Melton West: Setting the Standard
Melton West Business Park has grown to 200 acres with 2.5 million sq ft of commercial space under construction. Located west of Hull near the A63/M62 corridor, it has become the region's premier destination for large-scale logistics, manufacturing, and office development.
The newest phase — Evolve @ Melton West — has set a precedent by including rooftop solar panels as standard on its EPC A-rated units. This demonstrates clear market acceptance and expectation that modern commercial buildings integrate on-site energy generation from day one.
Major occupiers include Amazon's £180m fulfilment centre and Smith & Nephew's £120m advanced manufacturing facility, alongside Heron Foods' headquarters and distribution operation. The park's modern building stock, designed to current standards, makes solar installation technically straightforward.
Solar as Standard
Evolve @ Melton West builds feature rooftop solar from the start, achieving EPC A ratings. The precedent is set for the entire park.
Modern Building Stock
Purpose-built commercial units designed to current standards with strong roof structures and ample load capacity for solar systems.
Solar Opportunities at Melton West
- New-Build Integration: For tenants fitting out new units, installing solar during the fit-out phase is the most cost-effective approach. We coordinate with developers and contractors to integrate PV systems seamlessly.
- Existing Buildings: Established occupiers at Melton West can retrofit solar onto existing buildings. Modern construction methods used in recent years mean most buildings can accommodate 100kW-500kW+ systems without structural modification.
- Logistics & Fulfilment: Large warehouse roofs offer exceptional economies of scale. A 50,000 sq ft warehouse can typically accommodate a 300-400kW system generating 250,000-340,000 kWh annually.
- Manufacturing: Smith & Nephew's new facility and similar advanced manufacturing operations benefit from solar's ability to reduce the cost of high base-load consumption.
