Case Study: Michael Smith Switchgear, Leicestershire
High-impact solar installation for Michael Smith Switchgear (MSSL), a Leicester-based manufacturer located on the Braunstone Frith Industrial Estate.
To support MSSL’s commitment to carbon neutrality, a status they achieved in 2022, Geo Green Power installed a 102kWp solar PV system consisting of 284 panels.
The system generates approximately 97,000kWh of clean electricity annually, covering roughly two-thirds of the factory’s energy needs and saving the business over £20,000 per year in energy costs.
Beyond the financial returns, which include an estimated £500,000 in savings over 30 years, the project reduces carbon emissions by 25 tonnes annually, reinforcing MSSL’s position as a forward-thinking leader in sustainable manufacturing.

Buffer your energy usage. Store the excess power generated by your panels during the day to power your operations through the night or during expensive peak-tariff periods – ideal for Wigston’s busy production schedules.
