North Hykeham Town Council approached EnergyMyWay looking for sustainable and environmentally friendly energy solutions that would help improve their green credentials.
EnergyMyWay installed a 3.995kWp Solar Romag panel system that will offset almost 2 tonnes of carbon each year. The council are so happy with the installation that they are now promoting the benefits of alternative and sustainable energy to their own electorate.
As well as reducing the parish council’s carbon footprint the system also generates an annual income of £1,550 and savings of £360, a return on investment of 14%.
