Manufacturing is a big user of electricity and margins are often tight. Solar is an obvious way to cut operational expenses. The single biggest barrier to adoption is often the cost of the solar installation. This disappears with Electron Green’s free solar programme.
Electron Green will specify, install, maintain and insure a rooftop solar system free of charge on your building.
You pay only for the solar electricity you use at a lower rate than grid power, with no changes to your utility contracts.
Your solar system is monitored remotely 24/7 and full maintenance from Electron Green is part of the service.
You have the option to buy the solar system from Electron Green at any point at a depreciated price.
We install high-quality solar panels and equipment, ensuring long-term, reliable performance.
Our expert solar team has a proven track record of delivering high-quality installations for global property leaders.
Respirex is a world-leading supplier of
personal protective solutions (PPE). This sector is a heavy energy user, and products can have significant environmental impacts across the lifecycle. The 200 solar panels installed at Respirex’s factory in Redhill, will instantly reduce grid consumption by approximately 25% and save more £500,000 over 25 years.
Electron Green has fully funded and designed a solar installation for each of Respirex’s 3 buildings at their sites in Redhill and Crawley, all together installing 355 panels. Each linked to a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), the systems aim to generate a combined 148,000 kWh of electricity annually. Respirex’s grid electricity use is expected to drop by an average of 24% across the 3 units, resulting in £15,200 savings in the first year and more than £700,000 over 25 years.
Solar PV (solar photovoltaics) is a way of generating electricity using energy from the sun. Modern solar panels produce electricity from daylight and do not require direct sunlight, although more electricity is generated on bright sunny days.
Yes it is. This includes any initial consultation, the solar panels, installation, and maintenance for 25 years. You’ll pay for only the solar electricity you use, at a price lower than your current utility cost.
Simply get in touch with us. There is no obligation to proceed beyond the information stage, but we would love to discuss solar with you.
No you don’t. Rooftop solar electricity is fed directly into your data centre and is used first before your building pulls from the grid for ‘top-up’ electricity. Any top-ups happen automatically. You don’t have to change utility provider and you don’t have to wait until your current utility contract comes to an end. Rooftop solar could supply up to 30% of your electricity needs.
Any solar electricity generated will be used by your data centre automatically. You don’t need to take any steps to make this happen.
This depends on the size of the system, and any local regulations. The whole process, however, can be swift and non-disruptive to business-as-usual.
There are four key steps:
This free rooftop solar solution is simple and includes: free solar designs and surveys, a free solar PV system for the roof, free installation, free insurance, free maintenance for the life of your contract and a low price for electricity.
You have the option to purchase the solar system from us at any time, with the price adjusted to reflect depreciation over the duration of your contract.
