Not convinced that solar is the right choice for your business?

Solar isn't just beneficial for your wallet, you're also supporting a clean energy future!

We understand that a solar system is a big investment. However, a solar system for a business is the perfect solution to offsetting your daytime electricity usage. Most businesses consume 80% of their base load during sunlight hours, so it just makes sense that your business should be benefitting from solar generation. Solar is an investment that returns both financial and environmental benefits.

For example, a typical small commercial system in Sydney would generate each year:

$10,000

in estimated savings

40 MWh

of solar energy produced

13,765 kg

of burnt coal avoided

729

Equivalent of trees planted

Estimate based on a 20kW array with 85% self- consumption and 15% feed-in to the network grid with rates set as per Ausgrid network – Origin Energy’s Solar Boost plan. Solar system performance based on 10% performance derating and panels angled at 25 degrees tilt with a direct North facing array.

There are three key financing options to consider when investing in a solar solution.

Solar Financing Solutions

Power Purchasing Agreement

Our Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) contract is a great option for businesses that want to take advantage of solar energy without having to own or outlay any capital for the system.

A PPA is a contract to purchase supplementary solar energy at a fixed rate which is less than what you would be paying from your normal retailer.

Equipment Lease Arrangement

The solar lease option eliminates the upfront capital outlay for the solar system and instead stages the payback costs over 5-10 year period. The benefit of this option is that you can balance your energy savings and loan repayments which allows your business to be cash flow positive outcome from day one.

We can introduce you to one of our preferred partners that can offer low cost financing options to help get you started.

Capital Investment Funding Option

For businesses with access to low-cost capital or even government small business grants, purchasing a solar system as a part of your annual capital works can deliver the fastest return on investment.

This method allows you to take immediate ownership of all associated system assets.
