Solar panels for businesses
As a private individual, you can, of course, install PV panels on your own home. Using solar panels for business is also an attractive option. As a small, medium-sized or large company, you will soon be consuming a lot more power and energy than you have been, an increase that will come to represent a significant part of your running costs. Moreover, the consumption and generation of energy is under a magnifying glass these days, and PV can help you and your business to tackle this sustainably.
What kind of solar panels can I choose from?
While some buildings have a pitched roof that catches a lot of sunlight during the day, the situation can often be different. If there is little roof area available, for example, in high-rise buildings, or if the roof is used for other installations or facilities, vertical PV panels can be fitted to the façade of the building. These can be standard sizes, or customised to fit between windows and other elements of the façade.
The different sizes of PV panels
Rectangular or square, solar panels come in many different sizes. Smaller units can fit between other rooftop or wall-mounted facilities, while larger panels are perfect for field setups. There is A PV panel suitable for every building and construction.
Applications solar panels and installations
If roofing needs replacing, you should install PV panels to optimise cost and investment. You can create a whole field of PV panels on a piece of land where building is not possible or permitted. The latest generation of PV panels makes possible many more potential installations than was previously achievable.
Efficiency and payback period
Sustainability and clean generation of energy is increasingly important. With sustainability comes efficiency. You want an efficient installation that pays for itself with an appropriate output for the building and the business.
The efficiency of PV panels depends on placement, orientation, size, take-up of the generated power and, of course, the weather. The return is therefore different for each installation and cannot be predicted exactly. On average, the payback time of standard solar panels is 6 years. With the knowledge that an installation can easily last 25 years, it’s easy to see that PV panels pay for themselves and even yield a considerable return.

PV panels can be a valuable addition to any building or construction, that much is clear. Even with standard panels, every installation is unique, as they are different for each building.
