## Notice

We require installation of a photovoltaic (PV) system at Wallsend ambulance station of at least 10 kWh (or maximum/optimum possible capacity given the available roof space), composed of solar panels combined with an inverter and other electrical and mechanical hardware. A site survey may need to be carried out prior to installation to conduct a risk assessment and assess the current electrical layout of the property. The contractor will need to undertake an assessment of the existing building roof to determine suitability of the installation and recommend any structural changes, if required, as well as an assessment of the existing electrical installation with recommendations to ensure compatibility with the proposed solar PV installation.
