Why Shawton Energy Solar Partnerships Are Different?
Flexible. Transparent. Built on Trust.
If you’ve worked with traditional solar developers, you’ve probably experienced slow communication, inflexible terms, or a one-size-fits-all approach. At Shawton Energy, we’ve built something better.
We offer a true partnership model, one that’s agile, fully accountable, and backed by serious funding. Everything is handled in-house, so you know exactly where you stand, and your clients get a best-in-class experience from day one to year twenty.

How Shawton Compares
 | Traditional Developer / Funder | Shawton Energy |
---|---|---|
Funding Certainty | External or third-party funded, approvals often slow or unclear. | In-house funding backed by Lazard Asset Management, fast, secure, and reliable. |
Project Scale Focus | Only interested in large-scale or “easy” projects. | Open to mid-size, multi-site or complex installs. |
Delivery Model | Outsourced contractors, little control. | Fully in-house, turnkey delivery from feasibility to installation. |
Response Time | Weeks for proposals, multiple approvals. | Fast turnaround with direct commercial and technical contact. |
Flexibility | Rigid contracts and standardised terms. | Tailored deal structures for each client, with clear partner input. |
Accountability | Multiple handovers, limited visibility. | One team, full lifecycle responsibility, no middlemen. |
Partner Communication | Poor updates, partner left out of the loop. | You stay informed, recognised and respected throughout. |
Compliance Support | Limited or generic reporting. | Aligned with SECR, Scope 2, TCFD, SBTi, Net Zero and ESG frameworks. |
Reputation Risk | Unreliable delivery can damage your credibility. | Our team protects your relationship through trusted, proven delivery. |
