Solar PV fast track assessment

Many businesses in Scotland already benefit from solar photovoltaics (PV). They can generate their own electricity and enjoy reduced energy costs, minimised energy supply risks and lower carbon emissions.

If you’re interested in exploring the benefits that solar PV could offer your business, and are a Scottish small or medium-sized enterprise (SME), Business Energy Scotland advisors can provide you with a free and impartial solar PV assessment.

Each assessment is based on the advisers’ vast experience, the latest Photovoltaic Geographical Information Systems, and data from thousands of existing PV installations in the UK. If solar PV is suitable for your business, you can use your assessment report to apply for an interest-free loan from the Scottish Government to help you fund your very own PV installation.

This fast-track assessment focusses on solar PV only. If you are also interested in battery storage or other energy saving and renewable technologies, you should request a comprehensive energy efficiency assessment instead – although please note, there is a high demand for energy efficiency assessments at this time.

You are eligible if your business or social enterprise:

  • is based in Scotland
  • has less than 250 employees
  • has a turnover of less than £50 million

Visit Business Energy Scotland’s website to access the free resources and to submit an enquiry for free support. Once you submit your enquiry, an adviser will be in touch to discuss your needs.
