A commercial solar park enables large-scale renewable electricity generation for a company’s own consumption or for sale to the grid. This solution may be suitable for industrial companies, logistics centres, business parks, landowners and investors with suitable land or roof space available.
The solar park’s capacity, expected annual energy production and financial viability depend on the site location, grid connection opportunities, investment cost, electricity prices and the project’s business model.
Support and Financing Opportunities
Financing options for a commercial solar park depend on the size of the project, business model, location, grid connection and investor profile. Depending on the period, various financing instruments, investment loans or project-based support measures may be available.
Combined support can reach up to 70% of capital expenditures when using a mix of these instruments. Additionally, Estonia has quotas for green certificates and schemes for purchasing renewable energy at fixed tariffs, which guarantee stable revenue for your solar park.
Altmer Energy helps assess the technical feasibility of the project, prepare a preliminary solution and quotation, and compile the technical input required for financial analysis.
Before making an investment decision, the current terms and conditions of the relevant financing or support measure should be reviewed and an individual financial analysis of the project should be carried out.
A commercial solar park may be suitable for companies, landowners and investors who have sufficient land or roof area available and a technically suitable option for connecting to the electricity grid or consuming the generated energy on-site.
This solution may be suitable for manufacturing companies, logistics and warehouse centres, business parks, large commercial buildings and energy companies.
At sites with large roof areas and significant daytime electricity consumption, solar energy can cover a substantial share of daytime energy demand. The actual self-consumption rate is determined based on consumption data and the generation forecast.
The profitability of the investment depends on the total project cost, electricity price, grid connection costs, financing conditions and whether the generated energy is used on-site or sold to the grid. An economic analysis is prepared separately for each project.
In summary, a commercial solar park is suitable for those who want to produce renewable energy on a larger scale, have suitable land or roof area available and are looking for a long-term investment opportunity. If your goal is to reduce energy risks and generate long-term income from electricity production, building your own solar park may be a suitable investment.
