Why More Manufacturers & Industrial Sites Are Switching to Solar

Rising electricity prices. Slimmer margins. Pressure to decarbonise. Sound familiar?

Manufacturing and industrial sites are facing unprecedented energy strain, and solar is the solution operators are turning to for cost control, continuity, and compliance.

auron helps factories, warehouses, and production facilities cut bills, reduce downtime risk, and meet Scope 2 and ESG goals, all without disrupting operations or site safety.

Switching to solar gives you:

  • Lower energy costs – reduce site bills by up to 70%

  • Resilience for 24/7 operations – protect uptime with solar + battery backup

  • Carbon reporting & ESG compliance – meet client and investor expectations

  • Energy independence – stabilise OPEX and future proof your margins

  • High ROI asset investment – see payback in as little as 2 years

From machine shops to megaplants, auron builds solar systems that hit KPIs, cut costs, and work as hard as your team does.

Switching to Solar helps your site protect margins, power uptime, and scale with confidence:

1. Reduce Energy Costs

Manufacturing is energy intensive, from lighting and machinery to cooling and compressed air. Solar slashes those costs by up to 70%.

That’s less on your bills, and more in your margins.
Grid prices are rising fast. Solar locks in savings that compound year after year. Free up capital, reinvest in equipment, and protect your profit no matter what’s happening on the energy market.

2. Increase Resilience & Uptime

Pairing solar with battery storage helps protect your operation from outages, peak time pricing, and grid instability.
Solar gives you energy autonomy. Maintain productivity during supply shocks, keep critical systems online, and gain operational control in a volatile energy world.

3. Meet ESG & Reporting Goals

Clients, investors, and regulators want low carbon supply chains. Solar gets your Scope 2 emissions down, and your compliance up.
From BREEAM and ISO14001 to Scope 2 and CSR reports, solar helps you prove sustainability with live data, verified savings, and zero greenwashing.

4. Maximise ROI

Solar isn’t just about cutting costs, it’s a long term asset with serious financial return. Most sites hit payback in 2–4 years.
After that? Pure gain. Solar boosts site value, reduces OpEx, and enables export revenue. It’s a smart investment, for your balance sheet and your brand.

From CNC machines and refrigeration to lighting and conveyor belts, power usage is relentless. But with auron’s solar + battery systems, you can cut your energy bills by up to 70%, while unlocking new revenue by selling excess energy back to the grid.

Instead of watching profits leak into utility bills, turn your rooftop into a revenue generating asset, one that supports production and pays you back for decades.

With auron, every square metre of roof = financial firepower. Let’s get you paid for the power you don’t use.

Flexible Funding That Works
for Manufacturers & Industrial Operators

auron understands the pressure of high OPEX, long procurement cycles, and the need for serious ROI, without tying up working capital.

That’s why we offer flexible funding models designed to help you install solar, save money, and stay agile.

Choose the model that suits your business best:

  • Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)
    Pay nothing upfront. We install and maintain your solar system, and you simply buy the electricity it generates, at a lower rate than your current supplier.

  • Lease to Own
    Spread the cost of your system over manageable monthly payments. You own the system at the end of the term and enjoy the full benefits throughout.

  • Outright Purchase
    Maximise long term returns with a single upfront investment. Full ownership, full savings, full control from day one.

All options include full installation, monitoring and performance support.

Finance is available for most UK manufacturing and industrial facilities, subject to eligibility.

Got Questions? We’ve Got You Covered.

We know solar has to work as hard as your plant does. Here are the questions we get asked most by manufacturers and industrial operators like you:

Not at all. We plan installations around shift schedules, production downtimes, and safety protocols, often completing installs with zero interruption to your output.

Yes. Our PPA and lease models are specifically designed for OPEX-focused businesses that want to save immediately without touching capex. You start saving from day one.

Absolutely. We size systems for heavy demand, and pair with battery storage where needed to support uptime, peak use, and high draw equipment.

Yes. We provide live carbon savings data, export reports, and documentation to support your ESG reporting, customer sustainability audits, and ISO/CSR targets.

Definitely. If your site produces more power than it uses (especially at weekends or during seasonal downtimes), that surplus energy can be sold back to the grid, turning your rooftop into a revenue stream.
