NHS Village Surgery – Solar PV Installation

The Challenge

NHS Village Surgery wanted to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions but faced challenges with a complex roof layout and shading from surrounding trees and nearby buildings. A further barrier was the upfront capital investment required to deliver a project of this scale.

Our Solution

Blue Leaf Energy Services designed and installed a 41.25 kW Solar PV system using SolarEdge technology, chosen to maximise output on shaded and uneven roof areas. The optimised system ensures each panel performs at its best, overcoming site constraints and delivering reliable generation.

Funding & Support

To help make the project viable, Blue Leaf Energy worked with NHS Village Surgery to secure Lloyds Bank Green Finance funding. By guiding the practice through the funding process, we ensured the project could proceed without delays, allowing the surgery to benefit immediately from reduced energy bills and long-term savings.

The Results

• Initial performance has already outperformed forecasts.
• The surgery has achieved up to 80% electricity savings year-on-year.
• Annual carbon savings of 8 tonnes, directly supporting NHS Net Zero commitments.

Impact

This project shows how a well-designed Solar PV system, combined with tailored funding support, can deliver both environmental and financial benefits. NHS Village Surgery now benefits from lower energy bills, reduced carbon emissions, and a future-proofed energy strategy.
