Make a return on your roof with commercial solar solutions designed for your business
Power your business with clean, low cost energy.
Love Solar delivers a comprehensive range of advanced commercial and agricultural solar solutions, tailored to the unique demands of your organisation. With proven expertise across Overclad, In Roof, On Roof and Ground Mount systems, we are the trusted solar partner for businesses across Cumbria and the North-West. As energy costs rise and sustainability becomes a strategic priority, solar offers a reliable, future proof investment for businesses with high power demands contributing to environmental sustainability.
A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) offers a simple, low-risk way to fund your solar installation with no upfront capital cost. Through a PPA, a third-party funder designs, installs, owns and maintains the solar system on your building, while you purchase the clean electricity it generates at a fixed rate – typically lower than your existing energy tariff.
This approach allows commercial and industrial sites to reduce energy costs, cut carbon emissions and improve sustainability credentials from day one. At the end of the agreement, ownership of the Solfit over clad system can transfer to you, delivering long-term value from a high-quality, roof-integrated solar solution.
Let’s take, for example, a Cumbria based business, with a south-facing flat roof-mounted system, some shading from surrounding trees, annual consumption 126,311kWh/year, 3phase electrical supply. You could expect…

This example comprises:
380 solar PV modules – Jinko 445W to collect sunlight and turn it into DC electricity.
2x Solis 80kW inverters, to convert the DC electricity into mains (AC) electricity.
No battery storage system (heavy daytime power use).
Love Solar include all the isolators, wiring and meters needed to connect the system safely to your electrical system. Your system will be installed and certified by our trained installation team.
Benefits of including battery storage in your system
On sunny days, when your solar panels generate more power that spare energy can be stored and used at night.
This means you get the most from the electricity you generate on-site, rather than exporting it to the grid, since importing electricity typically costs more than you’d earn from exporting it.
