Why Dyce

"We've spent years helping businesses get the best deal on the energy they buy. Now we can help you reduce how much you need to buy in the first place."

Dyce has built its reputation on straightforward advice and long-term relationships. We don't overcomplicate things, and we don't vanish after the contract is signed. When we added renewables to what we offer, it was for the same reason we got into energy brokering in the first place because businesses deserve better.

What we offer

Everything you need to generate, store, and use your own energy

Solar PV

Generate your own electricity from the roof you already have. Reduce your bills, protect your business from price rises, and start building an asset that pays for itself.

Battery Storage

Store the electricity you generate and use it when you need it most during peak hours, overnight, or as a backup. Get more from every panel.

EV Charging

Smart charging infrastructure for your fleet or staff powered by your own solar. Practical, cost-effective, and ready for what's coming.

Heat Pumps

Reduce consumption before spending on generation. Smart metering, monitoring and controls. Load-shifting to move demand away from peak rates. Net zero roadmaps for ESG and reporting commitments.

Fully funded solar

Your roof starts paying you back from day one. Not in five years. Day one.

£0 Upfront. Savings from day one

Most businesses assume solar means a large capital commitment. It does not have to. Our fully funded option means your system is installed at no upfront cost. The energy savings cover the finance repayment from day one. When the term ends, the asset is entirely yours.

Ideal for high-consumption businesses that want to act now without tying up capital.

  • No upfront capital required
  • Finance repayment covered by energy savings from day one
  • Short and long-term finance options available
  • Full asset ownership once the finance is repaid
  • No operational disruption during installation
  • Removes the biggest objection before it is raised

Common questions

Things people usually ask

Do I need to own the building?

You do not need to own it outright, but you need either ownership or a long lease (typically 10 years minimum remaining). Tenants can proceed with landlord permission. We will establish this at initial qualification so there are no surprises later.

What size system do I need?

Systems are sized to your roof and your consumption. Installations typically start from 30kW for smaller commercial roofs and can run well into the hundreds of kW. The free survey establishes both roof capacity and the optimal system size based on your energy bills.

How does the funded option work?

The system is financed over an agreed term. The monthly repayment is structured so that your energy savings cover it from day one. No net cost from the outset. At the end of the term, the asset transfers to you outright. No upfront capital, immediate savings, full ownership at the end.

How long does installation take?

Most commercial installations complete in one to three days depending on system size. We plan carefully around your operations so there is no disruption to trading. The Leyton Orient installation at a working stadium was completed on time with no matchday impact.

What happens to the electricity I don't use?

Surplus electricity is either exported to the grid via the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), earning a payment per kWh, or stored in a battery system if one is fitted. Either way, nothing is wasted.

Do you handle everything or just the install?

We manage the whole process: initial assessment, design, planning and grid connection where required, MCS-certified installation, commissioning, and aftercare. You deal with Dyce throughout. Our specialist delivery partner handles the technical work behind the scenes.

What about planning permission?

Most commercial roof-mounted solar falls under permitted development and does not require planning permission. We will confirm during the survey. If permission is needed we manage that process on your behalf.
