What influences the cost of solar panel installation for a commercial business? 

For cost-effective solar panel installations, modern metal roofs are ideal, as mounting costs are lowest. You can install solar PV on nearly all roof types, however some may involve higher costs due to their complexity.

Site accessibility and safety requirements are central to planning. Unique property features can demand additional scaffolding or safety solutions, and may affect the total budget.

Outdated electrical systems might need upgrades to support your new solar setup. Any required upgrades will be factored into the project cost to ensure the system operates efficiently and you have full visibility.

Premium solar panels and inverters, sourced from tier-one suppliers, come with the benefit of reliability and extended warranties. The specific products chosen will impact the system's overall budget.

We have modelled a simple solar panel system in Swindon to provide an overview of what your investment could generate.

FAQs for solar panels in Swindon

Where Can You Install Solar Panels?
Solar panels can be installed on flat or pitched roofs using metal frames to secure them. For new roofs, in-roof solar replaces roof tiles and lies flush with the surface. Solar slate tiles mimic regular slate for listed buildings. Panels can also go on building facades. For large sites without suitable roof space, ground installations work well. Tubs allow low profile mounting and frames provide increased clearance on farms, so livestock can still roam. Read more
Do I need Planning Permission?
If planning permission is needed, we can provide full support with applications to streamline the process. Some key limits are:
  • A roof mounted solar installation must not protrude more than 200mm, unless it is a flat roof installation where the solar PV must be less than 1m above the highest part of the flat roof.
  • A roof mounted solar installation must be further than 1m away from the edge of the roof or wall joint. For AONB or similarly restricted locations, the panels must not be on the roof slope or wall facing the road.
  • Solar installations should be sited so as to minimise their effect on the external appearance of the property and the amenity of the area, while unused equipment should be removed as soon as possible.
Listed buildings, scheduled monuments and world heritage sites require permission. We advise on requirements and assist with applications for quick approval.
How Much Does Solar Cost?
The cost of a solar installation depends on several factors like system size, placement, installation needs, product quality, and labor. When you first contact us, we’ll discuss these variables and provide an indicative estimate for you to consider.. If you’re happy with the estimate, we’ll survey your site and provide a detailed proposal. The survey looks at your roof or land space, sunlight access, and any unique needs. This helps us tailor the perfect system design and installation plan. Our final proposal outlines the full costs and expected energy savings so you can make an informed decision. We aim to make the process straightforward for both residential and commercial properties. Typical commercial system sizes and costs are: 50kW – £55,000 100kW – £85,000 250kW – £200,000 500kW – £370,000 Typical domestic system sizes and costs are: 1.2kW – £5,000 3kW – £7,000 6kw – £12,000 Costs can vary depending on the installation requirements, to get a no-obligation quote contact us today.
What finance options are available for businesses looking to invest in solar panels?
There are a number of options for businesses to access finance to fund a solar PV project. These range from Asset Finance and Power Purchase Agreements to solar panel leasing schemes. There is more information on these finance options here.
Are there any local grants available for solar panels
We aren't aware of any specific grants available for installing solar panels in the London area, however an investment in renewable energy may be eligible for business development grant funding. We recommend talking to your local council and the London Chamber of Commerce for information on business development grants in your area.
