About Horizon Commercial Solar

Big enough to deliver, small enough to care

We design, install and support commercial solar PV systems for businesses, farms and organisations across the UK, all from our rural Cheshire base.

Who we are

Horizon Commercial Solar is a trading name of Rural & Country Energy Limited. We operate from rural farm buildings in Saighton, Chester. Although we are a large regional specialist installer, we keep our feet firmly on the ground and bring a family feel to every project.

We believe in transparent, ethical advice and an open-door approach. Many customers become long-standing friends because the same knowledgeable people support them from the first assessment through design, installation and aftercare.

Co-founders Lee Stewart and Mike Lowes established the business after many years as friends and colleagues. Their shared passion for renewable energy continues to shape a team committed to practical design, quality workmanship and measurable results.
