Projects
RECENT SOLAR PROJECT
Hydrocon Green recently installed a 45kW grid-tied PV system utilizing the BPC Rooftop Solar Programme.
The system comprises of 120 Canadian Solar (Tier 1) panels paired with a 30kW Freedom Won LiFePO4 storage bank all managed by two pairs of 12kW Sunsynk inverters.
This grid-tied system guarantees a credit saving by feeding excess electricity produced from the solar array back into the grid via a bidirectional meter and a reduction in the maximum demand charge.
