A car dealership simply can’t operate without electricity. It’s needed to power lighting, computers, and security systems, as well as heating, cooling, and ventilation. Many modern car dealerships also have EV charging stations and on-site service centres, which come equipped with electric tools, diagnostic equipment, lifts, air compressors, and much more.
As crucial as it is, the cost of using all this electricity quickly adds up. Without a way to lower your energy bills, you’ll soon find most of your expenses eaten up by your day-to-day operations alone. Luckily, commercial solar panels offer the perfect money-saving solution.
At ProStar Energy, we specialise in installing affordable commercial solar panel systems for car dealerships and other commercial properties. Our team is well-equipped to design a system that aligns with your property’s specific energy needs, no matter how complex. By balancing cost-efficiency with output optimisation, we’re able to get you the very best performance from your installation.

The automotive industry is under more pressure than ever to reduce its environmental impact. In a 2021 study, nearly two-thirds of car buyers rated themselves as very or extremely concerned with the impact their purchases have on the environment.
By installing commercial solar panels, you’ll reduce your car dealership's carbon footprint and showcase your commitment to lowering your environmental impact. It's an eco-friendly choice that not only benefits your business, but also contributes to a greener and more sustainable future for all.
Switching to solar can do more than just meet your dealership's energy needs. With the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), you have the opportunity to sell any excess electricity generated by your solar power system back to the grid. It's like turning your rooftop into a mini power plant that not only benefits the environment, but also boosts your bottom line!
At ProStar Energy, our team of qualified experts have a wealth of experience in designing, supplying, and installing commercial solar systems for buildings of all shapes and sizes. You can rely on us to deliver a high-output and visually appealing commercial solar system that performs exactly as you need it to.
We offer two main types of purchasing options: Standard Purchase and Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). Whether you choose to pay upfront or prefer to explore the advantages of a PPA, we’ll provide you with all the information and support you need to make an informed decision.
If you prefer an alternative to upfront payment, signing up for a PPA might be the perfect choice for you.
A PPA involves a long-term agreement between two parties, typically a power producer and yourself as the customer. The producer takes care of everything, from obtaining necessary permissions to operating and maintaining the commercial solar system, usually with little-to-no upfront cost to you.
While you're under the PPA contract, you can enjoy the benefits of up to a 30% reduction in your energy bills, thanks to the savings generated from your utility provider. Simultaneously, the developer earns income by selling the electricity produced by the commercial solar PV system. These contracts typically span a longer period, usually around 10 to 25 years, giving you long-term security and peace of mind.
Once the contract term ends, you have several options available to you. You can choose to have the system removed if you no longer require it, extend the PPA agreement if you're satisfied with the arrangement, or even have the opportunity to purchase the energy system outright.
With a PPA, you can embrace solar power with greater flexibility and financial benefits, all while leaving the responsibility of system operation and maintenance to the experts.
