Commercial solar panels will save you money on energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint.
Commercial solar panels for your business
Running a business usually comes with expensive energy bills, especially those that have a high electricity demand like Tropical Ices (a premier desserts and savoury specialist). By investing in renewable energy and energy-saving measures, business owners can save money on their energy bills and protect their businesses from future energy cost rises.
Solar panels will benefit both large and small businesses. They’re ideal for offices, agricultural buildings, factories, warehouses, schools, hospitals, and retail buildings.
So, why not install solar panels on the roof space on your commercial building? This free electricity can be used to power lighting, computers, machinery, and electric vehicle chargers. If your business operates primarily at night, you can store the electricity generated throughout the day using solar battery storage.

What are the benefits of installing solar panels on my commercial property?
Electricity cost savings
Installing solar panels will generate free electricity for your business that can be used during the day, or a night if you opt for solar battery storage.
Smart Export Guarantee (SEG)
Depending on how much solar power your business generates it may be possible to sell any surplus electricity back to the grid. Generally, a business with high electricity demand will use most of the electricity generated.
Future-proofing your business
With energy prices increasing, installing solar panels on your commercial property will future-proof your business and increase the value of your business property.
Reduce your carbon footprint
Installing solar panels will reduce your carbon emissions considerably and show you have a positive attitude towards the environment.
What should I consider when installing commercial solar panels?
Installation costs
The cost for commercial solar panels will vary based on the complexity of the job, the number of solar panels needed and if you opt for solar battery storage. If you contact us, we can supply you with a free and accurate quotation.
Maintenance costs
There are very few maintenance costs involved following a commercial solar panel installation. Cleaning your solar panels every so often will help to ensure maximum efficiency. Depending on the height of your roof, a professional cleaner may be required. We would also recommend that you have your solar panels checked by a professional every 4 or 5 years.
Planning permission
Most commercial solar panel installations fall under permitted developments. Planning permission may be required if your business property is a historic or listed building. We’d recommend speaking with your local council to discuss any planning permission concerns, alternatively, we are happy to deal with this on your behalf.
