Commercial Solar Panels in Cumbria

J Harper Electrical provides commercial solar installations for businesses in Cockermouth and across Cumbria. We also carry out commercial electrical work, allowing solar enquiries to be considered alongside your premises’ electrical requirements.

Start with your business electricity use

A commercial solar enquiry should consider when the business operates and when electricity is used. Offices, workshops, retail premises and other businesses can have very different demand patterns. Share recent consumption information and operating hours to help inform the discussion.

Roof space and site requirements

Available roof area, orientation, shading and access are important starting points. Tell us about your building, ownership or lease arrangements and any known roof work. Ground-mounted solar is another service we provide where the site and project are suitable.

Solar with battery storage

Battery storage may be considered alongside solar where the use pattern and installation support it. Capacity, inverter compatibility, electrical connections and any backup requirements need an assessment. Read our battery storage guidance before making an enquiry.

A quotation for your premises

Every installation begins with a site survey and written quotation. The design, equipment, access requirements and any electrical remedial work must be confirmed for your premises. We arrange the required DNO G98/G99 paperwork as part of our solar installation process.

What to send with your enquiry

• Business address and postcode.
• Building type and approximate roof or ground space.
• Recent electricity use and operating hours.
• Existing solar or electrical equipment and planned building work.
• Any access restrictions or timing requirements.

We do not assume a fixed saving or payback period: the outcome depends on the confirmed system, generation, usage and energy costs.
