The Rabbit Hotel & Spa – Templepatrick

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

• Description: Solar PV fit out

• Location: Templepatrick

• Completed: 2023

• Role: Solar PV Contractor

• Scope: Design & Build of New Solar PV works.

• Contract Value: £87,730.00

KEY FEATURES

• 232nr panels Installed

• 96.28Kw installed

“WRB Carried out the installation of 232 415w panels giving a

installed capacity of 96.28kw.

This installation was carried out with care and precision an all

involved was pleased with the fluency and of their works.

The works carried out in the roof space area was neat and tidy and

the space was left as it was found.

A demo was given to the client, who was more than happy with the

way in which this demo was explained and demonstrated.”

These panels are European made and come with a 30-year Performance Warranty. They are the latest half cell technology. Implementing half-cut cells in solar panels can help improve the power output of a solar panel system. Half-cut solar cells are exactly what their name suggests – they are traditional silicon solar cells that have been cut in half using a laser cutter.

Since the cells are physically smaller, they are more averse to cracking.

A half-cut cell carries half the current and a quarter of the resistance of a full cell. So a complete half-cell module has the same current but half the resistance of a regular module. Resistance = wasted power, meaning a half cell solar panel can boost output by around 3%.

A regular panel is made up of 3 rows of cells connected in series with bypass diodes. If one cell is shaded, a third of the panel’s output can be lost. But in a half-cut panel, there are 6 rows of cells. So, if one of the cells is shaded, only a sixth of the output is lost.

With a lower current in each cell, there’s less heat concentration.

 Roof space can be saved using half cell technology.
