Powering Gloucester: Transforming a Landfill into a Solar Energy Hub

At Energy Oasis, we are thrilled to announce our involvement in a groundbreaking project that is set to transform green energy production in Gloucester. In collaboration with Enovert and Harvest Green Developments, we are proud to deliver a utility-scale solar installation on a former landfill site in Hempsted, marking a significant step towards a sustainable future in Gloucester.

Harnessing the Power of the Sun

The new solar park, situated on contaminated land, is rapidly taking shape with the installation of 4,200 solar panels. Once fully operational by December 2024, this solar PV installation will generate approximately 2,140,771 kWh of green electricity annually. This output is substantial enough to power between 1,500 to 2,000 homes, highlighting the project's utility-scale impact on the local community.

Environmental Benefits

By producing clean, renewable energy, the solar park is set to reduce carbon emissions by an impressive 293,268 kg each year. This reduction is akin to removing around 130 fossil-fuel-powered cars from the road, significantly contributing to Gloucester's environmental goals and showcasing the power of solar energy in combating climate change.

An Example for Future Energy Projects

This solar energy park is not just a standalone achievement but a shining example for future energy projects on Enovert's 17 sites across England. With plans already in place for potential wind energy developments, this initiative paves the way for a diversified approach to renewable energy production. The environmental research for wind turbines has been completed, promising a new avenue for sustainable energy solutions below the recycling centre site.

Our Commitment at Energy Oasis

Energy Oasis is committed to driving the transition to renewable energy through innovative projects like this. By transforming a former landfill into a hub of green electricity, we are not only supporting local energy needs but also setting a precedent for sustainable development across the region. Our involvement underscores our dedication to providing advanced solar solutions that align with global sustainability goals.

Looking Ahead

As the project progresses, we remain focused on optimizing every aspect of the solar park's performance. From DC stringing to the integration of Solis 100K Pro inverters and LONGi Solar modules, every component is designed to ensure maximum efficiency and reliability.

In conclusion, the Gloucester solar energy park represents a significant achievement for Energy Oasis and our partners. As we continue to lead the charge in renewable energy innovations, we invite you to join us on this exciting journey towards a cleaner, greener future.
