Rooftop solar PV is a good investment opportunity in its own right, providing an internal rate of return of 10-15%* on self financed projects. Solar PV systems have lifetime of 25 years adding to the total warehouse asset value. Increased ESG interest by institutional investors is leading to CO2 emission-based investment criteria.
Continuous research and development of PV materials has led to highly efficient solutions for rooftop PV promotion, including the reduction of production costs, improvement of building integration, higher cell efficiency, and flexibility for placement in uneven building surfaces.
PV is extensively used, Liu et al. (2022a) proposed that an integrated system of rooftop PV and electric vehicles has a higher PV utilization rate than a pure PV system, promoting the integration of PV with multiple industries.
This paper has exclusively examined the power generation potential of distributed photovoltaic (PV) systems installed on rooftops. However, in practical applications, distributed PV systems are also prevalent in various other scenarios, such as alongside roadsides, over water surfaces, and within public facilities.
As the warehousing sector possesses approximately a third of all commercial roof space it has a large potential role to support the rollout of solar PV generation. This report summarises the potential benefits for rooftop solar PV in warehousing for the sector’s key players and the overall national and local benefits.
The roof-mounted solar PV is installed at the optimum angle for each latitude and is sun-facing and shade-free to generate maximum electricity output. The building rooftops are flat in design leading to the utilization of the entire rooftop for the installation of solar panels.
