Why should manufacturers and factories install solar panels? 

Installing solar panels can deliver significant operational, financial and environmental benefits: 

Reduce the cost and strain of increased electrification

Trends such as reductions in fossil energy usage and rising automation are leading to increased electricity demand in manufacturing. On-site renewable generation such as commercial solar panels can minimise the impact on operational costs. 

Combat energy insecurity

As an energy intensive sector, it’s no surprise that 91% of manufacturers surveyed in research by Mitsubishi were concerned about energy price security. Generating solar power reduces your business’s exposure to volatile energy prices, providing more certainty about ongoing costs. 

Meet more stringent ESG requirements

70% of manufacturers say they’re asked to report on carbon emissions as part of tendering requirements. Commercial solar panel installations bring down Scope 1 and 2 emissions, making your business a more appealing supply chain partner.
