Free Solar Panels For Commercial Buildings

Commercial-scale PV systems with no upfront costs

Enjoy reduced energy rates with free solar panels!

Businesses, local authorities and campuses with a minimum roof space of 500 m2 (square meters) can take advantage of preferential energy rates via a solar PV system installed on the property. Our 30-year renewable energy programs provide you with rates of 14p per kWh for the first 15 years with free electricity for the second 15-year period. This is achieved through a Power Purchase Agreement.

A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is essentially a fully-funded reduced energy plan for the client, where the solar company sells specified amounts of energy generated from a PV system (installed on the client’s premises) back to the client at a reduced kWh rate.

A PPA is a legal agreement between the client and the solar company, typically over a 30-year term. The PPA can be transferred to new occupiers should the organisation relocate.
