Commercial solar PV that earns its place on the P&L.
Rooftop and ground-mount solar from 50kWp to multi-megawatt for warehouses, manufacturing, hospitality, care and the public sector — designed around your load profile, funded how you want.
- CapEx, lease or fully-funded PPA — same engineering team, different paperwork.
- MCS-certified design, in-house DNO liaison, G99 applications handled end-to-end.
- Half-hourly data analysis so the system is sized to consumption, not roof area.
- Installed without disrupting operations — phased weekend works where required.
Why clients choose us for this
We analyse 12 months of half-hourly data before sizing. That keeps self-consumption above 75% — where the real savings live — instead of over-sizing and exporting cheap.
Buy outright, finance, or take zero-CapEx via a Power Purchase Agreement. We model all three so finance directors can see the trade-offs side by side.
Phased installs, weekend works, fall-arrest scaffolding and full RAMS. We've completed live-site installs at logistics, manufacturing and 24/7 care without a single hour of downtime.
Most delays on commercial solar are grid-application delays. Our in-house team handles G99 / G100 submissions and DNO negotiation — including export-limit and ANM solutions.
Every system is specified DC- or AC-coupled battery-ready so you can layer storage later for peak-shaving, capacity-market revenue or resilience.
Monitoring portal with kWh, kgCO₂e avoided and £ saved per month — exportable for ESG, SECR and CDP reporting.

Frequently asked
What size system do we need?+
It depends on your load profile, not your roof. As a rule of thumb: aim to self-consume 70–80% of generation. We'll model this from your half-hourly data before quoting.
Can you do PPA / zero-CapEx?+
Yes. We work with funders who'll install at no capital cost in exchange for a long-term electricity tariff — typically 30–50% below grid prices, fixed for 20–25 years.
Will it disrupt operations?+
No. We routinely install on live logistics, manufacturing and care sites. Roof works are phased and we use weekend or out-of-hours connections for the cutover.
What about export limits and G99?+
We handle the full DNO process. Where capacity is constrained, we use export-limiting inverters or ANM schemes — usually faster than waiting for a grid reinforcement.
How quickly can it pay back?+
Typical payback on commercial rooftop solar is 5–7 years for self-consumed systems at current grid prices. PPA models pay back from day one (savings vs grid).
