Infinite’s first off-grid, commercial renewable energy system on the Gower Peninsula

Infinite Renewables delivers the first off-grid, commercial renewable energy system on the Gower Peninsula, South Wales

Infinite Renewables Wales Ltd, a project company owned by Infinite Renewables Ltd and the Development Bank of Wales, has recently completed an off-grid renewable scheme for a workshop and storage facility in Gower, for their client Salix River and Wetland Services Ltd.

The system comprises a 15kWp solar PV system, battery energy storage scheme, inverter/charger, Electric Vehicle fast charger and control system that provides a 100% autonomous power system.

The option to bring a new grid connection to site was estimated to cost in excess of £100,000 so David Holland, MD of Salix Ltd, approached Iestyn Morgan, Director of Infinite Renewables, to see if they could provide a more cost-effective green energy solution.

The system was commissioned at the beginning of February 2025 and proved to work effectively during poor solar irradiation levels. Infinite designed the system according to Salix’s specific requirements, and have included a small back-up diesel generator to act as a standby power source in the event of a fault. It has also been fitted with an air-source heat pump, and can accommodate a small wind charger if energy demand increases in the winter,

David Holland stated – “We are delighted with the off-grid power system and the service provided by Infinite Renewables. The Bryniau Bach (Little Hills) site is located on a SSSI so harnessing renewable energy to deliver electricity to our new building was a major priority. The scheme has exceeded our expectations, and we are actively looking at a number of other sites in West Wales to deliver similar technologies such as our Seagrass project in Pendine.”

Iestyn Morgan commented – “It’s been a pleasure working with Salix to deliver their off grid renewable scheme, and we look forward to delivering further projects for Salix in Wales.”

The project has been fully funded by Infinite Renewables Wales, with the energy savings used to pay for the system under a long-term power purchase agreement.

Ashley Jones, Senior Investment Executive at the Development Bank of Wales, said: “Businesses across Wales are looking for ways to cut their energy use and make their operations more sustainable. Infinite Renewables Wales are there to deliver projects exactly like this, and it’s excellent to see that they’ve been able to provide the new facility which Salix needed.”
