Commercial Solar Upgrade Services.

Deciding whether you need to upgrade your solar system can be a big decision for commercial solar panel owners. At East Yorkshire Solar, we specialise in solar installation, upgrades and servicesTake a look at some of the solar panel upgrades we offer, and why you should consider upgrading your entire system.

Why Should I Upgrade My Existing Commercial Solar Panels?

Upgrading your existing commercial solar panels is a smart investment that maximises energy efficiency, improves reliability and extends the lifespan of your system. Modern technologies like power optimisers and micro-inverters enhance individual panel performance, ensuring optimal energy output even in less-than-ideal conditions. This means lower energy costs, fewer maintenance disruptions and greater sustainability credentials. By upgrading your solar panels, you will be future-proofing your energy infrastructure against faults and inefficiencies.

Which Commercial Sectors Can Upgrade Their Solar PV Systems?

There are a range of commercial sectors that make use of solar PV systems, and each of these sectors have their own individual reasons for needing to upgrade. Here are some of the commercial solar upgrades that East Yorkshire Solar can help with:  

  • Agriculture, Horticulture & Farming: Rural settings often face challenges such as shading from trees, pests nesting underneath panels, and their open setting often makes fluctuating weather conditions more impactful. This can limit solar output, so by integrating power optimisers or micro-inverters, your system ensures consistent performance. These upgrades help to lower energy costs for powering essential equipment, lighting and irrigation systems and upgrading also positions your agricultural business as a leader in sustainability, vital for accessing green grants and subsidies in the UK.  
  • Hotels & Hospitality: In the competitive hospitality industry, energy efficiency isn’t just a cost-saving measure, it can be a strong selling point for eco-conscious guests. Upgrading your solar panels ensures your system runs at peak efficiency, reducing electricity costs for lighting, heating, cooling and other essential services. Enhanced performance through technologies like SolarEdge also allows real-time monitoring, helping you track savings and system health.  
  • Schools & Education: For schools and educational institutions, upgrading solar panels offers long-term cost savings and educational opportunities. Advanced solar technology ensures reliable energy outputs for classrooms and IT equipment, all whilst lowering utility bills. Incorporating app-based monitoring tools also allows students to learn about renewable energy in a hands-on way, supporting STEM education.  
  • Warehouses & Factories: Upgrading your solar system in these areas ensures they deliver maximum output, even in challenging conditions such as roof shading or debris build-up. Technologies like micro-inverters minimise disruptions, ensuring one panel’s fault doesn’t affect the entire system, and this translates to reduced operational costs and improved energy independence, which is especially valuable for businesses managing large facilities in the UK. 
Enhance Your Commercial Solar Panel System with Power Optimisers & Micro-Inverters.

Are you looking to maximise the performance of your commercial solar panel system? Power optimisers and micro-inverters are leading technologies that can significantly boost energy efficiency. Designed to work on individual panels, these innovative solutions actively monitor and improve solar output, ensuring each panel operates at its peak potential.

Are Grants Available for Commercial Solar Panels?

While there are no dedicated grants specifically for the installation of commercial solar panels, businesses can still benefit financially through the Government-backed Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) scheme. This initiative allows energy companies to pay you for the surplus energy your system exports to the National Grid. Payment rates typically range from 1p/kWh to 15p/kWh, depending on your chosen energy supplier. Importantly, you are not required to use the same company that supplies your electricity, so shopping around for the most competitive rates can help you maximise your earnings. 

The Benefits of Solar for Yorkshire Businesses.

For Yorkshire-based businesses seeking sustainable and reliable energy solutions, upgrading your solar panels with power optimisers ensures that faults in one panel will not disrupt the output of the entire system. This leads to improved efficiency, reduced maintenance costs and a higher return on investment, all while supporting your business’s green energy goals. Embrace the next step in solar technology and keep your commercial solar system running at its best.
