Addressing climate change
Drakes Renewables installed a ground-mounted solar array on a property undergoing a Georgian farm renovation.
Positioned away from the main house and out of sight, the solar system was designed to seamlessly integrate with the property’s sustainable energy setup. The array complements the heat pump system and contributes to heating the swimming pool, enhancing the property’s energy efficiency. A gravel base was installed beneath the system to ensure a low-maintenance solution, blending practicality with sustainability.
