Independent consultancy services from Arc Renewables

Most renewable energy advice comes from people who profit from the outcome they recommend. Installers earn from installations. PPA providers earn from PPAs. Arc Renewables earns from the fee and nothing else. That independence is what commercial property owners, logistics operators, developers, and institutional investors get when they work with us: honest feasibility, grid connection advice that serves your project, and procurement support that puts your interests ahead of any supplier’s margin.

Why Arc?

Arc’s consultancy is genuinely independent. We do not earn commissions from the contractors we recommend, the equipment we specify, or the funders we introduce. Every recommendation is shaped by what works for your project and your balance sheet not by what earns Arc a margin downstream.
The RICS accreditation matters because it signals the professional standards framework that institutional buyers require. Property funds, REITs, and procurement-governed organisations can engage Arc without the governance risk that comes with unregulated consultants.

Questions clients ask before engaging.

Arc's feasibility studies start at £1,500 for a single smaller site and range to £3,000–£6,000 for mid-market commercial or multi-site projects. The fee reflects the depth of analysis yield modelling, financial returns, grid desktop review, and planning risk. We do not offer free feasibility as a sales tool to win the next contract. The independence that makes the advice worth having is funded by the fee.

A free feasibility from an EPC contractor is a sales document. It is designed to produce a positive outcome for the contractor's pipeline. An Arc feasibility study is a professional assessment of viability designed to tell you the truth about whether the project stacks up, including when it does not.

Commercial property owners and REITs, logistics operators and large commercial occupiers, housing associations, solar farm developers, and property fund managers. Arc does not work with residential clients or sub-50kWp single-site commercial projects.

Grid connection is one of the areas where independent consultancy adds the most value because EPC contractors and developers manage grid connections in ways that serve their programme, not necessarily the client's long-term interests. Arc manages the DNO relationship and the G99/G100 process on your behalf.

No. Arc has no commercial relationship with any EPC contractor, equipment supplier, or installer. This is the structural basis of Arc's independence.
