The strategies

Every strategy, explained

Explore the ways to deploy solar and storage — each matched to a different goal, from pure savings to full energy independence.

The simplest way to reduce your electricity costs

The most effective way to lower your electricity bill is to buy less electricity from the grid. Self-consumption is the foundation of every successful energy cost reduction strategy. By reducing the amount of electricity your business purchases from the grid, it delivers immediate savings on its own while creating the platform for more advanced optimisation strategies, such as battery arbitrage and demand shaving, to unlock even greater value.

Ideal for

  • ✓Businesses looking to reduce electricity costs.
  • ✓Operations with high daytime energy use.

How to fund it

Three ways to fund it — pick what suits your balance sheet

Outright Purchase

Own the system from day one for the strongest lifetime returns. You capture every rand of savings, claim the full Section 12B tax allowance, and typically reach payback in 3–5 years.

Benefits

  • Maximum savings & ROI.
  • Full ownership from day one.
  • Section 12B tax benefit.
5–10 year term

Power Lease Agreement (PLA)

Spread the cost over fixed monthly payments while you start saving from month one. At the end of the term the system is yours — ownership without the upfront outlay.

Benefits

  • Predictable monthly payments.
  • Off-balance-sheet financing.
  • Ownership at end of term.
  • Immediate net savings.
  • Maintenance & monitoring included.
10–20 year term

Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)

We design, fund, install and maintain the system on your roof at zero upfront cost. You simply buy the clean power it generates — at a tariff below your current grid rate.

Benefits

  • No upfront capital.
  • Off-balance-sheet financing.
  • Immediate net savings.
  • Maintenance & monitoring included.

How it works

From assessment to savings in weeks

A simple, transparent process — from first conversation to ongoing savings.

01

Discovery Meeting

We start with a discovery meeting to understand your energy requirements and gather the basic information we need to put a preliminary proposal together.

Free. No obligation.
02

Preliminary Offer

We use our gathered information to build a preliminary proposal that outlines the right technical solution for your site, what you can expect to save, and how the deal could be structured.

Delivered within 1–2 weeks.
03

Due-Diligence

We conduct a site visit, log your load profile, and carry out structural assessments — everything needed to finalise the system design, validate your existing infrastructure, and lock in accurate final costings.

3–4 weeks.
04

Final Design & Offer

With due diligence complete, we issue a final binding offer and contracts for your review — giving you full confidence that the technical and commercial terms are exactly as expected before you commit.

No fine print.
05

Construction & Commissioning

We order equipment, mobilise on site, and manage the full build — keeping the project on time and on budget from start to finish.

Turnkey delivery.
06

Monitoring & Operations

Once commissioned and rigorously tested, our team continuously monitors and maintains the system to ensure it delivers optimal performance throughout its operational lifespan.

Ongoing support.
