Solar Panels for Public & Community
Save on electricity costs and improve your sustainability credentials with solar panels.
Do you manage a mixed-use building? Perhaps the committee of your golf club, religious building or community centre is hoping to improve the ESG rating. Solar panels can improve your energy independence, and multiple organisations can benefit from electricity bill savings.
Reduced energy bills across multiple organisations
Supported by government funding or grants, you can reduce your energy bills, at little cost to you, by installing solar panels. With many organisations operating from the same space, cost savings from energy bills can benefit a variety of community settings or public spaces.
As well as cost savings, solar panels can also help to improve your ESG performance, showcasing your commitment to sustainability.
How it works
We will support you through the whole process from your initial enquiry to funding applications and projected ROI, so you can see your projected savings before committing. When you purchase solar panels from LMF, we’ll take you through the following process:
Tailored design
We design a system to suit your building.
Installation & setup
Minimal disruption and fully certified engineers.
Ongoing support
Maintenance, monitoring, & aftercare.
When can you expect to see ROI?
With committees often shaping decisions for building changes and upgrades, it may take some time from your initial enquiry to installing your solar panels. You may even be entitled to government grants or funding to help cover the cost of your solar panels.
Once they have been installed, you can expect to see payback in as little as 3-6 years. For your peace of mind, we would never recommend installing solar panels if you won’t see an ROI within the first few years.
The benefits of commercial solar panels for public and community settings
Public and community spaces often have mixed uses, so multiple organisations can benefit from the cost savings that come from reduced energy bills. Investing in solar can help contribute towards national climate targets, and the money saved on bills can be reinvested into essential facilities and services. You can also benefit from:
-
Improved energy independence
-
Cheaper electricity bills
-
Meeting sustainability goals
-
Cost-effective and environmentally friendly
-
Long-term energy savings
Commercial solar batteries
Solar battery storage complements solar panel systems and can be installed alongside both new and existing systems. Store any excess energy you generate on a lower tariff and use it when you need it most.
Financing your solar panels
Switching to solar can be a significant upfront investment, but it can lead to significant savings in the long run. Whether you choose to purchase your solar panels outright or look for grants and incentives, there are plenty of ways to finance your solar panels:
-
Full payment
-
Finance plans
-
Government/local authority funding
-
UK Shared Prosperity Fund
