FAQs
Quick answers
How can you cut the bill before solar goes in?
We review your current electricity contract against the tariffs available to your business. If a better deal saves money, we move you whilst your solar is designed. The saving depends on your contract and any exit fees.
Is the PPA really £0 upfront?
Yes, on sites that qualify. INICIO funds and owns the system, Solar4Business installs and maintains it, and you buy the power at an agreed rate for up to 25 years.
Do we need to own the building?
Owners can use any route. Leaseholders usually need the landlord’s consent for solar, and can switch their contract straight away.
Do we need planning permission?
Usually not. Rooftop solar on business premises is permitted development in England and Scotland, with exceptions such as listed buildings. Solar4Business confirms this at survey.
