Powering the Way Forward: making Net Zero a reality with solar energy
Solar is a game-changer for sustainable generation — and behind-the-meter generation is now the strongest hedge a UK business has.
Solar energy is a game-changer when it comes to sustainable and renewable generation. It is no surprise that solar power has become the fastest-growing source of new generation capacity in the UK.
Why solar, and why now
Behind-the-meter generation is the strongest hedge a business has against volatile wholesale prices. Every kilowatt-hour generated and consumed on site is a unit you never buy — at a price fixed for the life of the asset rather than the length of a supply contract.
Getting the sizing right
The most common mistake is oversizing. Solar should be designed against a demand profile that has already been reduced through efficiency measures, otherwise you build and pay for an asset larger than the site needs and export value at a lower rate than you consume it.
Roof, ground and structure
Not every roof is suitable straight away. Structural capacity, age of the covering, plant layout and shading all shape the design. A proper survey resolves those questions before any commitment is made.
Funded delivery
Our model removes the capital barrier entirely. The system is installed with no upfront cost and the repayments come from the savings it produces, so the business is cash-positive from the start.
