Solar Farm & Energy Site Security

Solar farm and energy site security that protects remote assets

Solar farms, battery storage sites and substations are often remote, unmanned and full of valuable equipment. Cable theft, panel theft and vandalism can take a site offline for days, and the cost of lost generation often far outweighs the value of what was stolen.

At Octagon Risk Management, we provide security for solar farms and energy sites at every stage, from guarding the construction phase and protecting equipment deliveries, to patrols and alarm response once the site is operational. Our officers work to your site safety rules and permit procedures and provide clear reports so you always know the state of your site.

Leicestershire and the wider Midlands have a growing number of solar and battery storage sites, and we cover them across Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and Warwickshire.
