Project Overview
Winki Energy designed and installed a high performance solar and storage solution for a homeowner on Eton Rd, Torquay. This system was engineered to maximise solar generation while providing reliable energy storage using advanced Sigenergy battery technology. The installation enhances the household’s energy independence and reduces reliance on grid electricity supporting long-term cost savings and sustainability.
What the client needed
The homeowner wanted a solar energy system that could significantly offset their electricity consumption while offering a dependable backup power source. They sought a modern, future ready energy setup capable of storing excess solar energy during the day and using it at night to minimise grid use. Energy efficiency, reliability and long-term financial savings were key priorities in their transition to renewable energy.
Our objectives
Our main goals for this project were to:
Ensure long-term savings and sustainable energy use for the homeowner.
Reduce grid dependency by increasing solar self-consumption.
Provide reliable energy storage through the installation of a 16kWh Sigenergy battery.
Optimise system performance with premium REC Alpha Pure-R panels for maximum efficiency and durability.
The system we designed & installed
The 13kW system features 31 REC Solar Alpha Pure-R panels, known for their superior efficiency, sleek design and long lifespan. These panels were carefully positioned to capture optimal sunlight throughout the day. The system is paired with a 16kWh Sigenergy battery, providing robust storage capacity that allows the homeowner to store and utilise solar power even after sunset.
This combination ensures consistent, efficient and clean energy generation. The Sigenergy battery’s smart management system seamlessly integrates with the solar array, enabling intelligent power use and automatic backup during outages.
The final outcome
The Eton Rd homeowner now enjoys a highly efficient and future-proof solar energy system that delivers clean, renewable power throughout the day and night. With substantial reductions in electricity bills and greater control over their energy consumption, the homeowner benefits from both environmental and financial gains.
This installation showcases Winki Energy’s dedication to providing tailored solar and storage solutions that empower households with energy independence, sustainability and long-term value.
