Questions about fully funded commercial solar
The questions we get asked most, answered plainly. If yours isn't here, send it to us directly and we'll answer it on a call.
How is it free? What's the catch?
No catch, but it's fair to ask. An energy investor pays for the system and owns it, because they make their return selling you the power over the long term. You buy that power at a lower rate than your current supplier charges, and there is no cost to you for our involvement. We'll walk you through the full terms on a call.
We rent our building. Does that rule us out?
No. Leased sites go ahead regularly, and landlords are often receptive. It depends on your lease, so it's worth a quick conversation rather than assuming it's a dead end.
Is our site too small?
Possibly not, and it costs nothing to find out. Where a site is too small for a funded system, buying outright often still stacks up. We'd rather look than have you rule yourself out.
What happens at the end of the agreement?
The rights and title to the system pass to you. You own it outright, and the electricity it carries on generating costs you nothing.
Our roof would need work first.
There are no roof repair or upgrade costs to you. The roof is checked for suitability before anything begins, and where remedial work is needed it can usually be built into the agreement.
What will it actually save us?
Businesses typically cut their electricity bills by up to 30% once solar is in. Your actual figure depends on your roof, your usage and your current tariff, so send us your details and we'll come back with a number for your building specifically.
Do you need to visit our site first?
No. We start remotely, so you get indicative numbers before anyone comes out and before you commit to anything.
We already have solar, or we're tied into an energy contract.
Neither is usually a blocker. Solar sits alongside your existing supply rather than replacing it, and battery storage or expansions can be looked at on their own. Worth raising on the call.
