As a social housing landlord, you have a unique opportunity to enhance the sustainability and affordability of the homes you manage.
Why Invest in Renewable Energy for Social Housing?
As a social housing landlord, you have a unique opportunity to enhance the sustainability and affordability of the homes you manage. By integrating renewable energy systems, you can offer affordable, low-carbon energy to tenants while reducing operational costs and meeting local and national sustainability targets.
Sustainable Energy for Affordable Homes
At Nova Solar Renewables, we provide social housing landlords with sustainable energy solutions designed to reduce energy bills, improve tenant satisfaction, and support long-term environmental goals. Our tailored renewable energy systems—such as solar PV, battery storage, and EV charging—offer significant financial and environmental benefits for both landlords and tenants.
Our Social Housing Energy Solutions
Solar PV Systems
Solar power is an effective way to generate low-cost electricity, directly reducing energy bills for tenants. Our solar PV systems are designed to work efficiently for any property type—whether you’re upgrading existing homes or developing new ones. Solar energy can provide immediate savings for tenants while helping meet sustainability goals for your portfolio.
Battery Storage
Combine solar energy with battery storage to ensure tenants have access to affordable electricity even when the sun isn’t shining. Battery storage stores surplus energy produced during the day, which can be used at night or during peak periods, helping tenants save more on their electricity bills and making properties more energy efficient.
EV Charging Stations
With the rise of electric vehicles, providing EV charging stations at your properties can enhance their appeal and support tenants who own electric cars. Offering EV charging facilities can also future-proof your properties and improve your green credentials as a landlord.
Energy Efficiency Consulting
We offer energy efficiency assessments to help identify areas where you can reduce energy consumption across your housing portfolio. From improving insulation to upgrading heating systems, we provide practical solutions that will lower both running costs and carbon emissions.
Key Benefits for Social Housing Landlords
