Commercial Solar PV That Cuts Costs | Carterton Case Study

Renewable Energy

🌞New Commercial Solar PV Installation Powers Carterton Leisure Centre

We’re excited to share the successful completion of our latest Commercial Solar PV installation at Carterton Leisure Centre, delivering clean, renewable energy to one of the community’s busiest public spaces.


Project Details
  • Location: Carterton Leisure Centre, Oxfordshire

  • Panels Installed: 396 x JA Solar 550W

  • Total Capacity: 217.8 kWp

This state-of-the-art system is expected to generate 194,500kWh of clean electricity every year — significantly reducing the leisure centre’s reliance on grid electricity.

The system was spread across three separate roofs, which added an extra level of complexity to the design and installation process. Careful planning and coordination were essential to maximise generation while maintaining structural integrity and safety.
