Solar and Battery Storage for Commercial Properties

Solar panels and battery storage provide businesses with a practical way to manage energy costs and reduce reliance on the grid. E Electrical installs commercial solar and battery systems designed to support operational demand, improve energy control, and reduce long-term running costs.

These systems are suited to a wide range of commercial and industrial properties.

Using Solar Energy to Reduce Business Energy Costs

Generating electricity on site allows businesses to offset imported grid power and reduce exposure to rising electricity prices. Solar panels convert daylight into usable electricity that can be consumed directly within the building.

Benefits for businesses include:
• Lower daytime electricity costs
• Reduced dependence on energy suppliers
• Improved predictability of energy spend
• On-site generation without fuel costs

Systems can be designed around operating hours and load profiles to maximise on-site use.

Improving Performance with Battery Storage

Battery storage allows surplus solar energy to be stored rather than exported. Stored energy can then be used during peak demand periods or outside daylight hours.

Battery systems help businesses by:
• Increasing self-consumption of solar energy
• Reducing peak grid demand
• Supporting continuity during high-load periods
• Improving overall system efficiency

Storage capacity is sized to suit energy usage and operational needs.

Sustainability and Corporate Responsibility

Installing solar and battery storage supports sustainability targets and energy-management strategies. Reducing grid electricity consumption lowers carbon emissions associated with business operations.

This can support:
• Environmental reporting requirements
• Corporate sustainability policies
• Long-term energy planning
• Reduced carbon footprint

Renewable energy systems provide measurable reductions in electricity use and emissions.

Integrating Solar with Other Building Systems

Commercial solar and battery systems can be designed to work alongside other electrical technologies. This includes integration with electric vehicle charge points, air source heat pumps, and existing electrical infrastructure.

Systems are configured to ensure compatibility, safe operation, and efficient energy distribution across the site.

Commercial Solar Installations by E Electrical

E Electrical designs and installs solar panels and battery storage systems for commercial properties across Plymouth, Devon and Cornwall. Each system is tailored to the building, usage profile, and future requirements.

Installations are carried out in line with current standards, with testing and certification provided where applicable.
