Commercial Solar Panels in Studley
Free site survey, MCS-certified installation, and G99 DNO applications handled in-house for businesses across Studley and Warwickshire.
If your business, school, or care home in Studley is carrying a heavy electricity bill, a commercial solar PV system is one of the most direct ways to cut it. We design and install large-scale solar arrays for SMEs, commercial landlords, and public-sector organisations across Warwickshire. Whether your building has a pitched roof, a flat industrial roof, or open ground, we survey it properly before anything else.
We are MCS-certified and NAPIT-registered, so every install meets the standards your DNO, insurer, and accountant expect. We handle the G99 application in-house for systems over 30 kWp, which removes a significant administrative burden from your facilities team. We are based in Beoley, Redditch, roughly ten minutes up the A435 from Studley, which means we can be on-site quickly and without a call-out premium stacked into the quote.
What's included
Every Studley job includes.
A full commercial site survey covering roof structure, orientation, shading, existing switchgear, and DNO connection point, agreed with your facilities contact before any design work begins.
A written, itemised quote with no hidden costs, broken down by materials, labour, scaffolding, and grid-connection work so you can submit it for board or budget approval with confidence.
System design optimised for your building's actual load profile, not a generic template, so the array size and inverter specification match what your business genuinely consumes across the working day.
In-house G99 DNO application management for systems over 30 kWp, including liaison with your distribution network operator from submission through to approval, so you do not have to chase it yourself.
Full MCS-certified installation by our own employed engineers, with IWA insurance-backed guarantee on workmanship, commissioning documentation, and handover pack for your accountant and insurer.
Post-installation monitoring setup and a walkthrough with your team so you can track generation, identify any performance issues early, and use live data in your ESG or net-zero reporting.
Local knowledge
Commercial Solar in Studley.
Studley sits just south of Redditch on the A435 corridor, and its commercial and light-industrial profile is a good fit for rooftop solar. The village has a mix of standalone business premises, small industrial units, and agricultural holdings on its edges, many with generous south- or southwest-facing roof pitches that rarely get surveyed for solar potential. Modern semi-detached and detached stock dominates the residential side, but the commercial opportunities here are often on single-storey buildings with large flat or shallow-pitched roofs, exactly the geometry that suits a high-density panel layout.
Flat-roof commercial buildings in and around Studley typically suit ballasted mounting systems, which avoid roof penetrations entirely and are well suited to the membrane and built-up felt roofs common on 1980s and 1990s commercial builds in this part of Warwickshire. Pitched agricultural and workshop roofs often carry fibre-cement or metal profile sheeting, both of which are compatible with commercial clamp-fix mounting. In either case, a structural check is part of our survey process before any design is finalised, because load-bearing capacity matters more on a commercial roof than on a domestic one.
Studley falls within Western Power Distribution's (now National Grid Electricity Distribution's) network area. G99 applications for systems above 30 kWp require formal DNO approval before commissioning, and turnaround times vary. Handling this in-house means we know what the network operator expects and can submit clean documentation first time, reducing the risk of delays that push your commissioning date back. Businesses close to the Redditch boundary may also benefit from our strong working relationship with local grid connection teams built up over multiple installs in this part of Worcestershire and Warwickshire.
Why Studley
Why Studley chooses us.
Studley businesses book us because we are genuinely local, fully certified, and handle the paperwork that most installers leave to you.
We are MCS-certified for commercial solar and NAPIT-registered for the associated electrical work, so a single contractor covers both disciplines. You do not need a separate sparks to sign off the distribution board works.
We manage G99 DNO applications in-house for systems over 30 kWp. That means one point of contact from survey to grid connection, not a handoff to a third party who has never seen your site.
Every quote is free, written, and itemised with no hidden costs. We break out materials, labour, scaffolding, and connection fees separately so your finance team or board can see exactly what they are approving.
We carry full public-liability and employer's liability insurance and provide an IWA insurance-backed guarantee on workmanship. Your building, your staff, and your investment are all covered before we start.
We are based in Beoley, ten minutes up the A435. Same-week survey scheduling is realistic for Studley sites, and we can return quickly if a post-commissioning question comes up without charging a travel premium.
How it works
From enquiry to job done.
- 01Postcode check
Tell us your postcode and building type and we confirm within the hour that Studley is within our coverage area. It always is, given we are ten minutes away, but this step also lets us flag any immediate site constraints before we book travel.
- 02Free site survey
One of our engineers visits your premises, walks the roof with you or your facilities manager, checks orientation and shading, assesses switchgear and metering, and photographs the site. No charge, no obligation, and no hard sell at the end of it.
- 03Quote within 48 hours
We send a written, itemised quote covering panels, inverters, mounting, electrical works, scaffolding, G99 application fee if applicable, and commissioning. Every line is separated so you can see what you are paying for and submit it for internal approval.
- 04Date booked
Once you approve the quote, we agree an installation date that fits your operational calendar. For most Studley commercial sites we can schedule within a few weeks. We confirm the programme in writing and keep you updated if anything changes.
- 05Job done, photos sent
Our engineers complete the install, commission the system, complete all MCS and DNO documentation, and hand over a full commissioning pack. We take before-and-after photos throughout and walk your team through the monitoring platform before we leave site.

Often booked together
Pairs well with.
A battery system alongside your commercial array lets you store generation that falls outside your operating hours, increasing self-consumption and reducing what you draw from the grid during peak-rate periods. We design both together from the outset.
Pairing commercial solar with workplace EV chargers lets you use your own generated electricity to charge a fleet or staff vehicles, compounding the return from the array without drawing additional power from the grid.
Commercial solar installations are a capital asset. A CCTV system covering roof access points and plant areas is a straightforward add-on while our engineers are already on-site, and most business insurers view it favourably.
Worth knowing
Before you book in Studley.
Flat-roof systems on older commercial buildings in Studley need a structural survey before design sign-off. Membrane condition, drainage falls, and load tolerance all affect whether a ballasted or penetrating mount is appropriate, and your building insurer may require a report before cover is extended to the new installation.
If your business exports surplus generation to the grid under the Smart Export Guarantee, you will need a compatible export meter and your DNO's written consent. For systems over 30 kWp this consent comes via the G99 process, which can take several weeks; factor this into your project timeline.
Planning permission is not normally required for rooftop commercial solar under permitted development, but there are exceptions for listed buildings, buildings within conservation areas, and some agricultural structures. Studley has a mix of older and modern commercial stock; we flag any planning risk at survey stage before you commit.
FAQs
Studley questions.
How much does a commercial solar installation cost in Studley?
Every commercial solar system is sized and priced to the specific building, roof area, load profile, and grid-connection requirement. We do not publish price lists because a quote based on your actual site will always be more accurate and more useful than a ballpark figure. Our site survey is free and generates a written, itemised quote with no hidden costs, so you know exactly what you are committing to before any work starts. Call 01527 337155 or use our contact form to book a same-week survey.
Do I need planning permission for commercial solar panels in Studley?
Most rooftop commercial solar installations in Studley fall within permitted development rights and do not require a formal planning application. Exceptions include listed buildings, buildings within a designated conservation area, and some agricultural structures subject to specific conditions. Ground-mounted systems above a certain capacity may also require consent. We assess planning risk as part of the free site survey and flag anything that needs a permitted-development check or a prior-approval application before you commit to the project.
What is a G99 application and do I need one?
G99 is the engineering standard and application process that governs how larger generation systems connect to the public electricity network. Any commercial solar system with an export capacity above 30 kWp requires a formal G99 application to your distribution network operator before commissioning. We handle the G99 process in-house, including preparing the technical documentation, submitting to the DNO, and managing any queries they raise. This avoids delays caused by incomplete submissions and keeps the project on a predictable timeline.
How long does a commercial solar installation take from survey to switch-on?
The survey-to-commissioning timeline depends on system size, roof complexity, scaffolding requirements, and DNO approval time. For straightforward flat-roof or pitched-roof systems below 30 kWp the process from survey to live commissioning can move relatively quickly once quotes are approved. For larger systems requiring G99 approval, DNO turnaround adds several weeks that are outside our control. We give you a realistic programme at quote stage and flag any dependencies so your facilities or finance team can plan around them.
Can commercial solar support our ESG or net-zero reporting?
Yes. A properly commissioned MCS-certified system generates metered production data that can be fed directly into your ESG reporting framework. We set up monitoring as part of the commissioning handover and walk your team through the dashboard so you can record generation figures, estimated carbon offset, and self-consumption rates. The MCS commissioning certificate and system documentation also provide the audit trail that sustainability reports and some procurement frameworks require. If you are working to a specific reporting standard, tell us at survey stage and we will tailor the handover pack accordingly.
Will commercial solar work on a flat roof in Studley?
Flat roofs are well suited to commercial solar, and many of the industrial and commercial buildings around Studley have exactly this roof type. Ballasted mounting frames allow panels to be angled optimally without penetrating the roof membrane, which protects your waterproofing warranty. We carry out a structural assessment during the site survey to confirm the roof can carry the load and check membrane condition. If the roof needs remedial work first, we flag it before you commit so there are no surprises during installation.
Our commitment
We take on a controlled number of commercial installs each month. That is not a marketing line; it is how we ensure every G99 application is submitted accurately, every roof survey gets proper time, and every commissioning handover is thorough. Rushing a commercial solar install creates problems that are expensive to fix. We would rather give your project the attention it needs than fill a calendar.
