The installation
Solar4Business designed and installed the rooftop system, and the site appears in its published case studies.
The funding route
The case study records a fully funded PPA with £0 upfront, which suits a site with steady daytime demand and no appetite for tying up capital.
Project details are taken from Solar4Business's published case study. Your proposal will reflect your own roof, half-hourly electricity use and funding route, so another installation's size or performance is not a forecast for your premises.
