Commercial Solar · Birmingham & the West Midlands
Commercial solar with a 3-year payback.
Energy prices up, panel costs down. Many of our commercial designs now pay for themselves in around three years. We handle everything: CAD design, planning, installation and lifelong aftercare, with directors on every project.
Why now
The economics have flipped.
Many of our current commercial designs return their cost in around three years — then generate free power for decades.
Tier-one panels warranted for a quarter century, backed by MCS certification and independent auditing.
Fully funded installations that are cash-flow positive from day one — and can be structured to offset tax.
Bespoke design
Designed in CAD, around your roof and your load.
Our team has designed over 100 MW of solar. Every proposal includes a full CAD roof model, shading analysis and generation forecast matched to your half-hourly consumption, so the system you buy is the system that pays back fastest.

Before you commit
The questions finance directors actually ask.
- What payback should we expect? The real equation — cost per kWp, your import tariff, and why self-consumption matters more than sunshine.
- How do capital allowances work? Solar is special-rate plant, so full expensing does not apply. The routes that do — and what they are worth.
- Can we do it with no capital? Fully funded and PPA structures compared against a loan and outright purchase, trade-offs included.
- Do we need planning permission? Most commercial rooftop solar is permitted development. Where that stops, and what we submit for you.

Is our roof suitable?
Most commercial roofs are, flat or pitched, steel or membrane. Our survey checks structure, orientation and shading, and the CAD design works around obstructions like plant, skylights and vents.
How is the system sized?
Against your half-hourly consumption data, not a rule of thumb. We size for maximum self-consumption first, power you use on-site is worth roughly three times what you'd earn exporting it.
What about tax and capital allowances?
Solar qualifies for capital allowances, and fully funded options can be structured to offset tax. Your proposal sets out the figures for your accountant to review.
Can we add battery storage later?
Yes. We design every system battery-ready. Adding storage later is straightforward, though installing both together usually gets the best combined price and payback.
