Selby, North Yorkshire
Commercial solar in Selby
Funded solar PV and battery storage for Selby businesses — zero upfront cost, a fixed rate below the grid, fully managed.
Selby sits in an agricultural district shaped by the old Selby coalfield and by nearby power generation at Drax. Food processing, agriculture and logistics fill its estates, running steady daytime loads. Funded commercial solar suits them, and a PPA gives Selby businesses a fixed rate at least 30% below the grid with no upfront cost.
Selby grew around agriculture, shipbuilding on the Ouse and, later, the Selby coalfield, and it still sits close to major power generation at Drax. Today food processing, animal feed, farming and distribution lead the local economy across the surrounding estates and rural sites, all of which use most of their power in daylight hours.
PPA Funding introduces Selby businesses to funded commercial solar and battery storage through a power purchase agreement. There is no capital outlay: the funder installs and maintains the system, and you pay 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, and farm buildings and ground-mounted arrays can be considered too.

Questions
Commercial solar in Selby — FAQs
We farm and have barn roofs and spare land. What are the options?
Both can work. Large agricultural roofs often suit rooftop solar, and where you have unproductive land, a ground-mounted array is an option. Systems are usually sized to your own consumption first so most generation is used on site.
Do you cover rural North Yorkshire, not just the town?
Yes. We introduce businesses in Selby, across rural North Yorkshire and the whole UK to funded solar, so farms and units in Sherburn-in-Elmet, Tadcaster, Cawood and the surrounding villages are all covered.
