FINANCING A LED LIGHTING SYSTEM
Despite the many benefits of moving toward commercial LED lighting for your school there is one element that causes hesitation, the cost! To help schools make their Lighting dreams a reality, SLS ltd provides fully compliant funding options to help.
Given that the payback time of most energy generation and reduction projects is much lower than the expected system life, projects can be financed such that the overall cashflow profile is positive, or at least neutral, in the early years.
We have developed relationships with many finance partners providing different forms of energy-efficiency finance. All have one aim: to help businesses and public sector organisations to implement sustainable business strategies that deliver a competitive advantage at no up-front cost.

*A Hire Purchase Agreement is an agreement where a lender provides you equipment that you can use (hire) a fixed term and fixed payment amount. At the end of the term you have the right to buy the equipment for a set amount (typically £100.00 + VAT). Even though you don’t technically own it until the final payment, it is considered a notional sale so you recognise the equipment on your balance sheet and can depreciate it.
