Chorley, Lancashire
Commercial solar in Chorley
Funded solar PV and battery storage for Chorley businesses — zero upfront cost, a fixed rate below the grid, fully managed.
Chorley sits on the M6 and M61 and has become a base for logistics, manufacturing and engineering alongside its textile past. Distribution sheds and factory units run lighting, plant and refrigeration through the day. Funded commercial solar cuts that cost, and a PPA gives Chorley businesses a fixed rate below the grid with zero upfront outlay.
Chorley grew on cotton and engineering, and its position where the M6 meets the M61 has made it a natural home for distribution and light manufacturing serving the North West. Warehouses, factory units and trade premises across the town use most of their electricity in daylight, which is exactly when a solar array is generating.
PPA Funding introduces Chorley businesses to funded commercial solar and battery storage through a power purchase agreement. There is no capital outlay: the funder pays for, installs and maintains the system, and you buy its output at a fixed price per unit set at least 30% below grid rates. Hire purchase, leasing and outright purchase suit firms that would rather hold the asset themselves.

Questions
Commercial solar in Chorley — FAQs
We lease our warehouse rather than own it. Can we still go solar?
It is possible, but a solar installation needs landlord agreement because the panels are fixed to the building. Where you have a long remaining lease and a co-operative landlord, a PPA can still work, and we can talk through the practicalities.
How quickly can a system be installed?
Timescales depend on site surveys, design, any grid connection approval and the size of the system, but a typical commercial rooftop install runs from a few weeks to a few months from agreement. We set out the steps clearly before you commit.
