Commercial Solar FAQ
Can I install solar on a rented factory?
Yes, with landlord approval. Options include transferring system upon lease end, or negotiating lease terms that factor in solar benefits. PPA (Power Purchase Agreement) models work well for tenants.
What if my factory runs 24/7?
Solar generation is during daytime (7am-7pm). For 24/7 operations, solar covers 40-60% of consumption during peak production hours. Battery storage can extend benefits to night shifts.
How long does commercial installation take?
Timeline depends on system size: 50-100kW takes 2-4 weeks, 500kW+ takes 1-2 months. Permit approval (TNB, SEDA) adds 4-8 weeks. We handle all paperwork.
Is structural assessment required?
Yes, for large systems we conduct structural analysis to ensure roof can support panel weight (15-20 kg/m²). Most industrial roofs easily accommodate solar. Reinforcement rarely needed.
