Commercial Solar Installation — School in Stretford, Manchester

Manchester Renewables is carrying out a multi-phase commercial rooftop solar installation at a school in Stretford, Manchester — a short distance from Old Trafford cricket ground.

Around 400 panels were fitted on the main school building roof last year. The current phase adds three more sections: 144 panels going on the canopies (being cladded during filming), 110 panels pending on the lower roof, and another 40 panels on the section captured here — bringing the site to roughly 694 panels in total across all phases.

The view from the rooftop takes in the school's canopies and main roof, with a crane lifting the remaining panels into place, terraced housing visible in the background, and the Manchester city skyline in the distance.
