Councils & Public Bodies FAQ

Clarity for organisations exporting surplus renewable energy

Do you work with individual households?

No. We partner directly with councils and public bodies at an organisational level, not with residents or individual households.

Do you install or maintain solar panels?

We focus purely on market access, optimisation, and transparent reporting. Installations and maintenance remain with your existing suppliers.

How do councils benefit financially?

By exporting surplus renewable generation into the market at favourable rates. We manage the full process from trading to settlement so returns are dependable.
