Frequently Asked Questions

Our service is designed to simplify the solar procurement process for you.

We will work with you to establish your requirements and refine your brief, before sharing it with our network of trusted suppliers. We will then help you to shortlist providers, allowing you to appoint the supplier that best meets your needs.

Our team will be on hand throughout this process to provide impartial advice and guidance, giving you confidence that you are making the right decision.

For more information on the supplier sourcing process, please get in touch.

Our impartial service is provided free of charge to you.

Once you have selected a supplier, we receive a percentage of the contract value as a 'finder's fee'. This is a flat rate with all our suppliers and does not form part of our selection process.

We work with a range of solar businesses with expertise in delivering commercial, domestic and public sector projects. Suppliers have diverse experience and specialisms, so we're able to tailor the shortlist to meet your specific needs.
