Our take
Sunsave, founded in 2022, is on a mission to make solar energy and battery storage accessible to the mass market by removing the upfront costs and providing 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 installing rooftop solar and storage - the ~£10k typical upfront cost and long payback period - allowing customers to save on their energy bills from day one. This is wrapped into a hassle-free service, with installation, monitoring, and maintenance included, which also enables households to sell excess electricity and participate in the smart grid.
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. Sunsave is the first company to bring the tied and tested solar subscription business model to the UK and in doing so, will build the next green unicorn.
