Customer Feedback

We had a wonderful service from the team at Inspire Green. They made the whole process very simple. They explained the options clearly and helped us make the right decisions for our building - which is a Grade 2 listed building, and our organisation, which is a charity.

The installation team were brilliant and we hardly knew they were here. We are delighted with our new solar panels and would highly recommend Inspire Green to anyone considering a solar panel installation. All we need now is the sun! Thanks so much from everyone at The Gate and Vineyard Church Cardiff.

About the Client

The Gate Arts Centre 

A beautiful former Church – Grade ii Listed and nestled in Keppoch Street in Cardiff.  It wanted to have Solar power to help support all the activities housed within the building that following a large amount of restoration at the start of the century came to life again in 2004.  This venue has been transformed into a real community hub that now offers :-

• School Plays • Comedy Evenings • Jazz Nights • Church Services • Baby Classes

• Food Co-op • Conferences • Poetry Evenings • Training Courses 

• Theatre Productions • Concerts  • Podcast Recordings

 

Our Solution

The Gate Arts Centre was an opportunity referred to us by a previous client that was impressed with our quality of work.  

The original planning permission granted on this Grade ii Listed building originally proposed and on-roof solar system but there were some negative aspects around the weight added to the structure by way of the solar panels.  As such we liaised with Conservation officials in Cardiff and the architects and engineers and revised this to a much lighter weight in-roof system.

 

Takes a load of the building and improves the aesthetics.
