Cambridgeshire businesses are reaping the benefits of solar panel energy in their operations. The move from finite energy to solar power simultaneously supports conservation of the environment, whilst offering substantial financial benefits. By lending a rooftop or unused land to solar panels, businesses can decrease their reliance on traditional electricity by 25% to 35%. Solar energy promotes long-term financial security for companies, making solar power an affordable and efficient choice for Cambridgeshire’s commercial sector.
Solar energy uplifts Cambridgeshire’s economy through low and secure energy costs, untampered by the usual market fluctuations from conventional energy sources. Cambridgeshire businesses can cut their expenses significantly, improving their financial planning and business strategy.
Cambridgeshire’s installation of solar energy has proven a wise financial move. Though an initial cost is required, business are expected to witness returns within up to five years by selling excess energy back to the grid.
Cambridgeshire’s dedication to solar energy is a major move towards cutting out fossil fuel consumption and choosing cleaner energy. This swap not only supports the local environment, but also establishes Cambridgeshire as a leader in sustainability efforts. By choosing a renewable energy source, companies can lower their carbon footprints, creating a positive environmental impact.

If you are considering solar installations with BeBa Energy, we work closely with architects, builders, and industry experts to ensure your project’s success. We offer tailored solar strategies for businesses, agricultural projects, and corporate properties in Cambridgeshire.
Cambridgeshire businesses considering installing a commercial solar system will find there are three principal financial options available.
Firstly, the Direct Purchase model allows businesses to own the system outright, with the investment gradually recouped through savings on electricity bills and profits from selling excess energy to the grid.
Next, the solar Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) involves a third party owning and maintaining the system, while your business purchases the produced electricity at a cost approximately 20% lower than usual market rates.
Lastly, Asset Finance provides a way to fund the purchase through loans against the solar panels, with repayment periods typically ranging from 5 to 10 years. This financing option can ease the burden on cash flow, as the savings from energy costs contribute to repaying the loan.
Solar panels use photovoltaic (PV) cells to convert sunlight into electricity. When the sun shines onto the PV cells, it dislodges electrons, generating a flow of direct current (DC) electricity. This current flows into an inverter converting it into alternating current (AC) which is useable by homes and businesses.
The entire process takes about 40-52 weeks. It begins with a preliminary proposal to ensure the PV system aligns with business goals. Next, an application is submitted to the grid for connection approval. Several surveys assess the suitability of the solar array for the proposed roof or ground. After analysis, a formal proposal with final costs is provided to the client. Once agreed upon, planning permissions are submitted. Finally, after these permissions are granted, the project delivery occurs.
Benefits include reducing electricity bills, reducing carbon emissions and footprint, achieving net zero goals and increasing property values.
Before any solar PV system is installed, a full site and technical survey will be carried out whereby a third party structural survey will assess the structural integrity of the building. The outcome of the surveyors findings will dictate whether or not the building is suitable for solar PV.
There are several factors that need to be considered:
Energy usage: If your energy consumption is high, solar panels can offset or cover a portion of these electricity bills.
Roof/ground condition and location: to maximise the efficiency, it is important to have an area with minimal shading and a south or east-west roof for the panels. It is important that the roof is also in good condition or remedial works will need to be carried out beforehand.
Fun fact, if your roof is a low pitch, some North facing roofs may even be suitable for solar, particularly on sites that have large energy demands.
Yes definitely. If you are looking at expanding your solar array, please get in touch with a member of the BeBa team who will assist in working out whether or not you would benefit from an additional solar PV system.
Yes, there are various national and regional grants available for solar. Please check with your local authority or on the government website to identify whether you could be eligible.
