Close to four million households in the UK reside in medium and low-rise apartment buildings, possessing untapped solar potential on their rooftops. Until recently, harnessing this energy was impossible. Allume energy pioneered SolShare™️, a groundbreaking technology facilitating equitable distribution of solar energy among multiple dwellings within a single building. Established in Australia in 2015, Allume energy has swiftly expanded across three continents, spearheading a global movement towards accessible solar power.
PV Plus is an approved installer of Allume’s SolShare technology, bringing solar power to flats across England. SolShare is an innovative system that intelligently distributes energy from a single rooftop solar array to multiple dwellings, allowing residents to benefit from solar energy while keeping their choice of energy provider. By connecting behind-the-meter, it qualifies as a direct solar connection, often achieving the maximum SAP uplift and improving EPC ratings by at least one band. PV Plus specializes in designing and installing SolShare systems tailored to your specific requirements.
SolShare works by physically linking solar PV behind the meter, qualifying as a direct connection for SAP calculations and maximizing points. With customisable kWp allocation for each flat, it optimizes return on investment by tailoring solar distribution to individual household needs, helping to achieve EPC targets. By intelligently delivering solar energy when residents need it most, SolShare increases solar consumption, leading to greater bill savings for every household.
PV Plus partnered with Clarke Roofing to supply and install a Bauder Bio Solar system at Calvary Crescent, seamlessly integrated with SolShare to provide residents with direct access to the solar energy generated. This innovative approach ensures efficient energy distribution, maximising sustainability and cost savings for each household. We are proud that this project has been recognized, winning Small Scale Project of the Year South East at the Energy Efficiency Awards
