Delivering future-proof solutions for Bovis Homes Mindenhurst
In addition to the mechanical and electrical contract award, Bovis Homes selected HBS to provide a solar PV and EV charging solution to ensure the Mindenhurst development meets its planning conditions and energy reduction targets within budget.
This will see HBS design, supply, install and commission a combination of single-phase Complete In-roof Solar systems and three-phase non-penetrative ballasted systems. Totalling 82 kWp, the solar arrays will range in size from 3 to 3.6 kWp for the houses and 12.6 to 15.6 kWp for the apartment blocks.
The inclusion of solar panels is set to provide a sustainable energy source to help power the new homes, reducing energy costs for homeowners, while cutting overall emissions by up to 36 tonnes per year.
HBS will also be installing 82 x 7.2 kW wall-mounted EV charging points to the houses and 12 x 7.2 kW pedestal EV chargers to the apartment parking bays. This will make sure that the Bovis Homes Mindenhurst development is future-proofed and ready for electric vehicles.
