Get Started TodayFrequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about solar installations for farm buildings.
Can any farm building support solar panels?
Most farm buildings can support solar panels, but factors such as roof orientation, structural integrity, and shading need to be assessed. Our specialists will evaluate your buildings to determine the most suitable options. For buildings with structural limitations, we also offer ground-mounted solutions.
How long does a typical farm installation take?
The duration depends on the size and complexity of the installation, but most farm projects are completed within 1-3 weeks. We work closely with you to schedule installation around your farm operations to minimize disruption.
What maintenance is required for farm solar systems?
Solar panels require minimal maintenance, but agricultural environments may necessitate more frequent cleaning due to dust and debris. We recommend annual inspections and cleaning, and we offer maintenance packages specifically designed for farm installations.
Will solar panels affect my farm insurance?
Solar installations may affect your insurance policies. We provide all necessary documentation and certification for your insurers and can advise on how to update your policies. Our installations comply with all relevant UK standards and regulations.
How do I know if solar is right for my farm?
Every farm is unique, which is why we offer a comprehensive site assessment and energy analysis before making recommendations. Factors such as your current energy usage, available space, and budget all play a role in determining the suitability of solar for your farm.
