Who is Freemantle School?

Nestled in the heart of Southampton, Freemantle School stands as a beacon of pride, providing students with not only a nurturing environment to cultivate their spirituality but also a foundation for embracing the teachings of God.

The Project

In a testament to its commitment to both its students and the environment, Freemantle School has embarked on a transformative journey towards sustainability. Partnering with Empower Energy, a leader in sustainable energy solutions, the school has taken bold steps to integrate green initiatives into its infrastructure. The focal point of this endeavor is the installation of a robust 54KW solar system, showcasing Freemantle School's dedication to responsible resource management and environmental stewardship.

The first phase of this green initiative saw the installation of a powerful solar system featuring 114 JinkoSolar panels, 57 SolarEdge optimizers, and 1 SolarEdge inverter. The remarkable success of this initial system not only demonstrated the viability of renewable energy solutions but also inspired Freemantle School to further expand its commitment to sustainability. The second system, a testament to the school's continuous pursuit of eco-friendly practices, includes 118 JinkoSolar panels, 59 optimizers, and 1 inverter, thereby increasing the overall capacity of the solar infrastructure.

Together, these two interconnected systems empower Freemantle School to generate an impressive 93,295 KWh of clean energy annually. Beyond the financial benefits, this substantial energy production translates into significant savings of £24,304 on electricity bills each year. This financial relief not only contributes to the school's economic well-being but also allows for the redirection of resources towards enriching educational experiences and initiatives.

Freemantle School's dedication to sustainability goes beyond mere cost savings. The impact of these solar installations extends to the reduction of CO2 emissions by an impressive 51,919 kilograms annually. This significant decrease in carbon emissions underscores the school's proactive role in addressing environmental concerns and aligns with its commitment to instilling values of responsibility and stewardship in its students.

As Freemantle School harnesses the power of renewable energy, it not only secures a more sustainable future for itself but also sets an inspiring example for the community and educational institutions at large. The school's journey towards sustainability is a reflection of its values and a testament to its belief in the transformative power of conscious choices. By embracing green initiatives, Freemantle School is not just educating students academically but also shaping responsible global citizens who understand the importance of preserving the environment for generations to come.
