Solar PV Studies
Installing solar panels can be a great way of supplying 100% renewable electricity at low cost. Find out if it's the right move for your business.
Electricity prices remain high, and the potential payback from solar has never been more appealing. Find out from an independent advisor if it’s worth the investment.
Solar PV prices are the lowest they've ever been and are continuing to drop due to technology improvements and a manufacturing surplus.
If you've been considering solar, now's an ideal time to invest. Our solar PV feasibility studies assess the potential savings and economic feasibility of installing solar at your business so you can decide whether it's the right move.
How we can help
​​
-
Initial Consultation: We begin with an in-depth discussion about your business’s energy needs, current challenges, and long-term goals.
​
-
Site Assessment: We assess your premises, looking at various factors such as your site's current electricity usage profile, available roof space, and sunlight exposure, to determine the optimal coverage and orientation of solar array at your specified site.
​
-
Energy and Financial Modelling: Our experts will create a financial model to evaluate the costs, payback period, and return on investment for installing solar PV. We consider your site's current electricity rates, projected future electricity rates, the current and future cost of carbon and a capital cost estimate of solar PV supply and installation costs. We’ll also consider any relevant incentives or grants that can further reduce costs.
​
-
Feasibility Report: You’ll receive a detailed report outlining the findings of our study. Findings will include the optimal size of solar array, the project's overall capital cost, simple payback, net present value, yearly cashflow, and a recommendation on whether solar is a worthwhile investment for your business.
​
-
Structural Assessment (Optional): If you're unsure whether your roof can support solar, we can provide a quick and cost-effective structural assessment of your roof so you know exactly which parts have enough structural capacity.

Support for Next Steps: If our analysis shows solar is a good fit for your business, we can guide you through the project implementation process. If solar isn’t suitable, we can recommend alternative strategies to improve your energy efficiency.
