Commercial solar for hospitality & clubs
Kitchens, cool rooms and air-con add up fast. Solar and storage soften the peaks.
The opportunity
Solar built around your sector
Pubs, clubs, cafes and venues run power-hungry kitchens, cool rooms, bars and air conditioning, often across long hours.
Solar offsets the heavy daytime portion of that load, and storage can help carry the busy evenings, protecting margins in a sector where every percent counts.

How hospitality venues use power
Why your load profile suits solar
Cooking, refrigeration and climate control drive a substantial daytime load, building toward service and trading peaks.
Daytime prep, cool rooms and air-con give solar plenty to offset, while a battery can shift cheap solar into the evening trade where a lot of venues see their biggest demand.
The benefits
What solar does for your business
Offset kitchens & cool rooms
Refrigeration and cooking run a heavy daytime load that solar is well placed to cover.
Soften demand peaks
Storage can shift solar into peak service hours and help shave the demand charges that hit larger venues.
Protect thin margins
Hospitality margins are tight. Cutting a major operating cost like power flows straight to the bottom line.
Beat the summer surge
Air-conditioning load peaks on hot days, precisely when your rooftop is generating the most.
How we design it
The details we get right for you
Evening trade and storage
For venues with big evening demand, we model a battery so cheap daytime solar can help cover the night.
Trading-hours works
We schedule the install around service so your trade and your customers are not disrupted.
Heavy, varied loads
Kitchens and bars create varied loads. We specify equipment that handles them cleanly and reliably.
Good to know
Hospitality solar questions
We are busiest at night, does solar still help?+
Yes. Solar covers your daytime prep, refrigeration and cooling, and a battery can shift stored solar into the evening trade. We model your load to size both correctly.
Can solar reduce our demand charges?+
Often, yes. Solar and a well-sized battery can shave the demand peaks that drive those charges for larger venues. We model the effect on your specific tariff.
Will the install interrupt service?+
We plan works around your trading hours and do disruptive tasks at quiet times, so service and customers are not affected.
What size system suits a club or pub?+
It varies widely with your kitchen, cool rooms and air-con, commonly 20kW to 150kW. We size it to your actual load and roof before quoting.
