Blackbrooks, a family-run garden centre that has been part of the Sussex community since 1982 has won awards for innovative thinking. They have now invested in a cutting edge solar system and the 287 Trina solar PV panel array at the 10-acre garden centre in Sedlescombe generates 121,97 kilowatts (kWh) of free clean electricity at peak.
This new system will save Blackbrooks around £45,000 in utility bills and at current energy prices, projections show that the entire system should pay for itself within 2 years and 6 months.
A comprehensive plan ensured that the garden centre remained open for business while the OHM Energy Solutions team worked for three weeks behind the scenes to install the system.
