Low Carbon Automotive Facilities

For vehicle dealerships, garages and automotive facilities, low carbon automotive facilities can form part of a practical strategy to control energy consumption and support sustainability objectives. Because electricity supports workshop equipment, showroom lighting, ventilation and site services, project planning should consider operating hours, site constraints and existing electrical infrastructure.

An assessment of site electricity use can help identify areas where better controls, equipment operation or renewable generation may improve overall efficiency. The commercial case will depend on consumption data, equipment suitability and the layout of the property.

British Power Energy works with organisations to explore solar PV, solar carports, battery storage, voltage optimisation and energy management options. Solutions should be matched to actual site needs, with attention to workshop productivity and customer access.
