How much is a typical solar panel installation for businesses?

Every business is different; and so is its solar PV project, which means the cost of an installation can vary significantly. Factors influencing the project include system size, panel location and installation needs such as scaffolding and accessibility. The electrical electrical components required, the product quality and warranty duration will also vary depending on your final solution. After your initial enquiry for a solar installation for your business, we will discuss these aspects and offer a preliminary cost estimate. If this is satisfactory, we will conduct a site assessment, after which we will present a detailed proposal.

Typical system sizes and costs for business solar systems are:

  • 50kW – £50k
  • 100kW – £80k
  • 250kW – £175k
  • 500kW – £300k

Costs can vary depending on the installation requirements, to get a no-obligation quote contact us today.

Business solar financing options

For businesses preferring not to allocate their own funds and seeking alternative financing options, we provide experienced advice on potential solutions. Despite the end of basic grants for solar panels in 2010 with the end of the Feed-in Tariff (FIT) scheme, there may still be other funding opportunities available in your local area. Please reach out to us for more information.

Key benefits of solar panels for businesses

There are significant benefits to be had from investing in solar energy for your business, whether your are in retail, logistics, manufacturing or services and whether you are large or small. Given escalating energy prices, optimising your empty roof space can be a wise choice. Numerous businesses have already recognised the substantial savings that solar energy can provide. Just by employing the roof space of your business property, agricultural structures, manufacturing facilities, storage buildings, educational institutions, or medical centres, you can install solar energy generation systems and begin producing clean solar power for your business.

Cost savings

Solar panels generate free, green electricity during daytime hours, lowering your business demand for energy from the grid and potentially saving thousands of pounds on energy bills.

Solar income

Ideally, you would use all the solar power onsite, however any surplus power can be sold to the grid.

Financial stability

With energy prices predicted to stay at record highs for the foreseeable future, commercial solar panels allow you to effectively secure your electricity at a set price, making financial forecasting much easier.

Lower carbon footprint

Generating your own solar energy will significantly reduce your carbon footprint, increase your company’s sustainable credentials and improve your business reputation.

Low risk investment

Solar PV is a reliable and safe investment vehicle that provides returns exceeding those of traditional low risk financial products.

Energy security

With the grid currently struggling to generate significant electricity supply to meet the UK’s growing energy demands, and the government’s introduction of mandatory energy audits for large businesses via the Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS) and possible future energy usage regulation, independent solar installations are and excellent backup measure.

What is included in your solar PV installation for your business?

Surveys, Designs, and Planning

Prior to your installation our team will carry out all necessary surveys, planning applications and secure permissions from your energy supplier for your installation to go ahead.

PV Panels

Your panels will have a 25 year performance warranty as a minimum and will be sourced from a top tier manufacturer. The exact specification of your panel will be determined by your required output and whether you require a specific colour of module. See the types of solar panels we supply for your installation.

Inverter(s)

These convert the DC power you receive from your solar panels into AC power that your home or business can use. Your installation may require one inverter or a small series which will be decided at your pre-installation survey and will be based on the space available to mount your inverters and the size of the system that we are installing. If you’re a commercial client your inverter will be provided with a 20 year warranty.

Mounting, rail and/or trays

We will source and specify the correct mounting system to install your panels. There is a mounting system for almost every roof – tiles, slate or metal – and we also provide in-roof systems for new builds and projects that involve a re-roof. If you have opted for a ground mount system we will specify, source and erect your frame as part of your installation. The mounting system and roof type is one of the main variables in installation cost.

Electrical Installation (Insurance backed through NICEIC)

Our fully trained electricians will install all the required electrical equipment including cabling and string controllers to connect your panels and inverters and AC & DC isolators which can turn off the power if required. The installation also includes the AC supply which connects the inverter to the existing electrical generator and a generation meter which records the amount of electricity your installation is generating. Our team can carry out additional electrical works if required.

Scaffolding & Access

If your installation is roof mounted, it will require a temporary scaffold and access equipment; and it may also require internal netting. It is very important to us that our team remains safe on site at all times and working with the correct safety and access equipment is paramount. The access requirements for your site are one of the main variables in terms of project cost.

Miscellaneous

Customers may require structural assessments, detailed CAD drawings or schematics which can all be arranged as part of your project. We also support remote monitoring, which allows you to view the generation of your installation via an app and see how your system is performing.

Recommended Annual Service

We recommend an annual service to ensure that your systems remains in full working order and that you maximise your investment.

Planning permission

The good news is that if planning permission does need to be arranged, we can provide full assistance or complete applications on your behalf to ensure the process is as quick and easy as possible.

Nevertheless, there are critical constraints and criteria that need to be fulfilled to utilise these permitted development rights, including:

  • A solar installation mounted on a roof shouldn’t extend more than 200mm, except for flat roof installations where the solar PV should be less than 1m above the flat roof’s highest point.
  • Roof-mounted solar installations should be more than 1m distant from the roof’s edge or wall joint. For areas of outstanding natural beauty or other similar restrictions, panels should not be placed on the roof slope or wall facing the road.
  • Solar installations should be positioned to minimize their impact on the property’s external look and the locality’s amenity, while unutilised equipment should be dismantled as swiftly as feasible.

Planning permission is necessary if your business solar PV system is planned for installation on a listed building or a location designated as a scheduled ancient monument or world heritage site.

Geo Green Power will be on hand to advise on any planning requirements for small, large or bespoke installations. If permission does needs to be sought, we can provide full assistance in completing applications and supplying any information requested by the local planning authority to ensure the process is as quick and easy as possible.
