Cutting the up-front costs of solar for business

William Lancaster of Ember Energy

With electricity prices still double what they were two years ago, businesses across Lancashire are understandably concerned about soaring energy bills.

While solar panels might seem like an attractive option to combat these
rising costs, the initial expenditure can be daunting.

If you’re looking to stabilise your expenses and futureproof your business against rising costs without an initial capital investment, there are solutions available.

Power Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) allow you to enjoy the benefits of solar power without any upfront costs.

Essentially, we can purchase and install your solar panels at no cost to you.

You’ll then be able to buy the electricity generated from them for as little as 8p per kWh, much cheaper than the rate from local suppliers.

This means you can start saving on energy costs, immediately protect
yourself from fluctuating energy prices and contribute to sustainability goals without the financial burden of an initial investment.

Not only does a PPA help reduce your monthly electricity bills, but it also shields you from the volatility of conventional energy prices. With
fixed, lower rates, you’ll always know what’s coming, so you can confidently manage your energy budget and plan for the future.

At Ember Energy Lancashire, our PPA provides a win-win solution for
businesses of all sizes. Don’t wait until grid space becomes scarce. Secure your grid connections and futureproof your business today.
