Surestart 'Solar Tree': Derbyshire
Project Date: August 2006
Project: Design and manufacture of a unique 'solar tree' designed to produce energy to generate a water feature.
Technical Specifications: 6 PV Solar Panels
PV Systems helped to design and produce a single galvanised steel support structure which branches out like a tree to support 6 individual solar panels. The system is grid-connected and is used to offset the energy used to pump the water feature.
This 'Solar Tree' has become and exciting central communal feature in the surrounding play area, helping to provide a harmonised environment for parents and children alike.
