Find Commercial Rooftops for Solar in Costești
Costești is part of Argeș County, Romania where commercial rooftops — warehouses, factories, distribution centres and retail parks — represent a large, largely untapped opportunity for solar. SolarScout uses satellite imagery and OpenStreetMap to detect those buildings automatically and turn them into ready-to-contact solar leads.
With a specific yield of around 1,212 kWh per kWp each year and commercial electricity at roughly €0.18/kWh, on-site solar in Costești typically pays back in about 5.9 years on a self-consumption basis.

Take a representative 100 kWp array on a mid-sized warehouse or factory roof in Costești. At the local specific yield of 1,212 kWh/kWp it generates about 121,200 kWh a year. With roughly 70% self-consumed against a €0.18/kWh tariff, that is around €15,271 saved annually.
Against an installed cost near €90,000, the system pays back in about 5.9 years and delivers in the region of €291,775 of net savings over a 25-year life — while avoiding roughly 42.4 tonnes of CO₂ every year.
These figures scale with roof size: many local logistics and manufacturing sites carry 250–1,000 kWp of usable roof, multiplying both the savings and the value of the lead.
Which buildings to target in Costești
The strongest commercial solar prospects in Costești share three traits: large unshaded roofs, high daytime electricity demand, and a single decision-maker. SolarScout surfaces these automatically, with roof-area estimates and Google Solar panel-count data where available.
Priority building types: warehouse, factory, logistics & distribution, retail park, cold storage and agricultural & food processings. Manufacturing Plants stand out for continuous process loads and large structural roofs.
Why prospect solar in Costești
Romania’s growing industrial base and solid southern irradiance make commercial rooftops — especially in the southern plains — strong candidates for solar prospecting.
For a prospecting team, that combination of resource and tariff means outreach in Costești converts on economics, not green sentiment — the payback case stands on its own.
