Why Hampshire Businesses Are Switching to Solar

With such huge savings more and more businesses are heading for solar energy

Commercial solar energy benefits you both financially and environmentally, you could start reducing your energy bills by up to 60%. Overtime this can make you huge savings.

Your premises can utilise the energy that daylight brings using solar PV, as businesses have a high energy use in commercial properties – lighting, air conditioning, computers, servers, and high demanding electrical items such as workplace EV chargers, electric forklifts or commercial battery banks it means the majority of energy generated by PV is often used on-site. As all the energy is used efficiently, with low level of surplus going to the grid, utilising the generated onsite increases the returns, and maximises carbon reductions.

Installation costs are also often also lower per kWp installed compared to domestic properties, due to the simplicity and scale of the panel arrays, the results are a high rate of return – commonly between 12-25% per year.

The payback period of commercial energy can be as little as four years, and with energy efficient financing you can have your new system installed with no additional overheads.
