Overview

PV Plus delivered a large commercial solar PV installation across four industrial buildings in Basingstoke. Each building was fitted with a high-efficiency solar system designed to lower energy costs, cut carbon emissions, and make full use of the available roof space.

This project highlights our expertise in delivering multi-building commercial solar solutions with a consistent, high-quality approach.

The Challenge

The project required careful planning to coordinate installations across four separate buildings within an active industrial estate.
Key considerations included:

  • Managing logistics and access while minimising disruption to tenants.

  • Designing each system to maximise generation while remaining structurally compliant and safe.

  • Ensuring each building’s system could operate independently while forming part of a cohesive overall site strategy.

Our Solution

PV Plus delivered the works by:

  • Installing 92 JA Solar 455W panels per building, totalling 368 panels across the site.

  • Providing 1 x 30kW inverter per building to manage generation and ensure reliable performance.

  • Using Esdec mounting systems to provide secure, durable trap roof installations.

  • Phasing the work to maintain safe access and smooth operations for the businesses on site.

The Result

The combined installation has a total capacity of 167.44 kWp, producing approximately 160 MWh of clean energy annually.
This results in a carbon saving of around 37 tonnes of CO₂ per year, supporting the site’s sustainability targets while significantly reducing operational energy costs.

Why PV Plus

With experience in coordinating complex commercial installations, PV Plus is trusted to deliver safe, compliant, and high-performing solar systems. For the Onslow project, our ability to manage multiple buildings and stakeholders ensured a seamless, future-proof solution.
