New 50 kW solar array for Mitsubishi
Mitsubishi Motors UK have installed a total of 196 solar panels supplied by Mitsubishi Electric on the roof of the company’s offices in Cirencester, Gloucestershire, where the array is expected to generate 40,050 kWh of energy, saving 17.2 tonnes of carbon emissions per year.
The array features a state-of-the-art energy generation and performance monitoring system, which enables monitoring via the internet. A permanent real-time display has been fitted in the main reception area.
“The decision to installSolar PVwas a straightforward one” said Lance Bradley, the managing director of Mitsubishi Motors UK. “As well as offering good strong, sound business benefits, this move complements our growing reputation of leading the way in environmental technologies. Whilst we know that the Governmentfeed-in tariffis set to be reduced in August, the increasing efficiency of panels, falling costs of the hardware and increasing energy costs are likely to still make the case to other businesses compelling, and we hope they will follow our lead.”
