Energizing Education: Namkoo Solar Powers Up Auckland Secondary School

Location: Auckland, New Zealand

Name of the School: Auckland Secondary School

Person in Charge: Mr. Smith, School Administrator

In the heart of Auckland, New Zealand, the Auckland Secondary School faced a shocker of an electricity bill. More than 1,500 students and teachers bustling about day in and day out can really put a dent in your utility budget. Mr. Smith, the school's trusty administrator, was determined to shed some light on the problem.

Enter Namkoo Solar, the superhero of sustainable energy solutions. After a thorough site survey, Namkoo Solar proposed a solution that would not only ease the school's electricity woes but also teach its students about the power of the sun. The plan? Installing a dazzling 100kW solar power system right on the school's roof.

We caught up with Mr. Smith as he enthusiastically shared the school's journey towards cleaner, greener energy.

"We were at our wit's end with the electricity bills. But we also wanted to educate our students about sustainable energy. Namkoo Solar seemed like the perfect fit," Mr. Smith explained.

Namkoo Solar's arsenal of top-notch products was lined up for the project:

1. Solar Panels: The backbone of the system, 250 high-efficiency solar panels were used to capture the sun's energy. These panels were carefully installed on the school's roof to maximize sun exposure.

2. Inverters: To convert the captured sunlight into usable electricity, 10 top-of-the-line inverters were employed. These inverters efficiently transformed the DC power from the panels into AC power for the school's needs.

3. Mounting Structure: A sturdy mounting structure was put in place to ensure the panels stayed put, even in Auckland's blustery weather.

4. Monitoring System: The system was fitted with a state-of-the-art monitoring system, allowing the school to track power generation in real-time and use it as an educational tool.

As for the power generation parameters, the numbers were nothing short of impressive:

• The 100kW solar power system was estimated to produce approximately 140,000 kWh of clean energy annually.
• This green energy would offset around 60% of the school's electricity consumption, leading to substantial savings in utility bills.
• Over its lifetime, the system was projected to reduce CO2 emissions by over 2,000 tons, contributing to a cleaner and more sustainable Auckland.

Mr. Smith couldn't be happier with the outcome. "Not only have we drastically cut down our electricity bills, but our students now have a hands-on lesson in sustainability every time they look out of the classroom window," he proudly stated.

The Auckland Secondary School's switch to solar power serves as a shining example of how renewable energy can benefit both the environment and the community. Thanks to Namkoo Solar, this school is not only teaching the next generation about the power of the sun but harnessing it to power their future.
