Croydon Community Energy is looking for local buildings to join our growing network of community solar projects. By hosting panels, you’ll be helping create a cleaner, greener Croydon — and saving money on your energy bills at the same time.
🌞 Save money from day one – our solar electricity is cheaper than power from the grid, so you’ll start seeing savings as soon as the panels are generating. And because our prices only rise with inflation, your savings grow year after year.
🏠 No upfront costs – we cover the full cost of installation through community investment — funded by local people who want to see more renewable energy in Croydon. We also take care of maintenance and monitoring, so there’s nothing for you to manage or budget for.
🌍 Cut your carbon footprint – hosting solar helps your organisation directly reduce emissions and play an active role in tackling the climate emergency locally. It’s a visible commitment to sustainability that your community can be proud of.
🔌 Simple and flexible – you only pay for the solar power you use, and your existing electricity supply stays in place for anything extra you need.
✨ Community-powered energy – all our projects are owned and run by local people through a community benefit society, keeping the profits and the benefits right here in Croydon.
