The challenge
Retail estates face compounding energy costs across dozens or hundreds of locations. Customer expectations and investor ESG scrutiny are tightening at the same time, so the estate needs a programme that reduces cost and produces evidence at portfolio scale, not site by site.
How Saber addresses it
Retail sites with suitable roof area and consistent daytime demand are natural candidates for Solar PV, with BESS assessed at feasibility. Saber profiles the estate as a single programme, scoring every site on its own half-hourly consumption profile and its roof asset rather than working from a generic template. The PPA structure means no capital allocation, and the estate reports through one commercial relationship.
