Case Study: High-Efficiency Distribution (Leicestershire)
Sector: Warehousing & Logistics
Reflecting the high standards required in Market Harborough’s expanding logistics sector, Geo Green Power installed a high-capacity system for a major distribution facility near the A6 corridor. To address their significant energy demands for climate-controlled storage and automated sorting, we designed a bespoke solar array that significantly offset their grid reliance. This project illustrates how high-performance solar power is a critical competitive advantage, providing immediate cost reductions and long-term carbon savings for local logistics leaders.

Market Harborough businesses can access financial support to accelerate their transition to green energy. Through Harborough District Council sustainability initiatives and regional funds, such as those supported by the Leicester and Leicestershire Enterprise Partnership (LLEP), eligible SMEs can frequently find match-funded grants designed to support energy-efficiency upgrades.
Furthermore, the UK government’s Annual Investment Allowance (AIA) and Full Expensing schemes allow companies to deduct 100% of the cost of their installation from taxable profits in the first year.

Installation Process
Your Enquiry
Customers can send an initial enquiry using our online form, via our online Live Chat, over the phone or they can simply send an email. Either way, we’re delighted that you have thought of us!
After receiving an initial enquiry, our surveyors will either call or send a customer information form to gain some more information on your project and the property. They will also view the site via satellite.
It’s essential for our team to understand your current electricity costs, energy usage and the space available for solar panels to determine the size of the system required and whether it will meet your objectives.
Pre-installation Assessment
If the project is progressing we’ll arrange a survey to visit the site and discuss the installation further. We’ll look at the roof and external space and assess the best location for the layout of panels, the inverters and the cable run.
A site visit enables us to understand the project in more detail and assess the costs involved. This is also a perfect opportunity for a thorough discussion about products and warranties and a chance for you to ask lots of questions.
Once the on-site survey is completed, our surveyor will discuss the project with the rest of the team, feedback on any queries raised during the site visit and provide a personalised quote for you to consider.
Once we receive the go-ahead your project is handed over to our operations team and we begin making your renewable energy plans a reality.
Installation Process Explained
For normal domestic properties, there is no requirement to gain planning permission, as long as the property is not a listed building or in a conservative area; and the installation sticks to the guidelines. Standalone panels can also be installed without seeking planning permission, although the size of the array is limited to 9m2, and 4m tall. The array must also be at least 5m from the property.
In general, the requirements for commercial installations are the same as domestic installations, however, we can provide specific advice about your individual situation as necessary. Our team will manage all of the planning requirements on your behalf. This will include local planning applications and liaising with your DNO to enable you to connect your system to the electricity network.
Pre-installation survey
Two lead members of our technical team will visit your site to specify scaffolding and access equipment, agree on the installation process and ensure that when we come to install we have everything we need. Any issues highlighted during the initial survey will be carefully considered and a plan or resolution agreed upon with you. This could be an alternative cable route or a slight modification to the design.
When booking the pre-installation survey you’ll be given an indicative installation date and following our visit we will be able to confirm this with you.
Installation
A week or so before your installation our scheduling team will contact you to confirm that everything is still on track and confirm start dates, any deliveries, and if required the erection of scaffolding.
Throughout the installation, our scheduling team will be on hand, and a site contact will also keep you posted on how we are progressing. We aim for the process to be as smooth as possible from start to finish using our considerable experience of installing Solar PV for over 10 years.
On the final day of the installation, one of our team will walk you through the system and explain how everything works. You will also be registered for online monitoring if this is something that you have opted for.
Post-installation Support
Following completion, our electricians will provide a detailed schematic, which will outline the new system and the positioning of the solar PV components. You will also receive a copy of the electrical certificate, a solar array test report and a full Operations & Maintenance Manual. If your scheme qualifies, you will receive a Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) certificate within two or three days of us registering your installation.
Aftercare
Your full installation will be under warranty for 2 years; should you encounter any issues or concerns you can contact the team and we will be happy to resolve them either over the phone or return to the site as required.
We recommend an annual service and system check to ensure that your system remains in full working order!
FAQs for Solar Panels in Market Harborough
Where Can You Install Solar Panels?
Do I need Planning Permission?
- 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.
