Mr & Mrs S - Near Ludlow
Thank you so much to Mr & Mrs S for sharing their thoughts and words with us.
Background – Mr and Mrs S live in a delightful, rural village on the outskirts of Ludlow, and have been renovating their whole property. Reducing future energy bills was a natural part of the renovation planning. Insulating the property was high on the project ‘to do’ list, as well as taking advantage of the wonderful sunny aspect of the property. In 2023 Mr & Mrs S chose the team at Malvern Solar to provide a variety of green energy solutions, designed to harmoniously work together.
Project objectives - Improved insulation and low cost energy
In the first stages of future proofing their property, Mr & Mrs commissioned six GivEnergy PV solar panels. To store the energy these panels produce, a high capacity storage battery was also installed in May 2023. Since that time, further building insulation has been added as well as the addition of an air sourced heat pump. All designed to reduce energy costs, and make the home cosy.
So why were these improvements high on their priority list?
Mrs S: “We want it to be done up so that it’s good for the children to make some money for the future… you leave a legacy”.
Mr S: “It makes economic sense too. If I could, I would buy another battery, just to use the night-time tariff, even without solar panels”.
Mrs S: “If you don’t stop and think, you abuse what you have been given. To see a woodpecker in the garden is a privilege, so we try to work with nature, not against it”.
Project outcome
Mr and Mrs S agree that insulation is the key to a warm and economical house. They thought they would be clobbered in Winter, but are thrilled that electrical energy is still costing less than £1 per day even in December. Their remarkable savings are shown on the Agile Octopus pictures shown.
We’d love to hear about your project.
