Commercial solar in 2026 is no longer an environmental statement — it's straightforward business arithmetic. A well-sized commercial PV array on a Yorkshire industrial roof returns 25%+ over its lifetime, pays back in 2–4 years after capital allowances, and locks in a known electricity cost for 25-plus years against a wholesale grid market that has tripled in volatility since 2021. The case for installing solar on your factory, warehouse, office or agricultural building is a CFO conversation, not a sustainability one.
What's changed since the early 2010s is the bankability of the numbers. We deliver every commercial quote with a 3D drone-modelled roof survey, PVsyst-grade yield simulation and a 25-year ROI projection a high-street lender will underwrite against. There's no hand-waving — your projected savings, your projected export income, your projected inverter-replacement cost in year 12 are all in the model. If you finance via lease-purchase or a Power Purchase Agreement, the same model proves cashflow-neutral or cashflow-positive from year 1.
Future Power Team is one of Yorkshire's most experienced EPC commercial installers. Since 2019 we've delivered factory, warehouse, agricultural, retail and public-sector installs across Leeds, Sheffield, Hull, York, Manchester and the Pennine corridor — every project designed, surveyed, installed, commissioned and supported by our own Yorkshire team. We carry the relationships with Northern Powergrid, the planning officers, the structural engineers, the half-hour-metering folk so that your operations team only sees the final connection date. Request a free site survey and we'll send a qualified engineer plus a drone — usually within 7 days.

Commercial solar pricing is roof-by-roof — system size, mounting type, structural reinforcement, SolarEdge vs string inverter, optional battery storage and DNO upgrade costs all move the number. The tiers below are indicative reference points for a clean industrial roof at standard pitch. Every real quote is delivered with a 3D drone survey, PVsyst-grade yield model and a 25-year ROI projection.
Roughly 120 panels — fits a typical office or small industrial unit. Save around £15,000 per year on electricity at current prices, payback inside 4 years (typically less after capital allowances).
EnquireRoughly 240 panels — sized for a medium warehouse or factory roof. Save around £30,000 per year, payback 2–3 years after capital-allowances tax relief. Most popular commercial system size.
EnquireEvery quote above 100 kWp is tailored — roof size, structural survey, DNO study, SolarEdge vs string-inverter selection, optional battery storage and EV-charging integration. Zero-CapEx PPA available for 500 kWp+.
EnquireIndicative pricing is based on a clean industrial roof, south-facing or east-west split, standard pitch, no structural reinforcement, single-phase or three-phase supply with no DNO infrastructure upgrade. All prices ex-VAT (most commercial solar is zero-rated VAT or VAT-recoverable). Capital allowances (Annual Investment Allowance / Full Expensing) typically reduce the net cost by ~20%.
We've delivered 900+ Yorkshire solar installs since 2019. The commercial side benefits from the same in-house team, same Yorkshire-supply-chain advantages and the same long-term relationships — applied to bigger roofs, bigger systems and bigger ROI models.
We're an Engineering, Procurement & Construction (EPC) commercial installer. Design, structural calculations, electrical engineering, scaffolding, panel mounting, DNO G99 paperwork and commissioning are all delivered by our Yorkshire team. No bouncing between sub-contractors when something needs to be solved. One quote, one warranty, one team.
Every commercial quote starts with a drone survey of your roof. We rebuild your site in 3D, simulate panel layout against shading and pitch in industry-standard PVsyst/Aurora software, and deliver a bankable-grade yield forecast a finance partner will lend against. No hand-waving — your ROI projection is verified maths.
Don't want to tie up working capital on a 25-year asset? We offer zero-CapEx Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) — a third-party owns the system, you buy the electricity at below grid rates with no upfront cost. Lease-purchase agreements can be modelled cashflow-neutral, with full ownership in 5–7 years. Read our funding guide for the full mechanics.
Commercial solar sits at the intersection of planning permission, DNO G99 approval, Class V permitted development, business rates re-assessment and (for 500 kW+ exporters) half-hourly metering. We carry every conversation — Council, Northern Powergrid, your electricity supplier — so your team only sees the final connection date.
The brief is always the same — turn an underused roof into an asset that pays for itself in 2–4 years and keeps paying for 25 more. The shape of the project varies by sector. Here's how solar maps onto the six commercial verticals we install across most often in Yorkshire.
Large, low-pitch industrial rooftops are the textbook commercial solar site — big surface area, heavy daytime load from machinery and lighting, and electricity bills that justify a 250 kWp+ system. Factories and warehouses regularly hit 60–90% self-consumption with a well-sized PV array.
See factories & warehouses →Agricultural buildings — barns, grain stores, dairy parlours, packing sheds — have the same large-roof profile as warehouses with daytime load profiles (irrigation, ventilation, refrigeration) that match solar generation. We also handle planning permission for ground-mounted arrays where roof space isn't viable.
See farms & agriculture →Office and retail rooftops typically support 30–80 kWp systems — enough to cover most daytime lighting, HVAC and IT load. Often the bigger win is ESG: a measurable Scope 2 carbon reduction that anchors your annual sustainability report and improves your standing with eco-conscious clients and investors.
Hospitality sites run 24/7 lighting, kitchens, laundry and HVAC. Solar offsets daytime load, battery storage handles evening peak, and modern hotels use the install as a guest-facing sustainability story. Many hospitality clients combine solar with smart export and EV chargers for guest parking.
Schools, GP surgeries, council buildings and other public-sector estates have access to UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF), Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme and regional carbon-reduction grants. We've helped multiple estates apply — happy to advise on which scheme fits.
See funding options →As businesses electrify vans, cars and forklifts, on-site solar combined with workplace EV chargers turns your roof into the energy source for your fleet. We design solar-plus-EV-charging systems that match daytime fleet-charging windows for maximum self-consumption.
A typical Yorkshire commercial install runs 4 to 10 weeks from initial site visit to first generated kWh. That includes the drone survey, structural sign-off, design iteration, DNO G99 application, scaffolding, panel mounting, inverter and metering install, commissioning and customer training. For sites that operate continuously — manufacturing lines, dairy parlours, 24/7 logistics — we phase the works around shift patterns so the only operational impact is a single scheduled grid changeover outside business hours.
Commercial solar in Yorkshire works well because the climate is more solar-favourable than commonly assumed: a south-facing, low-pitch roof at our latitude generates roughly 950 kWh per kWp per year — within 5% of the Lake District and well above the Scottish Borders. Combine that with the high daytime self-consumption profile of most commercial operations (machinery, lighting, refrigeration, HVAC run during generation hours), and the maths is consistently strong across the region.
We also offer residential solar for homes right next to your commercial premises — many of our commercial customers go on to install solar at home once they've seen the numbers stack up on their factory roof. Our team is happy to scope both, often using the same site visit.
We work across a full range of leading brand partners — picking what fits your home, your tariff and your roof. Same install standard whichever you choose.
