Solar Power Purchase Agreement

Solar with no upfront cost. For businesses across North Wales & beyond.

If your business in Wrexham, Chester, Flintshire, Denbighshire or Shropshire wants to cut energy costs without capital outlay, a Solar Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) could be the answer.

Rawson Solar partners with leading UK PPA providers to fund, install and maintain your commercial solar system — completely free of charge. You simply buy the electricity it generates at a rate well below grid prices.

What is a Solar Power Purchase Agreement?

A Power Purchase Agreement is a finance arrangement that lets your business benefit from solar energy today, without spending a penny on installation.
Here’s how it works: a PPA provider funds the full cost of your commercial solar system and installs it on your premises at no charge. In return, you agree to purchase the electricity it generates at a fixed, discounted rate per kWh — significantly lower than what you’d pay your current energy supplier.

For North Wales businesses facing rising grid costs, it’s one of the most practical routes to long-term energy savings. You keep your capital free for what matters most to your business.

How the process works

We assess your roof, current energy usage, and business requirements at your premises — whether you’re based in Wrexham, Chester, Flintshire or across the wider region.

We produce a bespoke proposal showing your projected savings, carbon reduction, agreed kWh rate, and contract term length.

Once you’re happy, you enter the PPA. No capital outlay, no hidden costs.

Rawson Solar installs your commercial solar array with minimal disruption to your operations.

From day one, you purchase your solar electricity at the agreed low rate instead of paying grid prices.

All servicing, monitoring and maintenance throughout the contract is covered — at no cost to you.

When your PPA term ends, ownership of the solar array transfers to your business. From that point, the electricity it generates is effectively free.
