Expert support for the entire project lifecycle.
Ready to begin your solar journey?
Are you looking to reduce your energy costs, achieve energy independence and meet your decarbonisation and sustainability goals?
Commercial solar panel systems can deliver all of these benefits and more when they’re implemented correctly.
However, successful implementation of solar PV systems requires a clear step-by-step approach from the initial feasibility and assessment stage, through the financial analysis and design stage, to installation, commissioning and ongoing monitoring and maintenance.
In addition, you need to address several key elements to guarantee your solar PV system is efficient, reliable and delivers value back to your organisation.
You can find out how our consulting and finance expertise can help to ensure a smooth, cost effective delivery, by following the links below:
Key considerations to help deliver success
- How can you build a strong business case and identify the right funding model?
- What is the best solar solution to meet your organisation’s specific needs, considering your space constraints, aesthetic concerns and regulatory compliance?
- Will your solution require additional infrastructure such as new or upgraded grid connections and energy storage solutions?
- What are the ongoing maintenance and monitoring requirements to manage repairs, performance efficiency and extend the asset lifespan?
- How can you make sure you have access to the right skills at the right time to support each stage of the project lifecycle?
