Solar Sunwerx installs 60kW system at Bowens Hardware in Rowville
Solar Sunwerx have completed installation of a major solar power system at the Bowens Timber and Hardware in Rowville. Perched above their Stud Rd facility are 240 Jinko Solar panels capable of generating 60kW per hour drastically reducing their dependence on the electricity grid.
With four 15kW Samil three-phase inverters humming along the company can expect to save thousands on their electricity costs every month. Like all companies, Bowens wanted to protect themselves from the rising cost of energy and future mitigating expenses by take control of their overheads. Taking advantage of large-scale solar subsidies, the return on their investment will come even quicker.
A solar system of this size not only reduces the company’s operational costs, but substantially reduces their carbon footprint. By utilising clean, renewable energy the atmosphere will be spared more than five tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions every month, giving them a fantastic point of difference from their competitors.
