Expert Solar Installations for Businesses
Installing solar PV systems, solar batteries and EV charging solutions for a range of commercial settings, we boost the long-term profitability for businesses by reducing their energy costs. Whether you want to invest in sustainable solutions for your business, or access them without any upfront costs through a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), Solar4Business has got you covered.
Take control of your energy expenditure with a commercial solar installation. We design, supply, and install bespoke solar PV and battery storage solutions that reduce your operating costs, secure your business against volatile energy prices, and demonstrate a powerful commitment to sustainability.
Through our fully-funded Power Purchase Agreements (PPA), your business can benefit from clean, cheaper electricity with no capital outlay. We handle the installation, maintenance, and management of the system. You simply purchase the solar energy generated at a fixed, lower rate than your current supplier, delivering immediate savings to your business.
We designed and installed a bespoke 70 kWp system for a major logistics client. The system is now offsetting over 60% of their daytime energy usage, drastically cutting operational costs and protecting them from future price rises.
Choosing the right solar partner is a critical business decision. We combine deep industry expertise with an unwavering commitment to value, ensuring your transition to clean energy is seamless, strategic, and delivers the maximum possible return on your investment.

Yes, one of the options available for commercial solar panels is a solar power purchase agreement. Under such an agreement there is no upfront investment needed and installation and set up is handled by us – you only pay for the power at a pre-agreed fixed rate which is guaranteed to be lower than the rates with your current electricity provider. Maintenance and monitoring is managed by us so you can benefit without any of the hassle.
Different sized systems will take differing amounts of time. Once you have signed the contract, we will advise of the approximated time to complete the job, however we aim to do all our works within the day.
We do not buy the energy back from you if there is excess. We will look to optimise the system size, to ensure there is no wasted energy being transferred back to your supplier.
Our systems come with comprehensive warranties. Typically, solar panels have a 25-year performance warranty, and inverters (the component that converts solar energy) have a 5-10 year manufacturer’s warranty. We also provide a warranty on our installation workmanship. Opt for a PPA and all maintenance issues are handled by us.
While some past schemes have closed, businesses can still benefit from significant capital allowances, allowing you to deduct a large portion of the installation cost from your pre-tax profits. For EV charging, the Workplace Charging Scheme (WCS) is available, which provides a voucher of up to £350 per charging socket.
If you move premises or sell your business, it is possible with our approval to transfer the PPA to the new owner or tenant who would take over the contract. We would have to approve the new owner/tenant and be satisfied that they have the financial capability to make the PPA payments.
If the new owner does not want to take over the PPA, or the agreement is making any potential property sale difficult, you could buy the system outright, in which case the solar array becomes an asset and part of any property sale.
Installing solar panels offers several benefits including:
Reduced electricity bills: Solar panels generate clean, renewable energy from the sun, which can significantly lower your electricity costs.
Environmentally friendly: Solar energy is a sustainable and green source of power that helps reduce carbon emissions and reliance on fossil fuels.
Energy independence: By generating your own electricity, you become less dependent on the grid, giving you more control over your energy consumption.
Financial incentives: Many incentives including tax breaks which can further enhance the financial benefits of solar installation.
Increased property value: Solar panels can increase the value of your business premises, making it more attractive to potential buyers.
