EasyGrid 10000 Case Study

Farms often have problems getting power to outlying buildings in a cost-effective way. Older buildings may be in a great location for farm expansion plans but with no mains electricity; and new buildings may only be permitted away from the grid connection already in place.

Howard Woolliams at Sybil’s Farm, Moreton-in-Marsh, Gloucestershire was expanding into poultry farming and had no way of getting cost effective power to the 3 sheds that would be housing his 4500 chickens.

 

 

Having met the Hybrid Energy team at the Glamping Show a few months before he contacted them to find the most effective way of delivering power for lighting, heating and security for the barns. The team recommended a standalone system incorporating an EasyGrid 10000 with a JCB G17QX generator - with the option to connect solar at a later date. 

The system has been in place for 18 months now and delivers power 24/7 to the growing business.
