Benefits of Solar Panels for your business
You can reduce your energy bills by up to 90%
By getting PV solar panel installation, you will pay less - meaning you'll get a guaranteed return on investment.
It can secure your energy for the next 25 years.
With no maintenance and no disruption to your business, you can reduce your dependency on commercial electricity companies.
Cut your carbon footprint
Solar electricity is green, renewable energy. A typical business solar PV system could save around one tonne of carbon per year (depending on where you live in the UK).
Renewable Energy Source
Among all the benefits of solar panels, the most important thing is that solar energy is a truly renewable energy source. It can be harnessed in all areas of the world and is available every day. We cannot run out of solar energy, unlike some of the other sources of energy.
Solar energy will be accessible as long as we have the sun, therefore sunlight will be available to us for at least 5 billion years when according to scientists the sun is going to die.
Low Maintenance Costs
Solar energy systems generally don’t require a lot of maintenance. You only need to keep them relatively clean, so cleaning them a couple of times per year will do the job. If in doubt, you can always rely on specialised cleaning companies, which offer this service from around £25-£35.
Most reliable solar panel manufacturers offer 20-25 years warranty.
Also, as there are no moving parts, there is no wear and tear. The inverter is usually the only part that needs to be changed after 5-10 years because it is continuously working to convert solar energy into electricity and heat (solar PV vs. solar thermal). Apart from the inverter, the cables also need maintenance to ensure your solar power system runs at maximum efficiency.
So, after covering the initial cost of the solar system, you can expect very little spending on maintenance and repair work.
Top Tips! Getting the most out of your solar PV system
Reduce your electricity use
During daylight hours, you’ll be generating electricity even on cloudy days, but if you’re using more power around your business than your panels are generating, or it’s during the evening and your panels are not generating any power, you’ll be using electricity from the grid.
Reducing your electricity use can help lower your bills and reduce your carbon footprint. If you’re claiming a Smart Export Guarantee tariff, you’ll receive a payment for every unit of electricity you export. Remember to turn devices off and avoid standby, and see our energy saving quick wins for more tips to reduce your energy use.
Use more electricity during the day
As your PV system will be working at its peak during daylight hours, it’s a good idea to think about reorganising domestic activities such as washing, dishwashing and ironing. If you’re business most of the day, then this will be easier to do, but if you work during the day then try setting up timers for your dishwasher and washing machine.
Insulate your business
If you have electric heating, programming your timers to come on during daylight hours will help you save money on your electricity bills. To keep that heat in your business for longer, insulate your roof or loft, and add insulation to your cavity wall or solid wall. Draught-proof your doors and windows as well to prevent draughts.
Combine with other renewable systems
You can combine PV with other space-heating renewable technologies such as heat pumps, solar thermal systems and wind turbines. These technologies work well with each other, as PV can be set up to help power a heat pump, for example, or several of these systems can feed into a thermal store.
