Funded LED lighting that cuts carbon and electricity bills, with zero upfront cost.
We upgrade schools, academy trusts and commercial estates to LED lighting and smart wireless controls through a fully funded lease. Fixed payments are spread over the term and largely offset by the energy you save.

We survey your site and build the business case: energy, carbon and cost savings set against the funding payments.
Fully funded install
No capital outlay. The upgrade is leased, with fixed quarterly payments that make budgeting simple.
Savings offset payments
Energy use drops from day one, and the savings offset the payments throughout the term.
Keep 100% of savings
After the term you keep every pound saved for the rest of the lighting's 20+ year life.
School projects are delivered through a DfE-approved framework under the IFRS16 Maintained Schools Finance Lease Class Consent 2024. All funding is subject to status.
