Evo Renewables were commissioned to design and install a commercial Solar PV system at the Victoria Shopping Centre in North Wales. As a busy retail destination with constant footfall and multiple trading tenants, the project required a carefully planned approach to ensure all works were carried out safely, efficiently, and without disruption to daily operations.

The installation presented several technical challenges, most notably the requirement for a long-distance DC cable run between the rooftop solar array and the inverter locations. This required a detailed design strategy to ensure system efficiency was maintained, voltage drop was controlled, and all cable routing remained compliant and fully protected within the building structure.

Working within a live commercial environment added further complexity. With retailers operating throughout the day, all works had to be carefully coordinated to prioritise public safety, minimise noise, and avoid any interference with tenant operations.

To accommodate these constraints, Evo Renewables implemented a flexible installation programme. All critical electrical connections and commissioning works were carried out during out-of-hours periods, ensuring zero disruption to trading while maintaining full compliance with site requirements.

A robust SolarEdge commercial system was installed, providing optimised performance across the array while allowing flexibility in system design. The cable infrastructure was carefully planned and executed to suit the building layout, ensuring long-term reliability and performance.
