Milsom House Care Home is a family run business established in 2006 in Cowbridge, South Wales. With 38 rooms and offering 24 hour care for residents who enjoy warm, well-lit facilities, Milsom House suffered excessive electricity costs and the fluctuating market price impacted business planning and profitability.
Seeking to address rising costs and align with their sustainability goals, Milsom House recently partnered with Celtic Green Energy to install a renewable energy solution.
Celtic Green Energy installed over 100 modern, all black, solar panels and a Solis inverter to meet the home’s energy demands. The installation was carried out with minimal disruption – work was conducted unobtrusively by Celtic Green Energy’s in-house teams. This ensured that residents and staff’s daily routines were wholly unaffected. The manager, Guy Evans, expressed his satisfaction with the process and the professionalism displayed by Celtic Green Energy’s team.
Guy Evans, manager of Milsom House, is a long-term advocate for environmental issues and spearheaded the initiative to transition the care home to solar energy. With a vision of achieving carbon neutrality Guy emphasized the importance of future-proofing the care home for its residents. The move to solar energy is just one part of a larger strategy to reduce the care home’s carbon footprint, alongside other measures such as:
Milsom House’s investment is calculated to deliver significant return within 3 to 4 years, thanks to significantly reduced energy bills and the efficiency of the SOLIS system. The Solis App, which monitors and displays electrical data, has been particularly praised by Guy for its user-friendly interface and ability to provide real-time insights into energy generation.
Beyond the financial benefits, the installation contributes to Milsom House’s broader environmental goals. The home is now on a clear path toward sustainability and serves as a model for other residential care facilities seeking to balance operational efficiency with environmental responsibility.
Whether you use solar energy or rely on the grid, our tailored battery systems give you energy independence, cost savings, and peace of mind.
Guy Evans expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership with Celtic Green Energy, stating:
“We’re incredibly happy with the installation and the professionalism of the team at Celtic Green Energy. The work was completed with no disruption to our residents, who barely noticed it was happening. The solar panels and Solis system are a game-changer for us, helping us cut costs while taking meaningful steps toward carbon neutrality. We’re excited to continue working with Celtic Green Energy on our renewable energy journey.”
