What you get with SunField commercial
We focus on clear scope, predictable programme, and safe installation. You will receive a written proposal that explains system size, expected generation, and the assumptions behind the numbers. No inflated savings claims and no vague line items.
- Site survey with roof and electrical checks
- Output forecast and usage-matching analysis
- Monitoring set-up and handover training
If your site is primarily in Dublin, Wicklow, Meath, Kildare, or Louth, we can usually schedule a survey quickly. Nationwide projects are considered, with strongest coverage in Leinster.
Best fit sites
Warehouses & logistics
Large roof area and steady day-time demand makes solar panels a practical cost-control tool.
Farms & agri
Milking, refrigeration, and equipment loads often align well with generation hours.
Retail & hospitality
Day-time usage with predictable peaks can deliver reliable self-consumption.
Offices & schools
Strong overlap between working hours and solar output, plus visible sustainability benefits.
How we design commercial solar for predictable performance
For commercial projects, “best solar panels” is rarely the deciding factor. The performance difference between two proposals usually comes from design quality and from how well the installer understands your site: roof condition, structural constraints, shading, electrical distribution, and the way your business uses power across the day. We use a practical, engineering-led approach that keeps the proposal understandable for decision-makers while still covering the technical essentials.
The starting point is your metered consumption pattern. Solar pays back fastest when you consume most of the generation on site, because offsetting imported electricity is typically more valuable than exporting. We review available data (interval readings where available, or historical bills) and design a system size that targets a high self-consumption percentage. This prevents a common mistake: oversizing the array for the roof but undersizing for the load shape, leading to unnecessary export and slower payback.
We then confirm roof suitability and cable routes. Many Dublin and Leinster sites have large, practical roofs, but the best array layout may be affected by rooflights, vents, access points, or parapets. We plan safe isolator locations and protection devices, and we provide a commissioning process that makes handover straightforward for facilities teams. If you operate across multiple sites, we can also advise how to standardise monitoring so that performance comparisons are like-for-like.
Commercial proposal deliverables
A decision-ready proposal should help you compare installers without guesswork. We provide clear estimates and state the assumptions used, so you can sense-check the result. If you want a second opinion on another quote, we can explain what to look for and which questions to ask.
- System size (kWp) and expected annual generation (kWh)
- Self-consumption estimate and export assumptions
- Protection and isolation approach outlined clearly
- Monitoring method and what gets reported
Common questions from Irish businesses
Will solar disrupt operations?
We plan access, lifting, and electrical tie-in with your site contact. Most work happens on the roof and in plant areas, with minimal impact on day-to-day activity.
Is battery storage useful commercially?
Sometimes. For sites with evening demand, peak charges, or variable tariffs, storage can improve outcomes. We assess this in the proposal and keep the assumptions clear.
What about maintenance?
Solar PV is low-maintenance, but monitoring and periodic checks help protect uptime. We explain what to watch for and what an annual review includes.
Monitoring that facilities teams can use
A commercial system is only valuable when it stays visible. We set up monitoring so you can see generation trends, compare weeks and seasons, and spot faults early. For multi-site operations, we can advise on a consistent reporting approach.
Get a commercial solar quote with clear assumptions
If you share your site location, roof type, and recent electricity usage, we can produce a proposal that estimates generation, self-consumption, and payback with the assumptions stated. We cover Dublin first, then Wicklow, Meath, Kildare, and Louth, with wider Leinster as standard.
