Commercial solar installation: sector specialisms

Key challenges: Energy intensive operations mean exposure to changing energy prices, resulting in high annual bills. Carbon reduction targets are driving an increased focus on sustainability throughout the supply chain.  

How solar installation can help: make the most of significant unused roof space. Install solar panels to reduce operational costs, cut carbon emissions and generate revenue from selling unused electricity back to Good Energy.  

Case study: Deceuninck 

Key challenges: Changing energy prices leave you exposed to unexpectedly high business energy bills. More and more consumers and supply chain partners prioritise brands taking action to lower carbon emissions. 

How solar installation can help: generate your own free, renewable electricity and reduce the amount you need to buy from the grid. Reduce carbon emissions and boost your green appeal.  

Case study: SEALIFE Aquariums 

Key challenges: From care homes needing to run specialist equipment 24/7, to NHS trusts targeting net zero carbon emissions by 2040, healthcare facilities stand to benefit from increasing their use of renewable electricity.  

How solar installation can help: As well as driving significant carbon emission reductions, installing solar panels and battery storage provides a reliable source of low cost electricity to bring down energy costs. 

Case study: Fernhill Care Home 

Key challenges: as an energy intensive industry, farms and agricultural businesses are vulnerable to energy price rises.  

How solar installation can help: become more self sufficient by generating your own energy, to use on site or to sell to an energy supplier. 

Case study: Abbey Farms 

Key challenges: many public sector organisations and local councils have set ambitious net zero targets. Changing energy costs are challenging for organisations already facing strict budgets. 

How solar installation can help: generating renewable electricity is a step beyond simply switching to a renewable energy provider. Solar panels on public sector buildings are a visible example of commitment to climate action.  

Case study: North Kesteven District Council 

Key challenges: schools, academies and universities are joining public sector organisations in their commitment to reducing carbon emissions. Changing energy costs are a challenge for organisations on tight budgets. 

How solar installation can help:  generating electricity with solar panels reduces carbon emissions and energy costs while providing a way to direct savings back into education.
