Renewable Energy Loans

It’s not just the energy crisis that has people focusing on improving the energy efficiency of their homes.  Almost a quarter of carbon emissions is generated by households across the UK.  For homeowners keen to reduce the carbon footprint of their home, investing in renewable energy generating technology is key.

Our Renewable Energy Loans are available to homeowners to spread the cost of installing solar panels, battery storage systems, air source and ground source heat pumps, or other technologies that generate green electricity.
