Grant Assistance for Businesses

Go Green with Fusion Solar

Government grant funding for commercial solar can significantly reduce project costs, but schemes are often complex, highly specific, and change annually.

To address this, we work with a dedicated grant specialist whose sole role is to identify, secure, and manage funding on behalf of our clients. She previously worked within grant-issuing organisations, giving her direct insight into how applications are assessed and how to structure submissions for higher approval rates.

She manages the entire process to remove the administrative burden:

  • Sourcing: Finding hidden or "invisible" grant pots.
  • Strategy: Interpreting strict eligibility criteria.
  • Application: Completing submissions in line with assessor expectations.

We have seen grants contribute up to 50% of the capital cost in certain cases, with some schemes providing funding from £10,000 upwards. Working with us ensures you benefit from both a professionally designed solar system and the expertise to access funding that might otherwise be missed.

Commercial finance FAQ's

Is my business eligible for the 50% grant funding?

Eligibility depends largely on your location and project readiness. Currently, priority funding is available for businesses in Coventry, Warwickshire, and Staffordshire. Our Grant Specialist will perform a free "eligibility check" to determine exactly which pot of money you qualify for before we start the application.

How does "Match Funding" work—do I have to pay for the rest?

Most regional grants are "match funded," meaning the government pays up to 50% of the project cost, and your business covers the remaining 50%. However, you do not necessarily need cash reserves for your share. We can arrange 0% upfront finance for your portion, meaning your energy savings can often cover the monthly repayments immediately.

Grant applications are complicated. Do I have to manage the paperwork?

No. This is the biggest barrier for most businesses, which is why we handle it for you. Our dedicated Grant Specialist—who formerly worked for grant-issuing bodies—manages the entire process, from sourcing the right fund to writing the technical submission, ensuring you have the highest possible chance of approval.

How quickly do we need to act to secure funds?

Extremely quickly. Grant pots are allocated on a "first-come, first-served" basis. The current funding round has deadlines approaching in January 2026, with the next window not opening until April or May. We recommend booking your eligibility check immediately to "lock in" your application before the current funds are exhausted.
