Gather the energy information
Recent bills, interval data where available, business hours and seasonal operating changes provide the starting picture of when power is actually used.
Bring the site into the conversation
Usable roof area, shade, access, metering, switchboard and tenancy arrangements can all influence the design and how install work fits around operations.
- Bills or available interval data
- Operating hours and seasonal loads
- Roof access and site information
- Metering and switchboard details
- Future battery or EV charging loads
Ask for visible assumptions
The proposal should make the proposed scope and the information behind it clear enough for the business to review—and for someone local to still answer questions after the install.
