Who it is for
Is Commercial Solar and Battery Right for Your Premises?
If your business, farm or organisation pays a significant electricity bill and has roof or ground space for panels, solar and battery storage can reduce your reliance on grid electricity and protect you from price volatility.
Farms & rural estates
Barn roofs and open land offer space for solar, with batteries storing power for milking equipment, grain drying and farm workshops.
Businesses & warehouses
Cut daytime electricity costs by generating and storing your own power, with backup to keep critical systems running during outages.
Hospitality & public buildings
Hotels, schools and community buildings with steady demand benefit from tariff arbitrage and on-site generation.
What we install
Commercial Solar, Battery, EV and Heat Pump Systems
Our MCS-certified installation partners design and fit systems tailored to your premises, whether you need a single battery for a small business or a full solar-plus-storage array for a farm or warehouse.
Commercial battery storage
Lithium iron phosphate batteries sized for your demand, with smart management to shift usage to cheaper hours.
Solar PV
Roof-mounted or ground-mounted solar arrays designed for your available space and orientation.
EV charging
Workplace charge points that can draw from your solar and battery system to minimise running costs.
Heat pumps
Air source heat pumps for larger buildings, integrated with your battery and solar to maximise efficiency.
How savings work
What Affects the Business Case?
The savings from commercial solar and battery storage depend on factors specific to your premises and how you use electricity. No two sites are the same, which is why a survey matters before any figures are quoted.
- How much electricity you use during the day — businesses with high daytime demand can use more of their own solar directly.
- Your electricity tariff — time-of-use tariffs let a battery charge on cheaper off-peak rates and discharge during peak periods.
- Available roof or ground space — more space means a larger solar array and greater self-generation potential.
- Export value — selling surplus generation back to the grid through a Smart Export Guarantee tariff can add further income.
We do not publish generic savings figures because they would not reflect your actual tariff, consumption or site. A site survey and written quote give you the real numbers for your premises.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size battery does a farm or business need?
It depends on your daytime electricity use, your tariff, and how much solar you can generate. A site survey looks at your meter, consumption patterns and available space to size a system that matches your demand rather than over- or under-specifying it.
Can I add battery storage to existing commercial solar panels?
Yes, in most cases. A battery can be retrofitted to an existing commercial solar array using AC coupling or by upgrading to a hybrid inverter. The survey checks your current inverter capacity, wiring and export arrangements to ensure compatibility.
How do commercial battery savings work?
Savings depend on how much of your usage you can shift to cheaper off-peak hours, how much solar you can store and use on-site instead of exporting, and your tariff structure. A business with high daytime demand and solar generation typically benefits most. Actual savings depend on your tariff, usage and system size.
Is finance available for commercial installations?
Interest-free credit up to £30,000, subject to status. Ask about payment options when you request your written, no-obligation quote, and you will receive the full cost in writing before you decide.
Do you install EV charging and heat pumps for businesses too?
Yes, our installation partners can fit EV charging points and, where suitable, heat pumps for larger buildings alongside solar and battery storage. A site survey determines what is practical for your premises and how the systems work together.
