Solar Panels for Warehouses & Factories

How can we help?

Your local team for solar solutions.

Factories and warehouses consume large amounts of electricity — making them perfect candidates for solar energy solutions. Our team specialises in designing and installing high-capacity solar PV systems that help industrial facilities reduce their energy bills and carbon emissions significantly. With tailored designs, durable components, and precise installation, we ensure maximum return on your investment with minimal operational disruption.

We understand the specific challenges of industrial sites — from large roof spans to high daytime energy loads. Our turnkey service includes feasibility studies, structural assessments, and ongoing system monitoring, so you can trust that your facility is powered reliably and sustainably. Partnering with us means taking control of your energy future while enhancing your business’s environmental reputation.

Industrial solar panels for warehouses, factories and units

Warehouses and factories have the two things solar needs: large, unshaded roofs and steady daytime electricity use from lighting, machinery, compressors, chillers and forklift charging. A well-sized system means most of the power is used on site, which is where solar saves the most.

We design industrial solar panel systems for distribution warehouses, manufacturing units, workshops and business parks, from a single unit to multi-building sites, and our own MCS certified team installs them.

What is included

  • A free site survey and an energy report built from your half-hourly meter data
  • Roof surveys, including structural and fragility checks on steel portal frame buildings
  • System design, DNO applications and grid connection approvals
  • Installation planned around your operating hours, with work areas kept apart from staff, vehicles and stock
  • Commercial battery storage for peak shaving and backup
  • EV charging for fleet vans and staff
  • Monitoring, maintenance and cleaning

Paying for it

Businesses can buy outright and usually claim capital allowances, spread the cost with finance, or use a solar PPA with no upfront cost. If you lease your unit, we can help you approach your landlord about using the roof.

Common questions

Do we have to stop work during installation?
No. We work to a method statement agreed with your site manager and keep the install separate from day-to-day operations.

What if our roof is older or fragile?
We check roof condition during the survey and advise on any repairs or overcladding before we design the system.

Can solar cover our whole site?
It depends on your roof space and how much power you use. Your survey report shows exactly how much of your demand solar and batteries can cover.

Operational Savings

High energy bills can eat into profit margins, especially in energy-intensive sectors. By installing a solar PV system, your factory or warehouse can drastically cut daytime energy costs, often generating a return on investment within just a few years.

Solar energy allows you to lock in a portion of your power supply at a fixed rate, protecting your business from rising utility prices. These long-term savings free up capital for reinvestment in machinery, staffing, or other operational needs.

Energy Resilience

Unreliable power or rising costs can disrupt manufacturing and logistics operations. With solar and optional battery storage, your facility gains greater control over energy usage, reducing dependence on the national grid.

This energy independence boosts business continuity and offers peace of mind — especially during peak usage periods or grid outages. It also opens up opportunities to participate in grid-balancing programs and further monetise your system.

Environmental Impact

Sustainability is no longer optional — it’s an expectation. Installing solar panels sends a powerful message to customers, suppliers, and stakeholders that your business is committed to reducing its environmental impact.

With growing pressure to meet ESG goals and future-proof operations, solar installations help demonstrate leadership in the transition to net zero. It can also help you qualify for green certifications, tenders, or funding opportunities linked to sustainable business practices.
