Solar Finance
Solar PV Asset Finance
ASC provides access to Solar PV Asset Finance solutions for commercial customers, so a system can be installed without a single upfront payment.
Commercial Solar Finance
For businesses, Asset Finance spreads the cost of a Solar PV installation over an agreed period rather than requiring capital upfront. This can allow a project to proceed without competing with other investment priorities.
We introduce you to finance providers who assess the project and your circumstances, and we help you compare the routes available.
Important Information
ASC does not set rates or terms. We do not quote APRs, repayment amounts or savings figures — those are provided by the finance provider following a proper assessment. Finance is always subject to status and eligibility.

Expert Guide
Commercial Solar PV Asset Finance Guide
Commercial Solar PV Asset Finance can allow an eligible business to spread the cost of an installation rather than paying the full capital cost upfront. The finance agreement and the Solar project should be considered together.
What asset finance means
Asset finance is a funding route for eligible commercial customers. The provider determines rates, terms, acceptance criteria and any applicable conditions.
The business should understand the total repayment commitment, ownership structure and any end-of-term obligations before proceeding.
Match funding to the project
Finance should be considered alongside the proposed Solar system, expected electricity use, project timescales and the organisation's wider capital priorities.
The objective is to make sure the funding structure is compatible with how the business expects to operate the asset.
Compare the alternatives
Commercial projects may be able to consider outright purchase, Solar PPA or asset finance. Each route creates different responsibilities for ownership, payments, maintenance and future decisions.
Comparisons should use the same project assumptions so the differences between funding routes are clear.
Read the provider terms carefully
Finance is subject to provider assessment and eligibility. Any figures shown in a proposal should be checked against the final provider agreement before a decision is made.
