We check installer credentials before an introduction

Before your enquiry is introduced, we check the selected company’s relevant credentials. Schemes vary by company and project, so you should also ask the installer to confirm its current certificate numbers.

MCS

Microgeneration Certification Scheme

The UK's recognised quality scheme for small-scale renewables. We check the selected installer's current MCS credentials.

TrustMark

Government Endorsed Quality

A UK Government-endorsed quality scheme that some suitably registered installation businesses may also hold.

RECC

Renewable Energy Consumer Code

A consumer code relevant to many renewable-energy providers. Membership should be checked for the selected company.

NAPIT

Accreditation schemes are operated independently of Commercial Solar Quotes. Your installer will be happy to provide their certificate numbers on request.

Commercial solar decisions need commercial thinking

A suitable system depends on your roof, electricity usage, operating hours and plans for the building. Your matched installer can assess the details and explain the options clearly.

✓ Reduce exposure to rising electricity prices

✓ Use more of the energy generated on your own site

✓ Support sustainability and carbon-reduction goals

✓ Explore funding, tax relief and payback with an installer

Plan ahead for changing commercial EPC standards

The government is proposing a higher EPC B standard from 2031 for privately rented commercial buildings over 1,000 square metres in England and Wales, where improvements are cost-effective. The earlier interim EPC C milestone is no longer being taken forward.

Solar may contribute to a building’s energy performance while helping reduce purchased electricity, but the effect on an EPC depends on the property and assessment. A qualified installer or energy assessor can explain what is realistic for your building.

This remains a government proposal and requires legislation. Requirements, exemptions and timescales may change; obtain current professional advice before making investment decisions.

Frequently asked questions

Is this actually free?+

Yes. Requesting a quote costs nothing and doesn't commit you to anything. You'll be contacted by an installer to discuss your options, and what you do after that is entirely up to you.

How many installers will contact me?+

One. We match your enquiry with a single vetted commercial solar installer rather than passing your details to a long list of companies.

Can I claim tax relief on a commercial solar installation?+

Commercial solar installations can often qualify for capital allowances against your business's taxable profits, though the specifics depend on your business structure and circumstances. Your installer or accountant will be able to confirm what applies to you.

Will solar improve my EPC rating?+

Solar can help improve a commercial building's energy performance, but the effect on its EPC rating depends on the property and assessment. Ask the installer or an accredited assessor what is likely to apply to your building.

Do I need planning permission?+

Most commercial rooftop solar installations fall under permitted development rights in the UK, though this can vary by site and local authority. Your installer will confirm what, if anything, is needed for your property.

Is my building suitable for commercial solar?+

Many warehouses, factories, offices, farms and retail buildings can be suitable. Roof condition, available space, shading, electricity usage and your plans for the property all matter. The installer can assess these points and explain the practical options.

How long does it take to receive a quote?+

We aim to arrange an initial callback within 24 hours. A detailed proposal may take longer because the installer may need electricity bills, site information or a survey before confirming system size, savings and cost.

What happens to my information?+

Your enquiry details are shared with the installer we match you with, so they can prepare your quote and contact you. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
