Why Go Solar for Your Business?
Lower Electricity Bills
Commercial solar can significantly reduce your energy bills, with savings increasing over time as you generate more of your own power. For many organisations, solar energy becomes cheaper than buying electricity from the grid, offering meaningful long-term financial benefits.
Protection from Rising Energy Prices
Relying on renewable energy helps shield your business from ongoing energy price fluctuations. Generating your own electricity gives you greater cost stability and makes budgeting and forecasting more predictable.
Meet Sustainability & Carbon Targets
Installing solar is an effective way to meet environmental and carbon reduction goals. It reduces your reliance on non-renewable energy and demonstrates your commitment to sustainable operations, which is increasingly expected in many sectors.
Strengthen Brand Image & CSR
Adopting solar power showcases your organisation’s commitment to environmental responsibility. This can enhance your brand reputation, appeal to eco-conscious customers, and support your wider corporate social responsibility objectives.
Improve Long-Term Efficiency & Value
A commercial solar system is a long-term asset that enhances operational efficiency and can increase the value of your property. It’s a modern, future-ready investment that delivers returns well beyond the installation period.

Commercial Solar FAQ
How much does a commercial solar energy system cost?
Commercial solar is not the same for everyone. Each solar PV system is different. The price depends on your solar energy goals and your building details. For example, roof space, and infrastructure. How much energy do you use during the day or the night? How much tax do you pay, and can solar incentives help?
ECO-Synergy can also help with advice and funding options for your project, through various schemes and specialised financial companies, dedicated to the renewable energy sector.
Do you require planning permission to install solar panels for businesses in the UK?
Most businesses and community buildings can install solar panels without planning permission, if they follow some rules. These rules are meant to reduce the visual impact of the solar panels on the building and the local area.
However, some buildings or sites that are historically important, such as listed buildings or ancient monuments, need planning permission to install solar panels.
Do I need to consider a battery storage with commercial solar panels?
A solar battery can store the excess electricity that your solar panels produce, so you can use it later when you need it. This can be useful if your business works outside normal business hours or has a large rooftop that can generate more solar power than you use. However, not every business needs a solar battery. It depends on how much energy you use and when
Does your business have to own the site to install commercial solar panels?
Solar is a great option if your business has a large roof or land area and plans to stay on the site for at least the next 10 years. It is best if the business owns the property or has a long-term lease on it. Alternatively, permission from your landlord can be requested.
Do I need to declare income from solar panels?
Solar panels on residential homes are tax free. But businesses and landlords have to pay tax on them. They are income tax or corporation tax in the UK.

What size solar energy system will my business need?
Many factors affect this question. For example, your building size, your energy usage, and how much you want to offset. A system that offsets 70% of your energy costs will be bigger than one that offsets 30%.

How do I estimate my company’s potential savings?
Your solar savings depend on many things. The main ones are your energy use and peak time. These show how much you can offset and how much you pay for power. Then we check your roof space and facility infrastructure. The more panels you can fit, the more you can save. To estimate your savings, we add your energy use and subtract your roof’s production potential. Other factors are the panel efficiency, roof direction, and local energy prices.
What types of buildings are compatible with solar?
Solar works for most buildings with strong roofs and enough space for panels and racking. For small buildings with less roof space, ground mounts are an option. You need to own the building. If you rent it or lease it, the owner must agree to the commercial solar panel installation.
