Solar as a service – All the benefits, none of the risks
There are many who have roof or ground space that is not optimally utilized but who do not have the opportunity to invest in their own solar cell installation. EnergiEngagemang now offers a financing solution where we design and build a facility which is then owned and operated by Solare Nordic where you buy the electricity at a fixed low price on longer contracts. This means that you as a property owner get all the advantages of a solar cell installation, such as green renewable electricity, a fixed low and predictable electricity price and better environmental classification on your property, without taking any risk or investment cost of your own.
For more information, contact one of our project developers and they will tell you more.
Rent out your roof
Some property owners with large flat roofs, for example warehouse and logistics facilities, often have a low energy consumption in relation to their size. If you also rent out the property to other businesses, it can sometimes be difficult to see the profitability of investing in solar cells. If this is the case, there is instead the option of renting out your roof for a solar cell installation and thus creating a passive income without any work input.
Why solar as a service?
Fixed electricity price for a long time to come
Through a Power Purchase Agreement, PPA agreement, an electricity purchase agreement is concluded where the property owner gets the opportunity to buy the solar electricity that is produced at a fixed price. The agreements are written for 10-15 years and when the agreement expires, the property owner has the opportunity to redeem the facility at a favorable price.
Increased amount of renewable electricity in the system
Sweden has an area of 41 million hectares, of which 3% is built-up or landscaped. A large part of these 1,230,000 hectares consists of roofs, which means enormous opportunities to produce green renewable electricity. Through solar-as-a-service, a prerequisite is created for Sweden to continue the expansion of solar electricity production without having to slow down. A prerequisite for creating a society equipped for the future, without letting the climate bear the cost.
Solar energy makes you independent
Both Sun-as-a-service and the new Rent-out-your-roof service can contribute to the property being certified for sustainability, which can provide the opportunity for green loans as it counts as an energy-saving investment. With the EU’s taxonomy, it can also be used in the company’s accounting and, in summary, increase the value of the property.
