Macclesfield, Cheshire
Commercial solar in Macclesfield
Funded solar PV and battery storage for Macclesfield businesses — zero upfront cost, a fixed rate below the grid, fully managed.
Macclesfield is a centre for pharmaceuticals and life sciences, with major drug manufacturing and research alongside a silk-industry heritage and precision engineering. Labs, clean rooms and production halls draw heavy, controlled daytime power, so solar offsets a real share of it, funded through a PPA with no upfront cost.
Macclesfield has a long industrial history in silk, and today it is best known as a life-sciences town, with large-scale pharmaceutical manufacturing and research based nearby. Precision engineering and technology firms round out the local economy. Laboratories, clean rooms and production facilities need reliable, continuous power during the working day, and their sizeable buildings often have roof space that suits a solar array.
PPA Funding introduces Macclesfield businesses to funded commercial solar and battery storage through a Power Purchase Agreement. The funder installs and maintains the system at no cost to you, and you buy the electricity it produces at a fixed rate at least 30% below grid prices. At the end of the roughly 20-year term the equipment becomes yours for £1.

Questions
Commercial solar in Macclesfield — FAQs
