What we did:
Our pre-contract delivery and logistics plan gave the college the confidence and security that the project had been considered in great detail and we had a viable solution.
Installation by a competent and experienced installation company can be carried out very quickly and at minimum inconvenience to any client, with even large systems only taking a matter of weeks to complete. However, the process of planning and designing the correct PV system will always involve practical, time consuming and statutory elements prior to implementation.
Solarcrown Commercial, specialist consultants and delivery contractors are able to guide and support you through this initial process.
• Planning
All commercial Solar PV systems require planning consent of some form, Full planning, Certificate of Lawful Development or Prior Approval.
• DNO Approval
Prior to any connection of a commercial Solar PV system, approval must be obtained from the relevant Electricity Supplier or Distribution Network Operator (DNO)
• Structural Integrity
All structures supporting a Solar PV system must be checked for their structural capability to support the materials and equipment.
These 3 requirements must be satisfied prior to the installation of any Commercial Solar PV system and have statutory return times of a minimum of 8 to 12 weeks.
