From Solar & Storage to Infrastructure Delivery: The Value of Bespoke Precast Concrete Solutions
05 October 2026
Showcasing custom-made concrete products for the power, infrastructure and utilities sectors.
Following a successful appearance at Solar & Storage Live 2026, Ibstock have been highlighting the growing role bespoke precast concrete solutions play in supporting critical infrastructure projects across the UK.
The event provided an opportunity to showcase the wide range of solutions we supply to the power and energy sector, including our ability to design and manufacture custom-made precast concrete products to meet specific project requirements.
As the demand for renewable energy, EV charging infrastructure and utility upgrades continues to grow, project teams are increasingly looking for efficient, durable and cost-effective construction solutions. Bespoke precast concrete products can help meet these challenges while supporting faster installation and improved programme certainty.
Supporting Infrastructure Projects with Bespoke Precast Concrete
With more than 35 years of experience delivering bespoke concrete solutions, we work closely with customers to develop products tailored to the exact needs of their project. Our bespoke precast capabilities can support a wide variety of applications, including:
- Solar panel foundations and ballast units
- EV charger bases
- Electrical equipment plinths
- Utility infrastructure foundations
- Cabinet and kiosk bases
- Equipment housings and protection units
- Custom foundations and support structures
- Project-specific concrete components manufactured to customer designs
Whether supporting energy generation, utility upgrades or wider infrastructure developments, bespoke precast concrete provides the flexibility needed to accommodate unique equipment specifications, site conditions and installation requirements.
Helping Deliver Renewable Energy Infrastructure
One of the key themes discussed at Solar & Storage Live 2026 was the continued growth of solar and energy storage schemes across the UK. Ground-mounted solar installations require safe, secure and durable foundations capable of supporting equipment over the long term. Through our bespoke manufacturing service, we can produce concrete foundation solutions tailored to individual project requirements, helping contractors and installers achieve efficient and reliable deployment on site.
The same approach can be applied across a wide range of infrastructure projects where standard products may not fully meet operational or technical requirements.
Designed Around Your Project Requirements
No two infrastructure projects are identical. That's why flexibility is a key advantage of bespoke precast concrete. By designing and manufacturing products to suit customer requirements, project teams can benefit from:
- Reduced on-site construction activity
- Improved consistency and quality control
- Faster installation compared with traditional construction methods
- Solutions tailored to specific equipment and site conditions
- Greater programme certainty through off-site manufacture
- From one-off installations to larger production runs, bespoke precast concrete provides a practical and efficient way to deliver infrastructure assets with confidence.
