Your questions, answered

Cost, funding, planning, listed buildings, savings and maintenance — the honest answers.

Common questions

Is there really no upfront cost?
On a fully funded PPA, yes — £0 capital. We fund, own and maintain the system; you buy the solar power at a rate below the grid and save from day one.
Will installation disrupt my trade?
No. We schedule around opening hours and most installs take a few days. The bar keeps running.
Can you put solar on a listed pub?
Often, yes. Many listed and conservation-area pubs can have discreet or rear-roof panels. We manage the planning and listed-building consent.
How much could I save?
Many pubs significantly cut daytime electricity costs — the funded rate is often around half the grid rate. Your exact saving depends on daytime usage; we confirm it at survey.
What about maintenance?
On a PPA it's fully included. If you buy outright we offer monitoring and servicing plans to keep performance up.
Do I get paid for extra power?
Yes — the Smart Export Guarantee pays you for surplus solar exported to the grid. We set this up at handover.
What happens at the end of a PPA?
You'll typically have options to extend, buy the system at a reduced value, or have it removed. It's all set out before you sign.
Which areas do you cover?
Pubs in towns across the UK. Share your postcode and we'll confirm coverage and yield.
