Hinckley, Leicestershire
Commercial solar in Hinckley
Funded solar PV and battery storage for Hinckley businesses — zero upfront cost, a fixed rate below the grid, fully managed.
Hinckley built its name on hosiery and knitwear and now mixes textiles with logistics and manufacturing near the M69 and M1, close to the MIRA technology cluster. Its factories and warehouses run daytime loads. Funded commercial solar suits them, and a PPA gives Hinckley businesses a fixed rate at least 30% below the grid with zero upfront cost.
Hinckley was one of the main centres of English hosiery and knitwear, and while textiles have contracted, the town keeps a manufacturing base and has grown as a logistics location off the M69 and M1, near the automotive research cluster at MIRA. Factory units and distribution sheds here draw most of their electricity during the working day.
PPA Funding introduces Hinckley businesses to funded solar and battery storage under a power purchase agreement. There is no capital outlay: the funder 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 are available for firms that want to own the panels from day one.

Questions
Commercial solar in Hinckley — FAQs
