Agricultural & farm solar
Farms have ideal solar profiles — large south-aspect barn roofs, three-phase supply, daytime loads from milking parlours and refrigeration.
Agricultural solar in Scotland has flipped from niche to obvious. A typical 150kWp Bathgate or Falkirk dairy farm sees 4-6 year paybacks with 50% first-year capital allowance — and the parlour load shape captures 65-75% of generation on-site.
See our Bathgate dairy farm case study for full numbers.
Whichever phase you are at, the underlying engineering is set out in full on our commercial solar companies page — 30-500kWp+ sizing against half-hourly demand, the roof-type mounting matrix, the G99 route, and the CapEx / lease / PPA comparison we build into every fixed-price feasibility study. Where a building's fabric is the bigger loss, we will point you at the roof insulation types that cut demand first.
What's included
- 50-300kWp+ ground-mount or barn-roof
- Three-phase G99 handled in-house
- Parlour and refrigeration load matching
- Capital allowances + ECO4 stack
- NFU Mutual / Cornish Mutual coordination
- Rural HES grant route consultation
