Solarprime and Revo Energia expand their partnership to offer solar energy as a service, with no initial installation or maintenance costs, reducing electricity bills month by month.
Solarprime and Revo Energia have announced the intensification of their collaboration to make solar energy available in a revolutionary format called 'energy as a service'. In this model, consumers do not need to bear the upfront costs of installing and maintaining solar energy systems, benefiting directly through reduced energy bills.
Adopting this innovative approach to energy as a service, the partnership aims to facilitate access to sustainable energy. Through the use of photovoltaic systems, customers ensure that their energy needs are met in an efficient and environmentally friendly manner. This initiative reflects a commitment to a cleaner and more economical future, promoting a smooth transition to renewable energy. This collaboration promises to transform the way energy is consumed and reinforces the commitment of both companies to lead change in the energy sector.
Innovative Solar Energy Model
In the model known as 'energy as a service', you consumers have the chance to get solar panels in their homes without having to purchase the photovoltaic system or bear the costs of installing and maintaining the equipment. This innovative model is a unique opportunity for those who want to use solar energy without high initial investments.

In this format, consumers of low tension can hire the service and generate their own solar energy through a photovoltaic plant implemented by Solarprime. This considerably reduces the dependency da public network of energy and protects users from variations by tariff flags, representing a significant advantage in terms of economy.
Hiring Without Investments
The foundations of the energy-as-a-service model are quite simple. They offer customers the possibility of generating their own solar energy without needing to invest in the installation and maintenance of the photovoltaic system. client receives a discount na energy bill All month, calculated based on the green flag, generating continuous additional savings.
At the end of the contract, the customer becomes the owner of the photovoltaic plant, allowing energy generation without additional charge. Silvio Antunes, head of Channels at Revo Energia, explains that this business structure allows substantial savings for the end customer, providing a sustainable and economical solution.
Analogies to Illustrate
To illustrate the concept of energy as a service, Sandro Cubas, founding partner of Solarprime, uses a analogy with the use of a car. He compares the offer with the situation in which a person receives a car and fuel at a price 20% cheaper than usual, without having to purchase the car. This business model innovates by providing all the advantages of a photovoltaic system with guaranteed maintenance, insurance and monthly discounts on electricity bill.
Thus, solar energy is presented as an affordable and advantageous solution for consumers who want to save money and contribute to sustainability. This approach allows people to use a high-quality system without any upfront costs, encouraging the adoption of renewable energy.
Criteria and Requirements
To adhere to the energy as a service model, the customer must meet some specific requirements. First, it is necessary to have a consumer unit Group B (low voltage) with monthly bills starting at R$400. In addition, the customer must go through a credit analysis, which is more flexible than that of traditional banks.
It is not permitted to combine consumption from other consumer units or to dimension the photovoltaic system beyond what is necessary. These criteria ensure that the service is offered in a fair and efficient manner, benefiting both the customer and the supplier.
Protection Against Tariff Flags
Subscribing to energy as a service allows the customer to protect themselves from tariff flags, such as Red flag triggered by Aneel (National Electric Energy Agency) in September, which imposes an additional cost of R$4,463 for every 100 kilowatt-hours (kWh) consumed. With solar energy, the consumer no longer needs to depend on the Regulated Contracting Environment (Captive Market), where the prices are traded in auctions by distribution concessionaires.
This offers an important advantage: in addition to saving 20% without initial investment, the customer is free from fluctuations in tariff flags, mitigating the impacts of drought and water crises in the country. This independence is one of the biggest attractions of the energy-as-a-service model.
