Solutions to support your business
Standard Bank has been actively engaging with businesses, property owners and suppliers to understand the impact of power outages and has developed effective solutions and funding packages to alleviate the pressures. They have successfully financed various projects, ranging from grid-tied solar systems to fully integrated setups with backup power. Standard Bank’s tailored asset finance solutions cater to the diverse alternative energy needs of businesses. For more complex requirements, such as hydro and biomass solutions, they offer structured funding solutions tailored to your specific needs, acknowledging that a one-size-fits-all approach isn’t always ideal.
Empowering informed choices
Through years of experience, the bank has learned that navigating the renewable energy market can be overwhelming for businesses like yours. To streamline the process and empower you to make well-informed decisions, they have introduced two distinctive platforms specifically targeted at solar PV energy solutions:
PowerPulse is designed for commercial clients and serves as a connecting platform that links clients with preferred credible operators in the renewable energy market. It enables commercial businesses to explore and implement suitable renewable energy solutions.
LookSee is a comprehensive one-stop shop tailored for homeowners and small to medium-sized businesses seeking enhanced cost-efficiency and energy optimisation in their properties. It provides customised solutions to help you save money and achieve greater energy efficiency.
Real customer success stories
Take inspiration from Sakhumzi Maqubela, the owner of Sakhumzi Restaurant, who stated, “Any business wants to cut costs. We’ve been able to save up to 25k per month. Solar PV puts power back into our own hands and money in my pocket.” Not only has Standard Bank made it possible for Sakhumzi to keep the lights on 24/7, but they’ve also enabled him to reduce his monthly electricity overhead, saving his company about R300,000 in a year.
