Solar Energy for Schools, Colleges & Universities
There are many benefits to installing commercial solar panels for schools, colleges and universities. One of the main advantages is the significant financial savings. Once installed, the school or university in question will soon see notable savings on electricity bills, not to mention other essentials such as heating and hot water.
Solar panels within the Education Sector can also help to reduce the carbon footprint and greenhouse gases emitted by schools, colleges and universities. As well as the benefit of saving money on energy costs, educational institutes can remain in control of their energy usage and designate funds to improve facilities and the overall experience for students.
Installing solar panels in a school, college or university will also be a visible testament to your commitment to cleaner energy. Leading by example will help students and their families to take notice of renewable solar energy and the many benefits it has.

Site Visit & Survey
Having an initial meeting will allow us to gather the necessary information on how the school, college, or university uses energy and what they seek to achieve.
Before the installation process can start, we first need to visit the intended site to get a clear idea of any special requirements or environmental factors that will need to be considered. We will need to consider everything from the physical space available to the property’s location in relation to the sun when it comes to the system design.
Once both parties are agreed on the price and design in principle, we can then conduct a full site survey. We will also take care of any necessary permissions before producing a project plan and finally making a start on the installation itself.
Installation
When it’s time to commence installing a school, college or university solar panel system, the first step is to fix the mounts that will support the solar panels. We can use roof ground mounts or flush mounts depending on the specific requirements and specifications of the individual property.
Solar panel systems are best installed in a south facing direction to ensure optimal solar energy intake, but east and west facing systems can also be acceptable. Regardless of scale, we will ensure the installation process is as smooth as possible with minimal disruption to daily operations.
Battery Storage
If battery storage has been selected for the solar panel system, we will also safely connect them onsite. With multiple buildings and facilities requiring constant power, battery storage can be an ideal addition to solar panel systems for schools, colleges and universities.
The cost of wholesale gas is continually rising and affects the direct cost of electricity. Battery storage can be an attractive alternative for schools, colleges and universities. Opting for battery storage can be more cost effective than selling excess energy back to the grid for SEG payment, allowing for complete energy control.
