Shawton Energy – Our Story

How do we help businesses access cheaper, greener energy?

At Shawton Energy, we help businesses access cheaper, greener energy through innovative, fully funded solar solutions and tailored financing options. Our solar power installations reduce reliance on traditional energy sources, cutting costs and minimising exposure to fluctuating energy prices. With our Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), businesses pay only for the energy they use—no upfront costs required. For those seeking full ownership, our Direct Investment options deliver long-term savings and control.

Additionally, our battery energy storage systems allow businesses to store excess solar energy for later use, reducing grid dependence and further lowering energy bills. This powerful combination of solar and storage helps businesses slash costs, reduce carbon footprints, and meet sustainability goals.

We also guide businesses through available funding and incentives, ensuring access to the most cost-effective green energy solutions. By collaborating closely with each business, we design tailored plans that maximise savings, sustainability, and efficiency.

Backed by AMPYR Distributed Energy

In-House Funding Decisions Made Quickly

Shawton Energy is owned by AMPYR Distributed Energy (ADE), a leading developer of distributed renewable energy projects across the UK and Europe. This relationship strengthens our ability to deliver reliable, long-term energy solutions for commercial and industrial clients.

As part of ADE, we provide a fully turnkey service — from feasibility and design through to installation, optimisation, and ongoing asset management. Our projects are supported by internally funded PPAs, giving businesses access to high-quality onsite renewable systems without the need for upfront capital.

Even with the backing of a larger energy platform, Shawton Energy retains its dedicated team and hands-on approach. Customers continue to work directly with the specialists who design and deliver their systems.

Our ownership structure brings together Shawton’s trusted delivery expertise with ADE’s scale, investment capability, and long-term vision — ensuring every project is dependable, cost-effective, and built for the future.
