April has been an exciting month for us so far having completed the installation of our energy monitoring system at AFM House at the end of March. As the images below show, our 4kWp solar PV system has been producing more power than we consume during the day meaning during office hours the office is running on 100% renewable electricity. Essentially we will have eliminated 90% of the building’s electricity bill from March to October which we’re delighted about.

We are delighted to announce that Ceiba Renewables Ltd has graduated from the Carbon Trust Scotland’s Carbon Management Programme. This commits us to reducing our carbon footprint by 40% saving 28 tonnes of Carbon and saving £12,375! Through our shared office facilities with Firstax.co.uk at AFM House, our plan involves reducing the office carbon emissions & energy overheads drastically.
On the road to achieving these goals we have so far installed a 4kWp solar PV system and an energy monitoring & management system at the head office, and we have more projects in the pipeline including LED lighting and waste management. We’re already seeing the benefits of these changes and we’d be happy to show anyone around our offices to demonstrate how these technologies can be utilised to reduce your energy overheads & carbon footprint, please call us to make an appointment.

Having just won their first job using Enphase micro inverters, Ceiba Renewables can’t wait to install them at their client’s home in Aboyne, Aberdeenshire. Ceiba’s project manager for the job said, “Our client has significant shading issues where shading throughout the day affects different parts of the roof. Traditionally we would have advised that a solar PV system was unsuitable for this roof however, the micro inverters will ensure that this shading has a minimal impact enabling each individual solar panel to perform to its optimum when the sun hits it.” In addition to this, Enphase’s “Enlighten” monitoring system (which comes FREE with every install) means that the performance data is uploaded to the ‘net so Ceiba & their client can monitor performance all year round. “We’re very excited to add this technology to our portfolio” said Duncan Crosthwaite of Ceiba Renewables Ltd.
