Use Hestia to assess a Portfolio of Properties

Hestia's SolarProspector™ online tool can be used to assess large portfolios of properties for solar PV potential.

On a contract basis, Hestia can quickly and accurately assess the potential for installing solar PV on a portfolio of properties - ideal for local authorities, facilities managers, estate agencies, large property portfolio owners, and solar PV installers. A customer simply needs to supply Hestia with a property address list and Hestia's expert Solar Verifiers will use the SolarProspector™ to analyse each property and present an analysis detailing the potential returns for solar panels on each property for the next 25 years. As well as financial returns, information on solar suitability including a list of solar suitable roofs, the potential system size in kWp, location of obstructions/significant overshading, estimated electricity yield, earnings from the Feed In Tariff, electricity savings, and a web link to an aerial image of each property is provided. The system has been successfully piloted on a local authority contract to examine 60,000 roofs for suitability.

The SolarProspector™ has been used by local authorities, on a contract basis, to examine portfolios of up to 60,000 roofs for solar suitability. Hestia will perform these checks and provide you with a list of the suitable roofs. Contact us for detailed information on how we can do this for you.

KEY FEATURES

A customer simply needs to supply Hestia with a list of properties to be assessed for solar PV potential. Hestia's expert Solar Verifiers will then use the SolarProspector™ to analyse each property.

The customer will receive a comprehensive data report which will include a database of roof information that can subsequently be used for tendering. These reports can be generated for multiple solar panel models and therefore can be of use when deciding which solar panel manufacturer to use for large scale projects. The report includes the following for each property assessed:

The potential system size in kWp.

Error sensitivity analysis (max/min based).

Location of any identified obstructions/significant overshading.

Estimated electricity yield in kWh and benefits in terms of FIT and savings on electricity.

Web link through which an aerial image of the property can be viewed.

Hestia's cost-effective method could allow you to quickly and accurately assess the potential for installing solar PV on your properties.

Our service is suitable for organisations in both the public and private sectors. Commercial, municipal, agricultural and residential properties can all be surveyed for solar PV suitability.
