Solar PV and Battery Storage

Commercial Solar PV Installation

Solar PV and battery storage designed around your roof, your energy use and your business, from first survey to commissioning.

Overview

Generate Your Own Power

A well designed solar PV system lets your business generate its own electricity, rely less on the grid and protect itself against rising energy costs. Factories, warehouses and offices with large roofs and daytime energy use are often ideal.

We design every system around your half hourly energy data and your building, so it is sized to deliver a return rather than simply fill the roof. Battery storage can be added to keep surplus generation for later in the day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got Questions?

Is our roof suitable for solar panels?

Most commercial roofs can take solar, but orientation, shading, the condition of the roof and its structure all matter. We assess these during the survey and will tell you honestly if your roof is not a good fit.

How much could solar PV save my business?

It depends on how much electricity you use during daylight hours and the size of the system. We model your savings from your half hourly data before you commit.

Do we need planning permission?

Many commercial rooftop systems fall under permitted development, but there are limits and exceptions, such as listed buildings and conservation areas. We check this as part of the design.

Can battery storage be added later?

Yes. Batteries can often be added to an existing system using a hybrid inverter or a separate AC coupled system.
