Springers Solar worked with Kedron-Wavell Services Club to reduce the clubs power bill as much as possible, while also allowing for system expansion in due course. Being a large award-winning premier function, an enormous amount of power is consumed to run the facility, from lighting to air conditioning, to large cool rooms and gym equipment. Working towards a sustainable future, Kedron-Wavell Services Club has saved 8 tonnes of Co2 gas being released into the atmosphere and they have generated enough power to run more than 10,000 households for a 24-hour period, since installation. 

Utilising roof space, LG NeON 2 panels were the ideal solution for this project due to their high efficiency and lower degradation over time. 250 panels were installed along with optimizers and multiple String Inverters, all tied together by a 24/7 analytics system, allowing the club to track performance and usage.

As part of the Brisbane City Councils improvement program to identify, assess and deliver projects that reduce its energy use and associated carbon emissions, Springers Solar designed and installed solar systems across several of their libraries and an environmental centre.

Safety was paramount in the design so we incorporated Solar Edge Optimisers to enable no high voltage DC during installation or maintenance. DC cables automatically de-energise to a safe voltage whenever the inverter or grid power is shut down. Furthermore, we can remotely monitor individual panels and have real-time alerts instead of diagnostics work on site. The optimised solution also provides an improved return on investment by limiting losses due to shading, manufacturing tolerance mismatch, soiling & more.
