Overview:

 

Like many businesses and homeowners across the UK, a commercial property in Wigan, Greater Manchester, felt the pressure of rising energy costs. In search of a long-term solution, the owners sought to reduce operating costs and improve energy resilience by investing in a renewable energy system.

 

ASK Renewable Solutions was contracted to install a three-phase battery storage system. The business had previously relied on grid energyto provide the building’s power, so a shift to harnessing renewable energy with a HANCHU battery storagesystem was a strategic move to protect profits and reduce grid reliance.

 

Solution:

 

ASK Renewable Solutions designed a commercial-scale system, combining a large PV array with a HANCHU ESS battery storage solution. The system, a 50kW C&I three-phase hybrid inverter with a stack of HANCHU ESS 9.4kWh high voltage batteries, totalled a storage capacity of 28.2kWh. The system now supports heavy loads, whilst storing excess energy for use during non-generating hours.

 

Between January 24th and May 1st 2025, the property consumed 24,800 kWh of electricity, which would have cost £7,192 at a rate of 29p per unit. 

During the same period,the solar panels generated 16,100 kWh of electricity, out of which 14,000 kWh was used and stored in batteries (for later use), resulting in a savingsof £4,060. The remaining 2,100 kWh was exported to the grid,earning £315 at a rate of 15p per unit.

In total,the owners effectively saved £4,375 over approximately three months.

 

The client now benefits from significantly reduced energy bills, greater grid independence, and future-proofed infrastructure ready for EV integration or system expansion.

Client:

 

“Energy costs were hitting our space, so we needed a long-term solution. Installing the Hanchu battery system alongside solar panels gave us immediate control. We now store the solar energy we generate during the day and use it when it’s most needed, massively reducing our bills and transforming how we manage the property’s energy”

Future proofing with purpose:

 

Rising energy costs and sustainability concerns are now central to every decision, whether managing a care home, running a business, or upgrading your family home. At Callands Care Home, a major energy overhaul was needed to reduce costs, improve comfort, and align with modern environmental targets.

Dovehaven, a respected care provider, partnered with ASK Renewable Solutions to deliver a complete energy transformation. This transformation offers valuable insight into what’s possible for commercial buildings and domestic homes alike.

 

Solution: Smart heating meets renewable energy:

 

Callands Care Home had been relying on an outdated and inefficient electric heating system, which was expensive and environmentally unsustainable. Our mission was to design and install a cutting-edge, energy-efficient heating and hot water solution that could meet the demands of a large property while maximising savings and control.

 

What ASK Renewable Solutions delivered:

 

Heat Pump System:

16 ultra-efficient air source heat pumps.

Heating divided into 4 smart zones to optimise usage and improve control.

Full heating and hot water supply now delivered by low-carbon technology.

 

Solar PV System:

440 solar panels (each rated at 440 watts).

3 x 50kW inverters installed.

Panels spread across 14 roof sections.

Estimated annual solar generation: 144,148 kWh.

Results:

 

Energy Use (Heating & Hot Water) Annual Consumption:

  • Before - 733,943 kWh
  • After - 203,873 kWh

Estimated solar generation - 144,148 kWh

 

Estimated annual energy savings (@ £0.28/kWh) - £148,419+

 

Client:

 

“This has transformed our energy profile. We’re seeing major cost savings and improved comfort throughout the building. Our residents and staff feel the difference—and so does our bottom line.” - Damion, Dovehaven Care Homes.
