess electricity stored in the battery can be sold back to the grid, providing an additional income stream and enhancing the overall return on investment.

Client Testimony

“I was introduced to EDSB Solar by a member of our local football club who had recently had solar panels installed with a battery storage unit to help reduce their energy bills. Having looked into this many years ago and seeing inconsistent results, I have to say I was sceptical. However, after hearing about the member's positive experience and seeing their results, I decided to speak to EDSB Solar to see if the same solutions could help reduce our soaring energy costs at the club.

Three months on from a smooth and efficient installation, I am amazed at the savings we are achieving, even in variable weather conditions. This new technology works effectively, even on very cloudy days. Our bills have more than halved and I am now applying to the energy supplier to sell excess electricity back to the network, generating even more savings! I expect to recoup the entire investment within three to four years and in the meantime, reduce my energy bills by over 50%.

I would like to thank both James and EDSB for their very professional service. I highly recommend you speak to James and his team to start saving money on your energy bills.”
