The UK government had given notification of a reduction of the Feed-In Tariffs (FIT) for Photovoltaic systems above 50kW during the Fast Track review. The client had an issue sourcing an experienced EPC contractor that would commit to finishing the project before the required deadlines. Smarter Energy Solutions (SES) sought to provide EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) roles for the project.
This would enable the client to not only feel comfortable that the project would be delivered but that it would be constructed in a way that would maximise output, re-use materials where possible and be sympathetic to surroundings and local heritage.
Just as well this was undertaken as one notable constraint on the project was that a suspected Roman Temple was buried under a large portion of the project site; this was later confirmed during the build. Liaising with the local archaeologists of the Monmouth council was a key part of the project. This was to ensure that the temple would remain preserved, the location recorded before it was recovered and the installation continues without impact on the history beneath everyone’s feet.
Several weeks of work on-site, supported by the Heanor facility and its staff were conducted without incident. Despite all the delays associated with the historical excavation the project was completed on time and met the required deadlines required of the end customer.
