5 REASONS TO RETROFIT YOUR UK COMMERCIAL BUILDING WITH SOLAR ENERGY

 This article will examine the five top reasons why now is the time to retrofit a commercial building with solar panels, and what your company risks by waiting longer.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF RETROFITTING A COMMERCIAL BUILDING WITH SOLAR?

The Benefits Of Retrofitting A Commercial Building With Solar

Retrofitting means adding, typically, solar or renewable technology, to an existing building. The critical importance of retrofitting industrial and commercial buildings is increasing as the UK adapts to green technology and gets in line to meet net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.

Retrofitting solar panels involves installing solar panels onto existing buildings instead of incorporating them into building designs from scratch. Solar panels collect and convert sunlight into electricity, which can be used to power homes, offices, and other buildings. The installation process typically involves adding solar panels to the roof and connecting them to an inverter that converts the DC energy produced by the panels to AC energy for use in the building.

Retrofitting solar panels reduces electricity costs, increases property value, lowers the carbon footprint, and works towards net-zero goals. This technology is also a solution to the frustration felt by the UK business, commercial building management and the construction industry regarding capacity, connection restrictions and rising energy costs. Retrofitting with solar panels coupled with leveraging SNRG’s SmartGrid technology, greatly reduces the demand on the national grid. Additionally, retrofitting solar panels modernises buildings and makes them more sustainable and energy efficient.

5 REASONS TO RETROFIT A COMMERCIAL BUILDING WITH SOLAR PANELS

Let’s review the five reasons that prove retrofitting a commercial building with solar panels is the best investment for a sustainable future.

1. DEPENDABLE & RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES

Traditional commercial or industrial structures were not built for sustainability, and the process of building new properties can often cause unnecessary damage to land and a significant drain on natural resources. Performing the technical intrusion of a SNRG retrofitting creates dependable and sustainable spaces for organisations to thrive, while moving away from fossil fuel dependency. Regardless of misconceptions, the UK is a reliable location for using solar energy panels, and SNRG is ready to design a unique SmartGrid retrofitting solution for your industrial or commercial premises.

2. ANNUAL ENERGY SAVINGS

On average, SNRG continues to save industrial and commercial properties 15-20% in annual energy savings. With a SNRG customisable retrofit, properties minimise carbon emissions and upfront costs, while maximising the amount of technology and energy savings.

3. LOW UPFRONT COSTS, REPAIRS & MAINTENANCE

When you work with SNRG, on average it is a 15-20 year agreement. Generally, these agreements can be fully funded from day one, meaning upfront saving on CAPEX and be well placed to benefit from extensive savings. During the contract, SNRG completes all installation, maintenance, and repairs. This is one less thing to worry about while running an efficient and eco-conscious commercial or industrial space.

4. ACHIEVE CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY & NET ZERO TARGETS

Creating an ESG strategy, pursuing EPC rating compliance and other corporate initiatives to contribute towards a greener business model can inspire employees and stakeholders, but often lacks communication or public awareness. Choosing to complete a retrofit installation with a SNRG SmartGrid sends a loud message of your investment to meet corporate sustainability goals. With the SNRG retrofit, your industrial or commercial property can be optimised with visual solar panels and other green technology systems.

5. REDUCE DEMAND ON THE NATIONAL GRID

Heating industrial and commercial properties in the UK accounts for nearly 25% of all UK greenhouse gas emissions. Seize the opportunity to reduce your demand with a fully funded solution, and book a SNRG consultation to see your property’s sustainability potential first-hand.
