“The final tally for small-scale (<100kW) installations in 2022 won’t be known for a while yet, but to the end of November last year there had been been more than 256,711 new systems added” source.
There is quantifiable data for the growing demand of sustainable energy solutions and increasing awareness of the benefits of solar power.
There are several benefits to installing solar panels for your business:
The most significant benefit of commercial solar installation is the cost savings. Solar energy is free, and once you have installed the solar panels, you can generate electricity without incurring any additional costs. This means that you can significantly reduce your energy bills and increase your profits.
Solar energy is a renewable energy source, and it does not produce any harmful emissions. By installing solar panels, businesses can reduce their carbon footprint and contribute to a cleaner environment. Great for the bottom line and your PR.
Commercial solar installation can increase the value of your property. Solar panels are considered an asset and can make your property more attractive to potential buyers.
When considering a commercial solar installation, there are several factors to consider:
Before installing solar panels, your business will need to evaluate its energy needs. The size of the solar panel system needed will depend on the energy consumption of the business. One of our energy-saving experts can help you assess your energy demands and how a solar energy system can support those needs.
The space available for solar panel installation is also an essential factor to consider. If your business has limited roof space, ground-mounted solar panels may be a better option.
The orientation of the solar panels is critical to their efficiency. The panels should be installed in a location that receives maximum sunlight throughout the day.
