Solar Surge in 2017
With a full year of generation at Ackers Ski Centre, we can see how it is swelling our clean energy output. The chart shows the cumulative contributions of the 6 solar buildings who host our panels. They follow the predictions in our Business Plan.
During 2017, they produced a total of 149 Mwh of clean energy for the buildings and their neighbourhood. The carbon saved by displacing grid electricity has been calculated as 41 tonnes. The cumulative totals since installation are 308 Mwh of our electricity, saving 85 tonnes CO2.
There are also the benefits to Ackers and Moseley CDT from the low fixed energy bill from the sun.
