Project Details:
The family’s primary goal was to reduce their dependence on the traditional grid and switch to a more eco-friendly and cost-effective energy solution. After conducting extensive research, they chose a 5.5kW off-grid solar system, which included solar panels, batteries, and an inverter.
Challenges Faced:
- Finding the right location for the solar panels was a challenge due to the limited space on the roof.
- The family had to ensure that the solar system was compatible with their existing electrical appliances and devices.
- The weather conditions in Montreal can be unpredictable, so the solar system had to be designed to withstand harsh winters and snowfall.
Solutions Implemented:
- Our team conducted a thorough site assessment to determine the optimal placement of the solar panels, ensuring maximum sunlight exposure throughout the year.
- We worked closely with the family to select the appropriate batteries and inverter that would provide the required power output for their home appliances.
- The solar panels were installed with additional support structures to withstand heavy snowfall and wind.
Results Achieved:
- The family now has a reliable and sustainable source of energy, reducing their dependence on the grid.
- The solar system has significantly reduced their monthly electricity bills, providing long-term cost savings.
- By using solar energy, the family has reduced their carbon footprint, contributing to a greener environment.
