Grid connection applications


We will walk you through the complexity of the G99 grid application, and work to secure your connection to the Distribution Network Operator (DNO). We have secured hundreds of connections and we can communicate effectively with the DNO to ensure the most suitable option is chosen. Our objective is securing you an appropriate grid connection at the lowest cost – accurate advice at this crucial initial step is essential to determine the success of your project.

Planning applications


We will engage all the relevant stakeholders and specialists and prepare the planning application on your behalf. Before making an application we ensure that as far as possible it is in accordance with the Planning policy of the Local Authority, and conduct pre-application meetings where applicable to ensure success. Together we rigorously prepare each application and meticulously assess what impact it might have on the environment, ecology, landscape, historic assets, road safety and the local community, and where appropriate include mitigation within the design.

Export limitation


Export limitation devices are a useful tool for when the client wishes to maximise PV generation potential in the face of grid restraints, which do not allow export over a certain capacity. 8 Minute Energy Ltd has a wealth of experience in liaising with the local DNO to ensure exact requirements are met when fitting & programming export limitation components.

Installation and implementation


The cherry on the cake, is the final installation phase. After all prior stages have been adequately achieved. From arranging scaffolding, safety nets, solar panel array installation right through to commissioning, testing, monitoring & operation, you are in safe hands!
