Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes. Many businesses successfully install solar on leased properties with the permission of the landlord or building owner. We can work alongside all parties to help make the process as straightforward as possible.

  • In most cases, commercial solar installations fall under permitted development rights and do not require planning permission. If your property is listed, located within a conservation area, or has specific restrictions, we will advise on any approvals required before work begins.

  • The cost depends on factors such as roof size, energy usage, system capacity and whether battery storage is included. Every project is different, which is why we provide tailored quotations along with projected savings and return on investment calculations based on meteoric weather reports from the last 20 years.

  • Most commercial solar projects are completed within a few days to a few weeks, depending on the size and complexity of the installation. We'll provide a clear project timeline before any work begins with little to no disruption to your day-to-day runnings.

  • In most cases, no. The majority of installation work takes place on the roof, allowing your business to continue operating as normal. Any necessary electrical works are carefully planned to minimise disruption. We also work Out of Hours to suit your business needs.

  • Yes. Battery storage allows you to store excess energy generated during the day and use it when needed, helping to maximise savings and reduce reliance on the grid.

  • Yes. We can advise on available grants, incentives and funding options that may help reduce the upfront investment. Availability varies depending on your location and project requirements.
