The Solution
Having already installed PV arrays for Audi, Rolls Royce, Jaguar, Nissan and KIA across the country, the consultants called upon Eco2Solar’s wealth of experience and a “floating” PV array was designed to fix to a bespoke frame that would sit above the cars on the flat roof.
Eco2Solar helped design the solar systems and canopy over an 18 month period, working closely with the consultants to help achieve the targets set for the new development.
Eco2Solar were instructed to install over 190 PV panels and a large solar thermal array to a flagship VW showroom in West London.
The new showroom is the largest in Europe and visible from the M4 entering London, with the PV panels installed to a bespoke steel canopy frame that floats over the cars, offering protection from the elements and generating electricity for the showroom.
The solar thermal array will also provide a large proportion of the hot water demand to the offices and washrooms.
