At Live Solar we recently completed a large commercial solar installation at the headquarters of Champions PLC, transforming unused roof space into a powerful source of renewable energy.
The project involved the installation of 208 high-efficiency solar panels, carefully designed to maximise energy generation while integrating seamlessly with the building. The result is a rooftop solar system capable of producing a significant amount of electricity directly on site.
For businesses with large roof areas and daytime energy usage, projects like this demonstrate just how powerful solar panels for businesses can be when properly designed and installed.
Turning Roof Space Into Energy
Many commercial buildings have vast roof space that sits unused for decades. With the right solar design and engineering, that same roof can become a long-term energy asset.
For this installation, our team assessed the structure, orientation and available space to design a system that would generate strong performance throughout the year.
The finished installation now allows Champions PLC to produce a large portion of its electricity directly from the sun, reducing reliance on grid energy and helping protect the business from rising electricity costs.
Project Overview
This commercial rooftop solar system includes:
• 208 high-efficiency solar panels
• Optimised panel layout to maximise generation
• Commercial-grade inverters and electrical infrastructure
• Real-time monitoring to track system performance
Every component of the system was selected to ensure reliable generation and long-term durability.
Over £1 Million in Projected Lifetime Savings
One of the most exciting outcomes of this project is the long-term financial benefit.
Based on current modelling, the system is expected to deliver more than £1,000,000 in electricity savings over its lifetime.
For many companies, commercial solar installations offer one of the most reliable long-term investments available. Once installed, the system generates electricity every day from a free energy source — the sun.
Businesses installing solar panels can typically expect:
• Lower electricity bills
• Reduced exposure to rising energy prices
• Greater energy independence
• Improved sustainability credentials
Renewable Energy That Works for Business
Beyond the financial benefits, projects like this play an important role in helping companies reduce their environmental impact.
By generating electricity on site, Champions PLC is now producing clean renewable energy for their business, reducing reliance on fossil fuel generation and lowering carbon emissions over the lifetime of the system.
As more organisations adopt solar technology, commercial buildings across the UK are becoming a key part of the transition toward a cleaner energy system.
Installed by the Live Solar Team
Delivering a project of this scale requires careful planning and a highly experienced installation team.
From the initial design through to commissioning, the Live Solar team worked closely with the client to ensure the installation was completed efficiently and safely.
Attention to detail during installation ensures the system will perform reliably for decades, allowing the client to benefit from consistent renewable energy generation long into the future.
Another Proud Project for Live Solar
Seeing large rooftops transformed into productive renewable energy systems is always rewarding.
With 208 panels now generating electricity from the roof, this installation stands as a fantastic example of what’s possible when businesses invest in solar technology.
For Champions PLC, the project represents a major step toward long-term energy stability and sustainability.
