Solar panels for warehouses in Bristol City Centre
A Bristol City Centre warehouse roof sits idle through exactly the hours its occupier buys the most expensive electricity. What decides a scheme here is the state of the covering and the load path, which is why the survey starts on the roof rather than in a spreadsheet.

Logistics solar PV across Bristol
Bristol City Centre ranks 0 of 5 towns we cover in Bristol on modelled yield, against a national mean of 886 kWh per kWp. The county runs from 895 to 908, a spread of 13 kWh per kWp. Within Bristol that difference is small enough to ignore: where the building sits is not what decides this scheme, your consumption pattern is.
Grid connection through National Grid Electricity Distribution
Connections around Bristol City Centre are handled by National Grid Electricity Distribution, which sets the export limit for the site. Above 3.68 kW per phase the connection runs under G99, so the export limit is agreed in advance rather than assumed. Where the local network is constrained, an export-limited connection usually still makes the scheme work, because a warehouse uses most of what the roof makes during the working day.
