The Project at a Glance
To meet the high energy demands of their transport operations, Evans Transport chose a system designed to maximise solar energy generation, reduce reliance on the grid, and future‑proof their business.
System Specifications:
Solar Panels: 78 × DMEGC 450W all‑black monocrystalline solar panels
Total PV Capacity: 35.1 kWp
Panel Optimisation: S100 SolarEdge power optimisers for every panel
Inverter & Monitoring: 33.3 kW SolarEdge inverter with Modbus meter for real‑time monitoring
Battery Storage: 3 × 10 kWh Powervault P5 smart batteries (30 kWh total) with Smart Store technology
