Energy Brasil launches Energy Pay, the credit card machine that will help you acquire your solar energy installation!

The demand for solar energy is constantly increasing, especially when we talk about distributed solar energy. Exactly for this reason, Energy Brasil, one of the largest companies in the market for the sale and installation of solar panel kits, is helping Brazilians to install solar energy at your home through a new form of payment.

This facility will help many people to be able to install solar energy at home using one of the most accessible lines of credit in Brazil: the credit card.

Difficulties that Brazilians find to install solar energy

Túlio Fonseca, founding partner of Energy Brasil, comments that it is not the investment itself that is the greatest difficulty for Brazilians, but the way to acquire this investment.

He claims: “Today it is possible to purchase a solar kit from R$10,000, but the minority buy it in cash and need to resort to financing or a credit card. The problem is that both have high interest rates and financing has a lot of bureaucracy. We had already identified this in the market and we thought how to facilitate this acquisition?”

The answer came in a simple and efficient way: Energy Brasil created Energy Pay, its own credit card machine.

"The customer buys on the spot and can pay in as many credit cards as he wants". With this novelty, the company intends to increase its solar energy customers, including making it more accessible to classes C and D.

What are Energy Brasil's numbers?

 Energy Brasil is one of the largest solar panel installation and sales companies in Brazil. With more than 400 franchises spread across the country, the company has become an important player in the solar energy market, always betting on the democratization of its solar energy systems

By releasing this form of acquisition, Energy Brasil intends to earn an average of 150 million reais with Energy Pay alone.

The company has been following the rapid growth that solar energy has had in recent years. In October, Brazil reached 11 GW of installed solar energy, with 7.6 GW coming from the distributed grid.

The main reasons for the growth of this market involve the high costs of the electricity bill in recent months, caused by the energy crisis stemming from the water crisis and the fact that these solar panels are becoming more and more popular.

 In addition to the fact that the legal framework for distributed microgeneration and minigeneration further stimulates these markets.

Energy Brasil's choice of credit card was not by chance. Credit card is one of the most used payment methods in Brazil.

In the survey on digital wallets in Brazil, carried out by Serasa, 85% of Brazilians indicated the credit card as a means of payment and also, according to the Brazilian Association of credit card service companies, purchases through cards prepaid debit credit lines grew 52% in the second quarter of 2021, when compared to the same period last year in the total amount of 609,2 billion reais.

How do I become a part of this solar energy revolution?

If you are interested in these numbers and want to participate in this market, Energy Brasil has two excellent news for you. 

In addition to a franchise program with a relatively small investment and an average return period of 12 months, you become one of the franchisees of the Leader company in the distributed solar energy market.

If the investment seems too big for you, there is a possibility that you can start as a sales representative at the company working from home, within your schedule and getting sales from your projects.
