Finance options
Self-financed capital expenditure offers the best lifetime returns. However, we can connect you to leading providers of alternative financing options.
SCROLL
CAPEX
Why give away your returns? CAPEX yields strong returns on investment, improves operating profits whilst tax relief is available. This option allows you to enjoy all the significant surplus returns.
PPA
This option is a long term 20-40-year lease. You buy the renewable electricity at a discount to market rate and the investor pays upfront for installation and takes investment return.
Lease to Own
This option is a medium term 15-year lease and is a manufacturer lease scheme that’s fully maintained and designed to be cash positive. Its shorter term compared to a PPA option and the asset is gifted at end of lease.
Green Loan
This option is a medium term 7-10-year loan. Designed to be annually cash positive, the majority of savings in the loan period are used to repay capital and interest.

Renewable technologies can require a significant initial investment. However, they deliver on your organisation’s climate agenda. They provide strong financial returns to your business and allows you to gain resilience and energy independence.
Now more than ever, it is a great time to invest yourself via CAPEX. To own a durable production asset that yields impressive long-term surplus returns to support your climate contribution, whilst generate surplus cash and operating profits for your long-term business and employees’ future. With solar PV, you gain long-lasting control of energy costs with a 25-year average lifetime energy costs of around 4p/kWh. Compare this to the bi-annual energy re-brokerage lottery and estimated equivalent 25-year average of 20p/kWh and the benefit is clear.

If you do not wish to utilise your cash, but want to buy renewable electricity generated on-site, save money and gain zero upfront cost green credentials, a power purchase agreement (PPA) is one of our solutions.
Subject to suitability criteria, we have a portfolio of leading energy efficiency investors willing to offer a free, fully maintained system for a 20 to 40-year lease period. You grant rights to the investor to build and maintain the renewable asset on-site and you buy the power as a preference to buying from the National Grid.
You agree to a discounted initial price and a price increase mechanism with the investor. The investor funds this via pension pots, high-net worth individuals or retail market trusts, and then takes a financial return.

Subject to suitability criteria, Fronius is willing to offer a free, fully maintained system for a usually 15-year lease period.
You grant the right to Fronius to build and maintain the renewable asset on your site and you agree to a monthly repayment from your savings, designed to leave your business cash positive. At the end of the lease, the asset is gifted so you continue to enjoy future savings and carbon offsetting.
The funds come from Fronius, and so require the system to have Fronius inverters. Fronius takes a financial return.
