Smart Ease payment solutions
The easy way to start saving.
When it comes to cutting energy costs and decarbonising your operations, choosing solar and energy-efficiency equipment makes sense. But the upfront cost can put these opportunities out of reach.
That’s why we offer payment solutions from Smart Ease, industry specialists for over 10 years.
Smart Ease’s competitive Payment Plan terms enable your business to pay for equipment over time – with £0 to pay upfront.

A helping hand for your cash flow
When you buy equipment on a Payment Plan, savings on your energy bills can often add up to more than the instalments for your new equipment – which puts cash back in your pocket.
Or if you choose to enter into a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), you could enjoy lower energy costs, without the headache of maintaining, insuring and updating your equipment.
