Salary benchmarks
Our take
Sunsave, founded in 2022, is on a mission to make solar energy and battery storage accessible to the mass market. It removes the upfront costs and provides a subscription service that takes care of everything - from installation to maintenance - so that more UK households can save on their energy bills.
The model is designed to remove the biggest barrier to solar and storage adoption - the ~£10k typical upfront cost and long payback period - allowing customers to save on their energy bills from day one. They do so through Sunsave's all-in-one subscription that includes finance, installation, monitoring, maintenance, and a Virtual Power Plant, helping them get the most out of their system.
The green company has already attracted the attention of blue-chip VC funds such as Norrsken, the UK Department of Energy, and household name entrepreneurs, including Michael Spencer and Stuart Rose, raising ~£11M in funding and growing to ~30 FTEs. This will be used to fund its expansion into complementary products such as EV chargers and heat pumps alongside tariff optimisation and energy insight software. It's also the first UK company to achieve full FCA authorisation for a solar power platform, as it brings the tried and tested solar subscription business model to the UK. In doing so, it hopes to build the country's first decentralised home energy platform and revolutionise households' relationship with energy.
