TBE Solar :: Industrial Solar PV Panels & Systems

... for Factories, Industrial Units, Manufacturers and Warehousing

With big expanses of roof space, intensive machinery & huge energy bills, these are just a few of the reasons why solar panels and sustainable solutions make the perfect business partner for factories and manufacturers.

From small factories and industrial units through to big brand manufacturers, Solar PV and other sustainable solutions such as LED lighting could reap huge financial benefits for your business.

Recent Projects

The system that TBE Solar installed consisted of 804 x 505W Q-Cells panels with 4 x 100kW inverters. In May 2024, this system produced 45MWh which equates to around 1.5MWh of solar generation daily.

• Our model projects a 34% reduction in energy bills, this amounts to an estimated £66,916 of first year savings.
• 74% of all energy generated by the solar PV system is consumed by the sawmill, with 26% exported to the grid
• Over the lifetime of the system, the emissions saved equate to 15,087 trees planted or 1,680 long haul flights avoided
• Due to the energy savings provided, this system will pay for itself within 4 years.

These calculated estimates by our system designers were calculated using Open Solar software, install specifications and other data. Payback estimated by TBE Solar using those same specifications adjusted over the time period based on a 7% rate of inflation which is the average rate of increase of energy prices in the last 25 years.

Beesley and Fildes first came to TB Electrics in September 2022 to discuss the possibility of installing solar PV at their sawmills in Widnes. After a number of site visits and several system designs, an agreement was made and the contracts were signed. The expert TB Electrics engineers installed the system in March 2023.
In May 2023, the PV system, which consists of 600x tier-one 420W panels and 2x 110kW inverters generated just over 38MWh, which equates to an average daily yield of 1.22MWh. Some more key facts:
Our model projects a 30% reduction in energy bills, this amounts to estimated first year savings of £56,630 .
71% of all energy generated by the solar PV system is consumed by the sawmill, with 29% exported to the grid.
Over the lifetime of the system, the emissions saved equate to 9,378 trees planted or 1,044 long haul flights avoided.
Due to the energy savings provided, this system will pay for itself in 1 year, 9 months.

Rising Energy Costs, Energy Security & Profitability

Increasingly large business overheads are making energy consumption a growing source of concern, particularly within our unstable energy market and with utility prices rising year on year. As a result forward thinking manufacturers are looking closely at both what they pay for their energy and how they use it.

By installing sustainable solutions, businesses are able to considerably cut their overheads, improve business operations and increase their bottom line with up to 100% savings on their daytime electricity costs.

Generally speaking the higher the user of energy - the higher the savings and therefore the larger the benefits will be  - making the manufacturing sector the perfect case for sustainable solutions. Not only that there are also tax advantages to installing solar that could make it even more worthwhile for your business.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

Sustainability is becoming increasingly important within the supply chain - the UK government is putting pressure on companies to turn to sustainable solutions and therefore wholesalers & retailers are now considering green credentials when choosing their suppliers.

Installing sustainable solutions not only reduces business overheads but has the augmented benefits of increasing your green credentials and creating an effective PR tool.

By installing Solar PV it allows you to showcase your commitment to the environment and with COP26 on the horizon you may as well get in there now .... before the prices start to go up
