Since September 2017, over 18,700 solar panels installed at Larkhill Garrison have generated 6.16 GWh of energy. By using this energy to power buildings on site and distributing any surplus through the private wire network for use elsewhere across the Army footprint, the installation has reduced reliance on externally supplied energy and contributes to a more resilient, sustainable and cost-efficient Defence estate.
