Solar panels for farms across Kent

Kent, the Garden of England, offers exceptional opportunities for agricultural solar installations. With extensive fruit orchards, hop gardens, and arable farming, Kent’s diverse agricultural landscape benefits significantly from solar energy solutions.

We deliver MCS-certified solar PV across Kent for dairy, livestock, arable, poultry and mixed enterprises. Every project starts with half-hourly meter data analysis, a structural survey, and a fixed-price proposal — typically within 7 working days. Our installation teams cover Maidstone, Canterbury, Dover, Ashford, Tunbridge Wells, Dartford, and the wider Kent area.

Local challenges we plan around

• Heritage and conservation area restrictions
• Seasonal workforce accommodation power needs
• Fruit storage and processing facility energy demands
• Hop drying energy requirements
• Coastal weather conditions in eastern areas

Seasonal and irradiance profile

Kent’s southern location provides excellent solar irradiance, particularly beneficial for fruit farming operations requiring consistent power for storage and processing facilities.

Recent Kent installations

Installed a 150kW system across multiple buildings on a major fruit farm near Canterbury, reducing annual energy costs by £45,000 and providing reliable power for cold storage facilities.

Frequently asked questions

Are there planning restrictions for solar panels on Kent farms?

Kent has various conservation areas and AONB designations. We handle all planning requirements and work within local restrictions to find suitable solutions for your farm.

How do solar panels perform with Kent’s coastal weather?

Kent’s coastal areas receive excellent solar irradiance. We use marine-grade components for coastal installations to handle salt air and weather conditions.
