Commercial building solar panels across Shropshire
We arrange roof surveys on offices, retail units, hotels and leisure buildings throughout Shropshire, model what each roof can carry against the building's own consumption, and arrange the design, the grid application and the install through our MCS-certified partner.

What the data says about Shropshire
Modelled yield is consistent across Shropshire, from 842 kWh per kWp a year at Market Drayton to 860 at Ludlow. At that spread, location does not decide the case. Daytime consumption does.
Across the authority our Shropshire towns sit in, the Valuation Office Agency lists 1,790 office and 2,820 retail properties, 110 of them large-format stores and retail warehouses.

The planning database records 1 roof-mounted solar scheme on commercial buildings in the postcode districts we cover here. These are other organisations' projects, listed from the public record. Source: Renewable Energy Planning Database, Q1 2026.
Connections across the county run through National Grid Electricity Distribution. Anything above 3.68 kW per phase needs a G99 application, and the export limit offered shapes the design, so the question is asked before the array is sized.
- Shrewsbury 852 kWh/kWp
- Oswestry 855 kWh/kWp
- Bridgnorth 856 kWh/kWp
- Market Drayton 842 kWh/kWp
- Ludlow 860 kWh/kWp
