CLIENT

Being a landlord in London can be a financial nightmare when it comes to energy bills. For Karan Butter, saving on energy bills and being eco-friendly was a double-edged sword. Like many landlords who are always looking into the future, he wanted to kill two birds with one stone by creating modern, energy-efficient homes for his tenants while also improving the long-term value of his investment. This led him to choose solar as a way forward, and we were delighted to help.

The Project

The vision was to simply replicate a high-performing solar solution across both Tower A (33 flats) and Tower B (31 flats). Each system was thoughtfully designed to maximise south-facing exposure and provide consistent solar generation year in and year out. By choosing a dual installation, Karan doubled the impact, which then helped secure reliable returns, demonstrating that large-scale residential buildings can play their part in reducing carbon emissions.

The technical scope included:

  • 70 × Jinko 435W panels (30.46 kWp total capacity across both towers)
  • 2 × Solis 15kW 3-Phase Inverters
  • Flat Roof Pitch: 10° (South Facing, both towers)
  • Project Cost: £28,800 combined (£14,400 per tower)

The Solution

Both towers were equipped with systems specially made for efficiency and long-term peace of mind. South-facing orientation and modern inverter technology mean strong yields, while 45% of landlord supply is now met directly through clean, solar energy. The dual setup also cushions both buildings against unpredictable and often stress-inducing UK electricity tariffs, making costs less of a hassle to manage in the long run. So, basically, solar helped Karran achieve reliable performance, environmental gains he can measure, and a smart property upgrade all rolled into one sustainability project..
