Clenergy’s ST MAC Ground Mount System Powers 1.4MW Solar Farm in the UK


SPALDING, 16 September 2024—Clenergy is proud to announce that its PV-ezRack® SolarTerrace MAC (ST MAC) mounting solution has been selected for a 1.4MW solar project in the UK. This selection highlights the growing recognition of the ST MAC system’s superior design and performance, particularly for ground-mount solar installations.

 

The Project at a Glance
Featuring Canadian Solar panels, Sungrow inverters and Clenergy’s ST MAC mounting solution, the project is set to generate an estimated 1,476,000kWh of clean energy annually. It will offset 309 tonnes of CO2 and supply over 20% of the energy demand for the site owned by Moulton Bulb, a grower and supplier of onions, shallots and garlic. This aligns with Clenergy’s growing commitment to sustainability and renewable energy solutions in the UK.

Key Features of ST MAC
The ST MAC system is making a remarkable impact on this solar farm thanks to its diverse array of benefits below:

  • Excellent Corrosion Resistance
    ST MAC incorporates the innovative Magnesium-Aluminum-Zinc (MAC) coated steel, which is known for its superior durability and corrosion resistance. Its corrosion resistance is five to ten times greater than conventional hot-dip galvanized steel, making it ideal for long-lasting, large-scale solar installations. The MAC coating also offers a superior aesthetic finish and self-healing functionality for exposed cut edges.
  • Cost Effective
    The ST MAC system’s economic design ensures cost-effectiveness and reliability, making it suitable for both commercial and utility-scale solar installations.
  • Ease of Installation
    The system’s efficient and simple design, with fewer brackets and fasteners, allows for quick installation using basic tools.
  • Outstanding Wind Resistance
    Dual-insurance module fastening methods, including bolt-nut fixing and module clamps, ensure that the solar modules are securely attached, providing exceptional wind resistance, even in typhoon-prone areas
  • Strong Terrain Adaptability
    With multiple adjustment options, the well-thought-out design features enable ST MAC to easily adapt to varying terrain slopes.

 

Building a Greener Future Together

“We are incredibly proud to see the ST MAC system making a significant impact on one of our key UK projects,” said Grace Zhuo, Sales Director at Clenergy. “The ease of installation and long-term reliability of this product showcase our commitment to innovation in renewable energy solutions, helping our clients achieve both environmental and economic benefits.”

NerG Ltd, the contractor, has also expressed their satisfaction with the installation. “The Clenergy ST MAC system has proven to be not only easy to work with but also exceptionally robust,” said Ben Covell, Project Manager at NerG Ltd. “Our team was able to install the system efficiently, and the ground screw foundation offers impressive stability, even in challenging conditions.”

As Clenergy continues to grow its footprint in the UK, this project demonstrates our commitment to advancing renewable energy adoption and supporting the country’s clean energy transition. By contributing to the reduction of CO2 emissions and helping businesses achieve their energy goals, Clenergy is playing a pivotal role in shaping a greener future for the UK and beyond.
