What is Solar PV?
Solar PV (photovoltaic) systems convert sunlight into electricity using panels mounted on your roof or a ground-mount structure. Commercial systems typically range from 10 kWp to 1 MWp+ and connect directly to your building's electrical supply, offsetting grid consumption.
Typical Costs
Small commercial (10–50 kWp): £12,000–£45,000. Medium (50–250 kWp): £45,000–£200,000. Large (250 kWp–1 MWp): £200,000–£700,000. Costs vary by roof type, access, and DNO requirements.
Typical Timeframes
Desktop feasibility: 3 working days. Design & DNO application: 2–6 weeks. Installation: 2–4 weeks. Total project: 6–12 weeks typical.

Solar PV Questions
How long does a commercial solar PV installation take?
A typical commercial rooftop system (50–100 kWp) takes 2–4 weeks from scaffold erection to commissioning, depending on roof type and G98/G99 requirements.
What ROI can I expect from solar PV?
Most commercial clients see 15–25% annual returns and payback within 4–7 years, depending on consumption profile, export rates, and system size.
Do I need planning permission for solar panels?
Most commercial installations fall under permitted development rights. Listed buildings and conservation areas require planning approval — we handle the application process for you.
