Navitas Solar Installations Ltd completed this immense installation at Hammerstone Road, Manchester, this complete refurbishment of Manchester City Council’s waste disposal and maintenance depot located at the old Gorton Foundry site on Hammerstone Road in Gorton, Manchester, which was once occupied by railway manufacturers Beyer and Peacock who manufactured nearly 8,000 railway locomotives here from 1854 to 1966.
Over 2190 SolarPV Panels (420w) have been incorporated into the design to minimise carbon emissions related to building processes and vehicle charging. To augment this strategy a battery storage solution has been proposed to store renewable energy generated by the PV during peak periods, thus maximising carbon reduction and minimising the technologies payback period.
Working closely with our colleagues at Morgan Sindall Construction, Navitas delivered this 920.6kWp immense SolarPV installation safely and on-time.
