The site
Kingspan's Yorkshire site runs energy-intensive manufacturing under a large, unobstructed roof. Production runs through the working day, when rooftop panels generate, so a large share of the electricity is used on site rather than exported.
All commercial solar projects 
Kingspan
Rooftop solar for an industrial manufacturing site. The Kingspan project demonstrates how a substantial commercial roof can accommodate on-site generation alongside an operating business.

The installation
Solar4Business designed and installed the rooftop array, which appears in its published case study with the photographs shown here.
The funding route
Solar4Business's case study describes the project as fully funded through a power purchase agreement: no capital from Kingspan, with the electricity generated bought at an agreed rate.
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.
