Warehouses, distribution centres and industrial estates

Big roofs, big loads, big opportunities — TM44, PV and energy strategy for industrial portfolios.

Industrial and logistics buildings are the single largest under-used resource for on-site generation in the UK. We pair statutory compliance (TM44, EPCs, ESOS) with serious Solar PV consultancy and energy audits that recognise the realities of 24/7 operation, MHE charging loads and DNO constraints.

Sector pain points we solve

The challenges that come up over and over again on industrial & logistics estates — and the angles we take on them.

Roof condition vs PV ambition

Many older industrial roofs need re-coating or structural review before PV is viable — sequencing this with refurbishment cycles is where projects succeed or stall.

Grid and DNO constraints

Connection capacity, export limits and half-hourly metering are now the most common PV bottlenecks — not the panels themselves.

MHE charging loads

Electric forklifts and battery swap stations add significant load profiles that distort EPC, audit and PV modelling if not picked up properly.

EPC ratings on big sheds

Older units often sit at D/E with poor envelope performance — and MEES tightening hits hard at scale.

What we deliver

A joined-up programme of compliance and advisory work, sized to the sector's realities.

Independent Solar PV consultancy: feasibility, business case, DNO strategy, contractor selection
TM44 across distribution centre office and ambient cooling plant
Commercial EPCs and MEES uplift strategy across the estate
Energy audits that account for 24/7 ops and MHE charging
ESOS Phase 4 group sign-off across operating companies

Services we lean on for this sector

Common questions

Can you assess PV across a whole portfolio?

Yes — we run portfolio-level screening followed by full feasibility on the strongest sites, with consolidated business case reporting.

Do you coordinate with the DNO?

Yes. DNO liaison, capacity studies and connection strategy are part of every Solar PV engagement.
