Solar panels for companies

Q: What kind of solar panels are installed for companies?

The same panels used for private homes can be installed for businesses. However, since businesses often have higher electricity consumption, it may be more cost-effective to choose higher-capacity panels (over 500 W) to reduce the number of units needed. These panels are physically larger and are typically not used for single-family homes.

Q: What kinds of businesses benefit from solar power?

Businesses with high electricity consumption are often ideal candidates for solar power. Solar energy can cover a portion of the electricity needs required for business operations. Another key factor is that the property must be suitable for solar panel installation. Alternatively, the system can be installed on ground-mounted structures.

Q: How does a solar energy system work?

A solar energy system collects solar radiation and converts it into electricity for use on the property. Solar panels generate direct current (DC), which is then converted to alternating current (AC) by an inverter. The electricity flows from the solar panels to the inverter and then into the building’s electrical system. Solar energy becomes the primary electricity source for the property. Consumption is first covered by solar energy, with any additional demand supplied by the grid. If consumption exceeds production, the grid supplies the remaining electricity. If production exceeds consumption, the surplus electricity is transferred to the grid, and you are compensated based on the market price of electricity (excluding VAT). Battery systems prevent grid feed-in by storing excess solar energy for later use. The system operates automatically, and your property’s electricity meter tracks both electricity purchases and sales. In Finland, electricity buying and selling are measured hourly.

Q: What happens to solar panels in winter?

Solar systems require no winter maintenance. They are designed to withstand Finnish snow loads and go into standby mode under a blanket of snow. Since sunlight is minimal in winter, clearing snow is unnecessary and may pose a safety risk. For safety reasons, we do not recommend climbing onto the roof. However, snow can be easily removed using a leaf blower as spring approaches. Alternatively, you can let the snow melt naturally as the weather warms.

Hehku Energia offers a simple, turnkey solution for solar panels for your company. With your own solar power system on the roof, you can reduce energy costs, lower your carbon footprint, and decrease your reliance on fluctuating electricity prices.
