Project Impact: Key Metrics
Solar Panel Capacity (kW): 16.7 kWp
Battery Storage: 23.2 kWh
Renewable Energy Coverage: 10% of annual demand
Building Type: Listed Building
Solar & Battery Storage: Project Detail Summary
- Overview of the Project: Airis Energy Solutions was appointed by Hockley Building Services Ltd to design, install and commission a 16.7 kWp Solar PV system integrated with 23.2 kWh of battery energy storage at Easy Hotel Ipswich. The system enables the hotel to generate and utilise more of its own clean energy on-site, reducing dependence on grid electricity.
- Sustainability Goals: The completed installation now provides approximately 10% of Easy Hotel Ipswich's annual electricity demand from renewable solar generation, directly supporting the hotel's ongoing commitment to carbon reduction and long-term sustainability objectives.
- Challenges to Overcome: As a listed building, the project was subject to strict planning and heritage design constraints, requiring careful consideration of aesthetics and system placement. Available roof space was limited and spanned multiple roof coverings, making mounting system selection and design particularly complex. Through detailed planning and close collaboration with all stakeholders, Airis delivered a seamless installation that met both technical and heritage requirements.
