SOLAR PANEL INSTALLATION

What Are Solar Panels?

By absorbing the natural energy of sunlight within the PV (photovoltaic) cells within your solar panels, you can generate your own electricity for your property. The energy is first taken in as DC (direct current) energy before being converted, using your inverter, to AC (alternating current) energy to be used by all your appliances.

Excess energy you generate from your commercial solar panel system can be stored in batteries to be used at a later date, or sold back into the national grid.

How Can Commercial Solar Panel Installation Help Me?

The ability to generate your own energy makes you less reliant on the national grid for your energy needs. This way, you have the capability to be independent of the grid and will greatly reduce your business’s carbon footprint. The real game-changer amongst modern commercial solar panel installation comes with battery storage. This allows any energy you don’t use during sunlight hours to be used later on directly from the battery. Surplus energy generated during the day from your commercial solar panels is safely stored in batteries for use during evenings and duller days.

By choosing Eco Systems Group for your commercial solar panel installation you will benefit from our amazing range of products which each have their own unique benefits that our office team will be happy to talk you through so that you can make the best choice for supplying green energy to your commercial property.

Benefits of Solar Panels for Commercial Properties

Choosing solar for your commercial property is one of the best choices you can make not only for your business but for the future of the planet. Solar panels generate one of the cleanest sources of energy available on the market today.

Energy-Saving Capabilities

Installation of commercial solar will allow your business to benefit from free energy all year round. Even on gloomier days, sunlight will be able to charge your batteries and power your business. This lowers your reliance on national grid resources – saving you energy and money as you generate your own power!

Increase the Value of Your Property

Commercial units, offices and farms are just a few of the types of commercial properties that will see their value increase with a high-quality solar installation. While there are too many variables that determine exactly how much you’ll gain – adding value to your property while decreasing your outgoings is always a bonus!

Become a Greener Company!

Producing your own clean energy from a commercial solar panel installation would be great to tell your customers about. Knowing that their chosen company are conscious in their attempts to prevent the adverse effects of fossil fuels can leave them safe in knowing they’re in capable and responsible hands. Once you have a more accurate number on the amount of energy you’d be producing, you can even quote these directly to current and future clients in your own campaigns and advertising.

Low Maintenance

Maintaining commercial solar panels is easier than you might’ve thought. Many panels are now self-cleaning with natural rainwater and will not have a negative effect on their productivity. Just like taking energy from the grid, you can be safe in the knowledge that your commercial solar panel installation will stand the test of time. All our products will come with warranties of up to 30 years and we will only recommend the most suitable products for your project.

What Makes a Great Solar System?

With so many products on the market, it can be hard to decide what panels, batteries, inverters and add-ons suit your needs best. At Eco Systems Group, we can design a bespoke system to ensure that as much of your annual consumption as possible can be fulfilled with your commercial solar panel system.

By asking a few questions about the energy usage of your property, property size and what kind of extras you might like to add to your package we are able to use our state-of-the-art solar mapping software to design the panel layout for your system. With some help from yourself, we can work out the best placement for your inverter, batteries and all the brains of the system before sending a free technical surveyor to confirm that everything is viable to be completed as planned.

Solar Panels

Sourcing the best solar panels for your commercial solar installation is something we pride ourselves on being able to fulfil as soon as possible to meet any deadlines you might have. Our main product range includes some of the highest quality solar panels available on the market today with the best efficiency ratings. However, if you have an idea of the brand or range of panels you might like to use, we can source these for you to fit your needs. With advancements in technology, commercial solar panels are becoming increasingly cost-effective, making them a viable option for businesses looking to reduce their energy costs and carbon footprint.

Inverters

In order for your commercial solar panel installation to be used by your property to its full potential, a highly efficient inverter must be added. Commercial inverters come in a range of sizes, with some capable of handling multiple arrays of solar panels, making them suitable for large-scale commercial installations. Simply put, this will convert the direct current (DC) power directly produced by your panels into alternating current (AC) power that can be used by appliances such as lighting, computers and anything else your property might require. Advanced inverter technology includes features such as real-time monitoring, remote diagnostics, and grid management capabilities, making them an essential component of any commercial solar panel system.

Batteries

Battery storage for commercial solar panel systems allows excess energy generated by solar panels to be stored for later use, instead of being sent back to the grid. This helps to ensure a constant, reliable energy supply and reduces the dependence on grid power. Commercial battery storage systems are available in various sizes, depending on the needs of the facility. With the use of advanced technology, commercial battery storage systems can be optimized for maximum efficiency, making them an attractive option for businesses looking to become more energy independent and reduce their carbon footprint.

Add-Ons

For commercial solar panel installations, add-ons such as optimisers, electric vehicle charging systems, and solar water heating systems can offer additional benefits and cost savings. Optimisers can improve the overall performance and efficiency of the solar panel system, increasing the amount of energy produced. Electric vehicle charging systems can be a valuable offering for businesses with fleets of electric vehicles, while solar water heating systems can help to reduce energy costs associated with heating water for commercial use. By integrating these add-ons into a commercial solar panel installation, businesses can not only reduce their carbon footprint but save even more money in the long run!

Testimonials

Good work all round, all questions answered promptly and thoroughly, folks knew their stuff and were careful to check the best possible result given existing bits of broken polystyrene in the back wall. Larger than average 3 bed semi done in about 3.5 hours once they were set up. More aesthetic than practical, but I was particularly pleased with how well they matched the morter to the existing one for filling the holes at the end of the job. 25 year warantee was a particularly nice touch. Came sooner than booked due to a cancellation which was a bonus. Really noticing the difference already.

Great service, from a comprehensive survey of my requirements through to completion of the work by an excellent team. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

Absolute perfection. Courteous, cleaned up after. Explained procedure and very efficient all round

From the initial survey, quotation and installation the service was excellent! Every member of staff that I dealt with was friendly, and knowledgeable! I was extremely nervous about having our roof insulated but I needn't have worried! The installation was done in a timely manner and the men even cleaned up after!! Highly recommend!

The 2 engineers did an excellent job of keeping the drilling holes to a minimum and cleaned up very well afterwards. In addition to the cavity wall insulation, they also had to fit a new vent due to our wood burner in the living room. They checked with us throughout the project that we were happy with what they were doing and asked for feedback at the end. Very professional and polite guys. We will hopefully learn over the hot summer and cold winter how effective the work has been. Well done team!

Terry Dunford did the surveying for our property he was very knowledgeable and gave very good advice which we check and was correct in everything he said. The men who came do the cavity wall insulation were also very good, they respected us and our home,they explained what they were going to do and warned us about the noise. They cleared up after they had completed the work and asked us to check that we were happy with the way they had left our property which we were. We would highly recommend this company to anyone thinking of having any cavity wall insulation done .

Frequently Asked Questions

How Many Solar Panels Do I Need?

The number of solar panels you need for your commercial solar installation project depends on a number of factors including your energy consumption. Using your daily usage statistics, we are able to calculate the projected savings relative to your installation size. The amount of space available and your budget will also play a role in determining the number of panels you can install. It’s best to consult with a professional solar team such as Eco Systems in order to provide you with a detailed proposal.

Do Commercial Solar Systems Have to Be Installed on Roofs?

Your commercial solar installation does not necessarily have to go on the roof. They can also be installed on the ground or other structures (even walls!), provided there is sufficient sunlight for them to operate efficiently. The choice of location for your solar panels is typically based on factors such as available space, the orientation and tilt of the surface (which can be adjusted or manufactured with framing) as well as impacts of shading from nearby buildings or trees. The aim of your commercial solar installation should be to ensure that the panels receive the maximum amount of sunlight possible – this isn’t always done from roofs!

How Long Do Commercial Solar Systems Last?

The lifespan of a commercial solar installation depends on several factors such as the quality of the components, the level of maintenance, and the local weather conditions. Generally, solar panels have a lifespan of 25-30 years, although some newer models have longer lifespans. It’s important to note that regular maintenance can help extend the lifespan of all components. Some commercial solar panel systems installed in the early 90s are still working well today! Additionally, the warranties provided by manufacturers may cover certain repairs or replacements within a specified period.

How Does Solar Work in A Power Cut?

Solar panels generate electricity by converting sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity. When there is a power cut, the solar panels continue to generate DC electricity, but the electricity cannot be used by the property because the electrical grid is down. To keep using electricity during a power cut, you would need to install battery storage. Battery storage allows excess electricity generated by the solar panels to be stored and used when there is a power cut, providing backup power for the property.
