BeBa Energy UK Ltd have completed the installation of a major solar PV rooftop project for KLM UK Engineering Ltd and Norwich Airport on the new Hangar 9 project, a building which was specifically designed and built to include solar panels.
On Wednesday 3rd March 2010 Rishi Sunak announced the ’Super-Deduction’. The initiative, designed to stimulate investment and encourage growth, has been labelled ‘the biggest business tax cut in modern British history’
Green investment will reduce the UK’s largest topfruit producer’s carbon emissions by almost 300 tonnes a year
Solar specialists BeBa Energy UK Ltd returned to the impressive new building a year after it had been commissioned to check the predicted figures against reality.
Hildon Water’s 249.7kW solar PV array has outperformed its performance prediction by nearly 4% for the 18 months to August 2020.
BeBa Energy UK Ltd are delighted to have been chosen as one of Sky’s SME100. Top 100 ! The initiative, launched by Sky in May
For many businesses that installed solar panels between 2010 – 2015 it was something of a gamble.
Solar was far from a proven technology in the UK, and the cost of the installation was very high.
As a result, many businesses did not necessarily realise the full potential of their roof or land as they chose to invest based upon a budget, the ‘FIT bands’ and their appetite for risk.
BeBa Energy are proud to have a dynamic team of individuals. The first in our series of Meet the Team articles introduces our Project Administrator, Megan Fulham.
As the efficiency of solar panels has increased, the interest and economic viability of solar farms is on the rise once again.
In order to understand if solar is still worth it, it’s probably a good idea to give some background and explain why the questions in phrased that way.
Solar Power Portal recently caught up with our very own Sales Director Shaun Beattie, to delve into our early beginnings as a joint venture, using Google Earth to source new opportunities and the “buoyant” UK commercial solar market.
There is a widespread misconception that solar systems are a ‘fit-and-forget’ technology. Whilst it is true that solar PV systems contain no moving parts, they are still made up of many different components that can, on occasion, go wrong.
When considering a solar PV installation, it is important to ensure all local laws, rules and regulations are complied with.
Once you have made the decision to explore the options for generating your own clean power, where do you start and what is the process?
It’s widely accepted that if you want to get the absolute most out of a solar panel it should be south facing to capture the sun as it travels from east to west.
But what if your buildings do not face south?
A solar PV system must work in harmony with the local distribution network. Sometimes, this isn’t always possible
If you have made the decision to consider powering your facility via solar panels on your roof/land, the next logical question to ask is – ‘what size should the system be?
Whilst solar PV systems are fairly straight forward in the way that they operate it’s important to understand poor installation can cause issues further down the line.
By far the most common question we are asked at the moment is – ‘should we consider energy storage/batteries as part of our project/add it to our existing system?
By funding the system via cash, not only do you own the asset from day one, you will not need to worry about interest costs eating into your return on investment.
Asset finance allows a business to borrow the money for a solar panel installation with the funds secured against the asset that is being purchased – in this example, the solar panels and associated equipment.
As you might expect, the answer to this question is far from straightforward. The cost of a commercial solar array is subject to several important variables, and this article will look at some of them.
Cleaning your solar panels isn’t just about getting the most amount of power from them, it’s about ensuring that they will continue to perform correctly well into the future.
For many businesses the upfront capital cost of solar panels is prohibitive – especially in the current economic climate. Power Purchase Agreements will allow you to install solar panels without any investment what so ever.
Although beautifully simple, solar PV installations are like any other electronic system: on occasion they could go wrong. This article looks at some of the most common solar inverter error codes.
Many businesses are put off installing solar panels on their roof because of question marks surrounding the long-term suitability of the roof cladding.
