Funding Your Solar

Flexible finance solutions for commercial renewable energy projects.

Commercial solar funding for your business

Investing in commercial solar shouldn’t be limited by upfront capital requirements. Silvercrest Energy Group offers a range of flexible funding and finance solutions, enabling your organisation to reduce energy costs while choosing a funding model that aligns with your financial strategy.

Whether you prefer to fund your project through capital investment, spread the cost over time with flexible finance, or keep the installation off your balance sheet through a Solar Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), we’ll tailor a solution to suit your cash flow, operational requirements and long-term business objectives.

Our specialists provide detailed financial modelling, including projected energy savings, return on investment, payback periods and carbon reductions, giving you the confidence to make informed decisions backed by clear commercial data.

Working with trusted finance partners, Silvercrest Energy Group makes commercial solar investment accessible, financially viable and straightforward for businesses across the UK.

1

CapEx

A Capital Expenditure (CapEx) purchase allows your organisation to invest in and own the solar PV system from day one. As the asset owner, your business benefits from all the renewable electricity generated, maximising long-term energy cost savings and return on investment throughout the system’s operational life. This option is ideal for organisations looking to invest capital in long-term infrastructure while retaining full ownership and control of their renewable energy asset.

PPA

A Solar Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) enables your organisation to generate renewable electricity on site without the need for upfront capital investment. A funding partner finances, owns, operates and maintains the commercial solar PV system, while your business simply purchases the electricity it generates at a competitive, pre-agreed rate that is typically lower than standard grid electricity prices.

This funding model helps reduce operational energy costs, improve cash flow, support ESG and Net Zero objectives, and preserve capital for investment in your core business, all without taking ownership of the solar asset.

Leasing

A commercial solar lease allows your organisation to spread the cost of a solar PV system over an agreed term through fixed monthly or quarterly payments. This provides access to renewable energy with minimal upfront capital investment, helping to preserve cash flow while delivering immediate reductions in energy costs.

Leasing enables your business to benefit from predictable repayments, improved budget certainty and long-term operational savings, making it an ideal solution for organisations looking to invest in renewable energy without a significant initial capital outlay.
