Solar-Ready Design
Awaiting FESR 2.2.1 renewable energy funding results
The system architecture explicitly supports renewable energy integration:
- ✓ Three-phase solar inverter compatibility built-in
- ✓ Oversized cabling to handle both grid and solar input
- ✓ Centralised metering point for easy solar connection
- ✓ Battery storage predisposition - wiring allows future battery bank
Coming soon: Once FESR 2.2.1 funding is approved, we'll add photovoltaic panels, solar inverter, and possible battery storage for complete energy autonomy. This isn't just about lower bills - it's about energy independence in a rural location.
Complete Technical Documentation
We've compiled a comprehensive 32-page technical manual (in Italian) detailing every aspect of the renovation: current installation analysis, complete material specifications, installation procedures, regulatory compliance, safety protocols, and cost breakdown.
