Improving energy efficiency across social housing stock

Supporting Local Authority decarbonisation objectives

Reducing household energy costs for residents

Delivering measurable sustainability improvements across the housing portfolio

The Challenge

Overcoming Obstacles

Every project presents unique constraints. Here’s what we navigated to deliver success.
Occupied Properties

All installations were carried out across occupied residential homes, requiring careful scheduling and resident coordination.

Programme Timeline

200 installations were required within a defined three-month delivery window, demanding efficient resource planning and logistics.

Resident Liaison

Each property required direct communication with residents to arrange access, manage expectations and minimise disruption.

Varied Property Configurations

Installations were delivered across multiple property types, each requiring individual assessment and system design.

S-TEC Solution

Our Approach

A tailored solution designed to maximise returns while meeting all technical and commercial requirements.

Resident Communication
S-TEC managed all resident contact, appointment scheduling and access coordination across the housing portfolio.
Programme Scheduling
A structured installation programme was developed to ensure consistent delivery across all 200 properties within the required timeframe.
Standardised System Design
3.04kWp solar PV systems were specified using Solis, Solax and Fox inverters to integrate with existing residential infrastructure.
Van Der Valk Mounting System
High-quality structural mounting ensuring long-term integrity, careful cable routing and full compliance with public sector building standards
Post-Installation Support
Each property received post-installation checks and resident handover to ensure systems were operating correctly.
