Sunsave, the UK’s first solar subscription service, has raised £5.4 million seed funding for its mission to make solar power accessible to all UK households.

Founded in 2022 by two friends who met at Oxford University, Alick Dru and Ben Graves, Sunsave aims to demystify the overcomplicated and expensive solar industry amidst soaring energy prices and the ongoing cost-of-living crisis. The business is now authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to provide solar panels and batteries on a subscription model, without subscribers needing to pay a hefty lump sum upfront - a major milestone in Sunsave’s mission.
