Solar Survey

Retrofit EPC solar survey can help reduce carbon footprint and energy costs in several ways:

  1. Identify Energy Inefficiencies: The survey will identify energy inefficiencies in your business premises, such as poorly insulated walls or windows, outdated lighting systems, or inefficient heating and cooling systems. By identifying and addressing these inefficiencies, you can reduce the amount of energy required to run your business, which in turn reduces your carbon footprint and energy costs.

  2. Assess Solar Potential: The survey will assess the potential for installing solar panels on your business premises. By harnessing the power of the sun, you can generate clean energy and reduce your reliance on fossil fuels. This can significantly reduce your carbon footprint and energy costs.

  3. Evaluate Energy Performance: The survey will evaluate the energy performance of your business premises and identify areas where you can optimize your energy use. By adopting energy-efficient practices and technologies, such as LED lighting and smart thermostats, you can reduce your energy consumption and carbon footprint.

  4. Improve Building Systems: The survey will assess the performance of your building systems, such as HVAC and lighting, and recommend upgrades or replacements to improve energy efficiency. By upgrading to more energy-efficient systems, you can reduce your energy consumption and carbon footprint, while also saving on energy costs.                                                                  

Retrofit EPC solar survey can help you reduce your carbon footprint and energy costs by identifying energy inefficiencies, assessing solar potential, evaluating energy performance, and improving building systems. By implementing the recommendations from the survey, you can create a more sustainable business and reduce your impact on the environment

 

 

 

Retrofit EPC make assessments for properties to see if it's a good candidate for solar panel installation. The survey typically involves a site visit by a solar professional or technician, who will evaluate the property's location, orientation, shading, and other factors that may affect its solar potential.

During a solar survey, the technician may use specialized tools and equipment to measure the amount of sunlight that the property receives throughout the day, including a solar pathfinder, which can accurately measure shading patterns, and a sun tracker, which can determine the exact angle and orientation of the sun at different times of the day and year.

The technician may also examine the property's electrical system to determine if it can accommodate a solar panel installation and assess the roof's condition to ensure it can support the weight of solar panels.

Once the solar survey is complete, the technician will provide the property owner with a report outlining the solar potential of the property, including estimates of the amount of electricity that can be generated by a solar panel system, the expected cost and return on investment, and any recommended modifications or upgrades to the property to optimize solar performance.
