Field report

Lee Valley Leisure Centre

Business

Ballincollig, Co. Cork

Rooftop array on the Lee Valley Leisure Centre at dusk

Pool pumps, lights and a café. A 62 kWp roof with a 60 kWh battery to shave the evening peak.

The brief

The centre’s peak runs from 5pm to 9pm, when classes and the pool are busiest.

What we fitted

One hundred and fifty panels, a 60 kW inverter and a 60 kWh commercial battery programmed to cut the evening peak.

Twelve months on

Peak demand charges dropped by 38%. The live yield display in the lobby has become a talking point for members.

In their words

Pool pumps are hungry. The monthly report shows exactly what the roof covered, which made the board meeting very short.
