Help for community groups
Empower your community with solar for community groups
Our dedicated offering for community groups is designed to:
- Help you engage with residents and businesses
- Secure bulk buy discounts
- Develop village-scale solar projects.
How we can help
Finding out what is possible
We start with a geospatial analysis of your community which helps you identify the ‘size of the prize’ and gives each household and business an idea of what they could generate and save.
Engaging with your community
We work with you to use this geospatial analysis to raise awareness and interest among households and businesses. This is done through a series of village hall events and online workshops.
Securing bulk-buy discounts
Together, we build a list of every household and business in your community who is interested. We use this demand to secure bulk buy options to get the best prices on solar installations. Community members benefit from the economies of scale, making solar more affordable for everyone.
Developing Community-Scale Projects
Where there is an opportunity to develop a small solar array, we can help you design and build the solar PV, making sure the project meets the unique needs of your community. We provide the support and expertise needed for success.
As with all of our projects, once it is complete, you decide whether:
- To buy the solar PV array
- To buy the electricity the solar array produces on ‘Pay as you go’ basis
