How did solar power monitoring help to find baseload power waste at a commercial business?

When it comes to commercial clients, the financial benefits usually take priority, and this was the case with J.K. Williams. Their workshop was active day and night, resulting in heavy energy consumption. However, with monitoring equipment, significant waste of base load was identified during the night, which was fixed by the solar system, saving them a considerable amount of energy and money.

While financial benefits reign supreme for commercial clients, environmental benefits are becoming increasingly important. A good quality solar system is a no-brainer investment. With a lifespan of 25 years, the system pays for itself in just five years and continues to make money while being problem-free on the roof.

In regards to our commercial clients, the financial benefit is always in the forefront of people's minds. So J.K. Williams, they run offices there during the day, but they also have virtually around the clock maintenance on their machines. Yeah, there's always something happening in the workshop day and night, and obviously as a result, quite heavy energy consumption. Yeah we put on some monitoring equipment, we're actually able to identify quite a significant waste of base load, which they didn't even know was happening, and that was occurring at nighttime. So with the monitoring, we were able to, in conjunction with the solar, saving them huge amount of energy during the daytime, we were also able to identify a significant amount of waste that was happening at nighttime, and save energy and save money.

More and more we're seeing the environmental benefits of interest as well. Our commercial clients, more often than not, the financial benefit will be in forefront above the environmental benefit, but with a good quality solar system, it's really a no-brainer. They wanted to say, Well, let's just touch it once, we'll put it on the roof, we know it's going to do its job. Put for the lifespan of the equipment, and we don't need to worry about it again. The system's paid for itself in five years' time, and it's going to sit on the roof without any problems for another 20 years, and yeah, continue to make money. And the warranty will extend for that whole 25 year period.
