Who it is for
Solar for farms, businesses and community buildings
If you have roof space or land and a daytime electricity bill, solar and battery storage can reduce your running costs and your carbon footprint.
Farms & rural estates
Barn roofs, outbuildings and ground-mount arrays put unused land and roof space to work generating income.
Businesses & warehouses
Large roof areas with high daytime usage are ideal for cutting electricity bills with solar PV and battery storage.
Hospitality & community
Hotels, pubs, schools and community halls can reduce running costs and demonstrate visible green commitment.
What we install
Commercial solar PV, batteries, EV charging and heat pumps
Commercial solar PV
Rooftop and ground-mount arrays sized to your building and usage, using Tier 1 panels and commercial inverters.
Battery storage
Store surplus generation for peak times or export to the grid, with systems from Fox ESS, Tesla, Sigenergy and others.
Heat pumps
Air and ground source heat pumps for larger buildings, designed around heat loss and occupancy patterns.
How savings work
What affects solar savings for a business
Solar savings depend on how and when you use electricity, your tariff, and the space you have available. No two businesses are the same, so your quote is based on a survey of your actual premises.
Daytime usage
The more electricity you use during daylight hours, the more you offset from the grid, so savings track your operating pattern.
Tariff & export
Your import tariff, export rates and any time-of-use pricing all affect the return. Battery storage shifts surplus to peak periods.
Roof or ground space
Available area and orientation determine system size. South-facing roofs produce most, but east-west arrays can suit many businesses.
Interest-free credit up to £30,000, subject to status.
How it works
From survey to installation and aftercare
Site survey
A partner surveys your premises, roof structure, electrical capacity and usage profile to design the right system.
Design & quote
You receive a written proposal with equipment, system size, generation estimate and total price. We install through MCS-certified partners.
Installation & aftercare
Installation is arranged at a time that suits your operations, with commissioning, MCS paperwork and ongoing support included.
FAQ
Commercial solar questions
Can solar panels work for a farm or rural business in Scotland?
Yes. Farms and rural businesses often have large barn roofs or unused land ideal for solar. A surveyor checks your roof load, orientation and grid connection, then designs a system sized to your usage. We install through MCS-certified partners experienced with agricultural properties across Scotland.
What size commercial solar system do I need?
System size depends on your roof or ground area, daytime electricity usage and budget. A surveyor assesses your annual consumption and available space, then recommends a kWp rating that maximises self-consumption. Your written quote shows the exact system size and expected generation.
Is finance available for commercial solar?
Interest-free credit up to £30,000, subject to status. For larger commercial systems, ask for the full credit terms in writing alongside your quote so you can compare spreading the cost with paying upfront before deciding.
How long does a commercial installation take?
After survey and design, most commercial installations take one to three weeks depending on system size and complexity. DNO approval can take four to eight weeks for larger systems. Your quote includes a realistic timeline for your specific project.
Can I add battery storage and EV charging?
Yes. Battery storage lets you use surplus generation during peak times or export it, and EV charging points can be integrated with your solar system. Your surveyor recommends the right battery capacity and charger based on your usage and vehicle fleet needs.
