Solar for commercial landlords and property owners
Commercial landlords can explore solar as a way to improve asset value, support tenant energy needs and create stronger sustainability credentials across industrial and commercial properties.
Common challenges
- Increasing tenant expectations around sustainability
- Pressure to improve EPC ratings and ESG reporting
- Underused roof assets across the portfolio
Why solar can work well
- Improves long-term asset value and marketability
- Supports green lease provisions and tenant proposition
- PPA structures can transfer capital and operational risk
If you own or manage commercial properties with unused roof space, the calculator can give you an indicative view of system size and tenant-facing savings. A feasibility review will map ownership structures, lease implications and the right finance route for your portfolio.
Finance angle
PPA or third-party-owned models can deliver landlord and tenant benefit without landlord capital outlay.

Sector FAQs
Can the system sit across landlord and tenant supply?
Yes — common structures include landlord-owned with PPA to tenant, or third-party ownership with both parties signed up. Solar Britain helps map the right structure.
