Solar and Storage for Warehouses

For distribution centres, fulfilment hubs and warehouses, solar and storage for warehouses can form part of a practical strategy to control energy consumption and support sustainability objectives. Because electricity supports warehouse lighting, handling equipment, heating and loading operations, project planning should consider operating hours, site constraints and existing electrical infrastructure.

Battery storage can help a site use more of its own generated electricity and manage when stored energy is available, subject to system design and operating requirements. 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 dispatch schedules and uninterrupted site access.
