ContactSolar PV, ground-mount arrays and battery storage for working farms, agricultural buildings and processing facilities.
Portal frame barns, grain stores, dairy units and machinery sheds offer large unobstructed roof spans well-suited to commercial-scale PV. Roof-mount avoids land use and planning complexity. MCS certified systems from 50 kWp on a single span to 500 kWp+ across multiple buildings.

Field and paddock installations where roof area is limited, poorly orientated or structurally constrained. Ground-mount allows optimal orientation and tilt independent of building geometry. Agri-voltaic configurations maintain grazing or crop production beneath arrays.

Array sized to match daytime operational load. Generation directly offsets grid import during peak consumption periods — dairy milking, refrigeration, grain drying and irrigation pumping. Smart export where surplus is available.
Store surplus solar generation for use outside daylight hours. Battery scheduling follows the farm’s operational load, helping cover early milking, refrigeration and evening demand.
System design balances on-site consumption and surplus generation for export, taking account of the available grid connection and export arrangements.
Coordinate solar, battery storage and existing standby generation around the site’s operational requirements, with controls designed for the agreed backup loads.
Barns, grain stores and agricultural buildings can offer extensive roof space. Planning and structural requirements are reviewed as part of the site assessment.
Dairy, refrigeration, processing, irrigation and other daytime operations can use solar generation directly on site.
On-site generation can reduce imported electricity. Yield and financial modelling use your consumption data to assess the potential return.
Suitable fields and paddocks offer options where roof space is constrained, including configurations that retain grazing or crop production.
The assessment reviews your connection, available capacity and any DNO requirements before the system is specified.
Roof and land survey, structural assessment, grid connection review, consumption data analysis and operational load profiling.
Array sizing, battery specification, yield modelling and 25-year financial projection with SEG income and tariff sensitivity analysis.
Permitted development confirmation or full planning support. DNO application and G99/G100 management where export is included.
Phased installation programme minimising disruption to farm operations. MCS-certified installation and commissioning.
Live generation monitoring, yield vs modelled review, battery scheduling and SEG export reporting.
Every agricultural site is different — roof orientation, structural condition, operational load pattern and grid capacity all vary. A site assessment gives you a clear picture of what's achievable and what it returns before you commit to anything.
