Funded Project: Description

Applecross is a grid-constrained, rural community with only single-phase power available. This energy barrier hinders business development, limits locally generated energy exports and restricts Electric Vehicle charging capabilities. This AppleCoRRE – unlocking local grid constraints project addresses these through a feasibility study into a Community Rapid & Renewable Energy Hub. This system will utilise inverter technology to convert/upscale constrained power supplies into usable power for rapid charge points and introduce this solution within a fully functioning hub using local renewable energy generation.#
