Care for each roof like our own
Site surveys are to check the roof condition and accessibility of your electric panels. It usually finishes within 2 hours and won't cause any disturbance to your business operation.
“I pay great attention to the details during my site survey from the location of electric board to the optimal cable routes, so when it comes to the stage of installation, the process could be most efficient and running smoothly.
Jen Biju Varghese, Solar Project Associate
"Commercial solar projects have many moving parts and usually involve multiple parties before the installation could actually start. Absolar's mission is to be a single point of contact for our clients so they don't have to navigate through the bits and bobs themselves."
Nic Cory, Director of Absolar
The installation process normally lasts 2 to 4 weeks, depends on the size of the building. Our team works hard to ensure that our panel installation process has minimal disruption to your day-to-day operations.
Health and safety has always been paramount throughout our process. This is not only important for our team, but it also allows our clients confidence in that if they wish to visit the roof and see how installation is going themselves, they have that option.
Witness test
Witness test is the final step before a solar system could go live. It is performed by the power distribution networks (formally known as DNO or Distribution Network Operator) to ensure that the local network can accept the electricity generated and continue to operate within the require legal limits.
"Absolar are amazing partners - no nonsense, minimal bureaucracy, great analytics and fully deliver on their promise.”

Office | Commercial
Located in the centre of Cambridge in a Conservation Area with severely restricted access, the head office of Bidwells LLP is a 3-storey office building equipped with state-of-the-art office spaces and facilities. The building had been recently renovated with a new roof using a Sarnafil membrane covering material. As a result, the solar PV system was custom designed to be compatible with the specialist roof covering whilst retaining the warranty, utilising integrated mounting system to construct the unique solar PV system.
Printing | Commercial
Located in Totton, Southampton, Hobbs specialises in commercial lithographic print and digital services. With commitment to sustainability, the building was installed with 960 solar PV panels in 2015; and in this project, a new section of solar panels are added to the other side of the roof.
Industrial | Warehouse
With a footprint of over 25,000 square meter, the Draper Tools building in North Baddesley is a large scale industrial warehouse, supplying quality trade, professional and DIY tools. The building has a span of over 210 metres, with multiple roof sections and numerous skylights, which need to be carefully considered as part of the solar system design to 1) ensure health and safety during the installation process and 2) to optimise solar energy generation.
