    Frequently asked questions

    Do I need to be a solar expert?

    No. You make the introduction and we handle all the technical and commercial work.

    What makes a qualified referral?

    A genuine commercial, industrial, or agricultural business considering solar or battery storage that we have not already engaged.

    Do cash and PPA projects both qualify?

    Yes. You earn commission on the cash project value in both cases, whether the client pays cash or signs a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA).

    When and how do I get paid?

    Commission is paid per the terms of your channel partner agreement, against your invoice.

    Is there an agreement?

    Yes. Partners sign a short channel partner agreement that sets out the commission and terms.
