01 / Property · land · development
Creative Energy helps commercial property owners and developers find new income, value, and cost savings in their buildings and land. We combine property expertise with the right energy technologies and specialist partners.
NETWORK / Connected market
We start by understanding the client and their property. Once an opportunity looks viable, we bring in the operator, funder or network partner best placed to move the project forward.
Depending on the property, projects can be structured through a PPA, asset finance, direct investment or a joint venture.
02 / The opportunity
The opportunity might be on the roof, behind the meter, in the grid connection, across the car park or in the land itself.
We start with the property, not a predetermined technology. Then we test what is physically, electrically and commercially realistic, so owners can focus on the ideas worth pursuing.
03 / Why now
How a site is connected, who adopts the network and what can be generated on site can materially change development costs, viability and asset value.
Understanding power is now part of understanding the deal.
04 / Opportunity routes
The technology follows the opportunity. The commercial model may change, but the first test is always the same: does it fit the property and work for the people responsible for it?
Depending on the property, solar and battery storage can be funded through a PPA, asset finance, direct investment or a joint venture.
We look at how the network is connected and adopted, with the aim of securing an asset value offer, reducing power costs and improving development viability.
We connect suitable car parks and destination sites with rapid-charging operators, then help shape a lease or profit-share agreement.
We assess logistics, depot and roadside sites for e-HGV charging, focusing on location, access, dwell time and available power.
We identify sites that could support waste storage and processing, then connect owners with a specialist biomass-fuel operator.
For suitable land, we assess funded wind development or a long-term lease, taking wind resource, planning, ecology, access and grid connection into account.
FIELD / A wider view
05 / How we work
We begin with the portfolio, narrow down the strongest opportunities, find the right partners and help move the best options towards a deal.
We look at the sites, rooftops, land, development plans, power position and what matters most to the owner.
We test what is physically and electrically viable, including demand, access, restrictions and risk.
We compare the commercial structures that could work, from leases and PPAs to joint ventures and asset value offers.
We bring in the operator, funder, supplier or network partner best suited to the project.
We negotiate the terms and set out clear next steps around the property and the owner’s priorities.
06 / Selected projects
These projects show how an opportunity can be assessed, aligned with the right energy technologies and partners, and progressed through a commercial agreement to delivery.
Together they span rooftop solar, battery storage, solar carports, and multi-site ground-mounted solar delivery.
With a large roof available, the opportunity for solar was clear. The challenge was finding a solution that worked with the roof itself. This project paired a 1 MWp rooftop solar system with a 1 MW lead-acid battery. Bespoke aluminium mounting pots were used to overcome the roof constraint and enable installation. The completed system delivers measured annual savings of £180,000 and more than 130 tonnes of CO₂ each year.
Where performance figures are forecast or modelled, this is clearly stated.
07 / Confidence to act
Energy markets move quickly. We help property owners make sense of them, rule out weak ideas early and have better-informed conversations with the right specialists.
We begin with the property, the development plan and what the owner wants to achieve.
We compare the available deal structures before recommending an option.
We introduce specialists only when their offer genuinely fits the opportunity.
Tell us about a single property, a development or a wider portfolio. We will look at the site first and identify where energy could create new income, value, or savings.
