Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about funded solar, our funding partners, EV charging, and battery storage.


Funded Solar & PPAs

How does a funded solar PPA work?

Our funding partners cover the full cost of survey, equipment, and installation. You simply pay for the electricity your system generates, at a fixed rate from as low as 11p per kWh, for the length of the agreement.

Is there any upfront cost to me?

No. Under our funded PPA model, there is no capital outlay required from your business.

How is my solar array sized?

We carry out a free site survey and analyse your historic energy usage data, then design an array specifically sized to match your consumption.

Who maintains the system?

Blue Energy Group maintains your system for the full length of the agreement, at no extra cost to you.

Can I purchase a solar system outright instead?

Yes, outright purchase options are available for businesses that prefer to own their system directly. Get in touch to discuss which option suits you best.


Funding Partners

Who funds the PPA agreements?

Our commercial solar PPAs are funded in partnership with SSE and Centrica, two established UK energy companies.

Why does it matter who funds the agreement?

Working with established, well-known funders gives your business long-term security and confidence behind your agreement.


EV Charging

Do you offer EV charging as well as solar?

Yes, in partnership with Blue EV and Energy, we offer funded commercial EV charging infrastructure, which can be combined with your solar agreement.

Can I combine solar and EV charging under one agreement?

Yes, solar and EV charging infrastructure can both be delivered under funded models, and can be combined so your fleet or site charging draws on your own generated power.


Battery Storage (BESS)

What is battery storage and do I need solar to have it?

Battery storage systems store electricity for use later, either from your solar array or from the grid at low-cost periods. It can be installed standalone or combined with solar.

Can battery storage reduce my energy costs even without solar?

Yes, a standalone battery can charge during cheaper off-peak periods and discharge during expensive peak periods, reducing your overall costs even without a solar array.
