Limbs and Things
Limbs & Things were looking to reduce their energy costs and be greener to the environment, so the company decided to generate their own clean energy on-site with solar panels.

Solar PV panels for the manufacturing, engineering & waste management sectors.
Expansive roof space, intensive machinery & enormous energy bills – just a few reasons as to why commercial solar PV panels are the perfect match for UK manufacturing, engineering and waste management companies.
Solarsense provide a turnkey supply, installation and maintenance service for industrial solar panels and offer a range of finance options, including 100% asset finance and a competitive power purchase agreement (PPA).
From small, family-owned factories to large multinational organisations such as Brabantia and Renishaw, Solarsense has helped a wide range of manufacturing companies to reduce their energy bills and improve their sustainability. Get a free solar panel quote.
Increasingly weighty business overheads are making energy consumption a growing source of concern, particularly with utility prices rising year on year. As a result forward thinking manufacturers are looking closely at both what they pay for their energy and how they use it.
Through installing solar PV panels manufacturing and engineering businesses are able to considerably cut their overheads, improve business operations and increase their bottom line with up to 100% savings on their daytime electricity costs.
Generally speaking, the higher the user of energy – the higher the savings and therefore the larger the benefits sought – making the manufacturing sector the perfect case for solar panels and renewable energy technologies.
Sustainability is becoming increasingly important within the supply chain – The UK government is putting pressure on companies to turn to sustainable solutions and therefore wholesalers & retailers are now considering green credentials when choosing their suppliers. Installing solar panels not only reduces business overheads but improves your ‘green credentials’, in turn creating an effective PR tool.
If your organisation qualifies for ESOS, Solarsense can help to assess your current energy use and provide a solar PV desktop survey for your company to submit with your next energy audit. For more information on ESOS please visit the Government services website by clicking here.
Whilst self-financing is the most popular option for purchasing commercial solar panels and offers the best returns over the lifetime of a system, many companies have restricted budgets or would prefer to spend their capital elsewhere.
Solarsense has partnered with some of the UK’s leading financial institutions. From asset finance and hire purchase to a power purchase agreement (PPA) we will ensure you receive the best advice available and a bespoke finance package to suit your specific business.

A power purchase agreement (PPA) has quickly become one of the most popular ways for large organisations to finance solar panels. If your energy usage and roof space meet specific criteria, this solution will allow you to benefit from a free solar PV installation, financed by a PPA provider.
Electricity generated by the system is then sold back to you at a rate much cheaper than your current energy prices; saving you thousands of pounds on your bills and providing your business with all the benefits of solar PV with no upfront cost.
You rent your roof and buy the discounted solar electricity rather than investing in a solar PV system of your own.
Solarsense has unrivalled expertise when it comes to installing on commercial rooftops – we have installed solar PV on every type of roof and work in a way that doesn’t disturb your business activity.
