Project Description

In the beautiful rural Yorkshire countryside, Cottingham Parks Golf and Leisure Club has a high energy consumption. Accommodation, restaurants/ catering and a heated swimming pool result in high energy costs. Zhyphen was given the challenge to provide a Battery Energy Storage Solution (BESS) facilitating the integration of a 95kW grid-tied solar PV generation as well as a 50kW DC-coupled solar PV array.


Brief:
Design & manufacture of bespoke containerised 45kVA/120kWh battery energy storage system, facilitating the integration of 95kW grid-tied solar PV generation as well as a 50kW DC-coupled solar PV array. Installation of cabling & containment to provide UPS backup for a large swimming pool and critical loads. Enhanced energy monitoring and management system with bespoke cloud dashboard.
