Could Amazon Fulfilment Centre (EDI4), Dunfermline go solar?
This is one of Scotland's largest sheds. The Amazon fulfilment centre (EDI4) at Dunfermline covers a vast single-span flat warehouse roof — around 78,500 sqm by our outline estimate. Because we've measured it from the building footprint rather than survey data, the figures are approximate: roughly 14,000 panels, about 5.6 MW, and an estimated 2.6–6.9 million kWh a year. A site survey would firm that up.
