BEAS Power Webinar Week


Energy bills are one of the biggest costs for small and medium sized businesses, and as prices continue to rise, they have a direct impact not just on your bottom line but also on your carbon footprint. For many SMEs, the challenge isn’t knowing whether to act, but where to start.

That’s where the Business Energy Advice Service (BEAS) comes in. We provide free energy assessments and access to up to £100,000 in match-funded grants to help SMEs take practical steps towards lowering bills and reducing emissions.

This 60-minute online webinar will show how solar can be a practical step for your business, as you learn about a local organisation that installed 192 solar panels with BEAS support. You will understand their challenges, motivations, costs, and steps to begin your net zero journey.

Speakers

  • Aston University will share the case study and explain why solar can make sense for SMEs - covering costs, savings, payback, and what to consider before investing.
  • Birmingham City Council will explain the eligibility criteria, application process, and timelines for securing up to £100,000 in BEAS match-funded grants.

Why attend?

  • Learn how BEAS has already supported 1,500+ SMEs in the West Midlands to cut bills and carbon emissions
  • Understand the costs, benefits, and practical considerations for SMEs
  • Learn how to apply for a free energy assessment and access grant funding
  • Get answers to your own questions in a live Q&A
