You completely own the solution and all the benefits thereof. You will be told upfront exactly what you need to pay—there are no hidden fees!

All our solutions come with our zero risk policy; we offer a triple-back insurance solution so you can sleep soundly at night.

Measure

Our independent third party metering provider installs smart meters to measure your current electricity usage. This ensures we design a bespoke system to best suit your electricity needs, and your usage is verified by an independent third party.

Design

Our in-house engineering department provides complete electrical and mechanical design services to ensure the best possible solution for the client, relating to correctly sizing the solution and seamless implementation onto and into current infrastructure.

Procure

While the pricing of a system is important, we never compromise on quality. We only source from Tier 1 technology providers from across the globe. Given the size and volume of systems we have installed and are busy installing, we are able to pass on the benefits of scale in pricing and support to our customers.

Install

We provide a turn-key construction service through in-house or verified and accredited third party providers, where we provide one point of contact and responsibility throughout the entire installation process.

Operate and maintain

We provide operational and maintenance services over the lifetime of the system. Our remote monitoring services ensure that we detect and correct the system pro-actively, thereby ensuring that the system is always operating to its maximum efficiency.
