With the promise of energy-bill savings, reduced reliance on the grid and a step towards sustainability, most business owners are enthusiastic about the idea of going solar.

That is, until they see the price tag.

For SMEs in Australia, a commercial solar system can cost upwards of $10,000. For larger facilities or businesses adding storage, that figure can exceed $50,000.

So, how can the average business justify that kind of investment?

Simple: you’re already spending the money – just without the benefits of renewable energy.

A smarter way to use your existing energy spend

Smart Ease Payment Plans were designed to remove the upfront cost barrier of switching to solar.

With a $0 upfront Smart Ease Payment Plan, your business can enjoy the benefits of solar straight away, paying for the system over time through manageable monthly instalments. In many cases, these repayments are less than the savings on your energy bills, making the investment cash-flow positive from day one.

Instead of a large upfront cost, you simply replace part of your existing energy spend with monthly repayments. The difference is that, with this model, you’re investing in your own clean energy asset rather than your energy provider’s profits.
