COMMERCIAL ENERGY ASSETS · ENGINEERED AS ONE SYSTEM

The equipmentis only partof the answer.

01 / NOT AN EQUIPMENT LISTTHE WHOLE COMMERCIAL POSITION
ENERGY, COORDINATED.

Most solar and battery quotes are equipment lists. We engineer the whole commercial position: how the site connects, how it’s billed and how the energy asset is traded and run every day afterwards.

Five things change
when the whole site
is engineered together.

The important decisions are not confined to the solar panels or battery. They sit across the bill, the connection, the switchboard, the controls and the way the asset is operated after installation.

01

We model your site before we quote, not after.

We start from your actual meter data and invoices and rebuild a full year of your site’s behaviour. If our model cannot reproduce your real bills, we do not quote.

02

Our quotes get smaller, not bigger.

We show what each additional panel, battery module and kilowatt earns, step by step. If the last part of a system does not pay, we take it out. You see exactly where the value stops.

03

Some of the biggest decisions are free. And they expire.

Decisions made during design and connection can shape what the site pays for years. Many cost nothing to get right, but must be made before the equipment goes in. This is why one party remains responsible from design through ongoing management.

04

A battery can do the work of a grid upgrade.

Where supply is constrained, we can design the system to keep the site operating safely within the connection it already has. That may avoid a network upgrade, a landlord negotiation and their capital cost.

05

The savings are engineered, not promised.

The protections that produce the result are built into the switchboard and hardware in layers. They hold even when the software is not making an active decision. That is what makes the number suitable for a budget or a financier.

02 / HOW WE TALK ABOUT THE NUMBERSCLARITY BEFORE COMMITMENT

A range.
Not a best case.

“We quote a range, not a best case. We tell you what the system won’t fix. And we’ll tell you before you sign if the honest answer is a smaller system, a different fix or nothing at all.”

THE ANSWER, IN PLAIN TERMS.

There is a fair bit of modelling behind this, built over years and across many sites. You get the answer and the reasoning behind it in plain terms. The workings are ours.

No handover
gap.

Powston does not disappear after the system is installed. The person involved in assessing and shaping the system remains close to how it is commissioned, managed and performing against the commercial model.

04 / ANOTHER WAY TO PROCEED

You may not need
to buy it.

We can structure the project so your business pays less than it pays today, with no capital outlay and the market risk sitting with us.
