Rent To Own Solar
Own Your Power Without the Upfront Cost
Don’t let tight budgets and lack of upfront capital keep you from enjoying the benefits of solar. Don’t buy, rent to own your solar system!
Energy Independence Starts Here
Are you tired of loadshedding dictating your business hours and family life? Are you frustrated watching your monthly electricity bill climb higher and higher for a service you can’t even rely on? The need for a stable, affordable power solution has never been more critical.
For too long, the massive upfront cost of a complete solar power installation – often running into hundreds of thousands of rands – has put energy independence out of reach for most South African homes and businesses. This leaves you stuck in a cycle of lost productivity, damaged equipment, and the constant stress of an unpredictable grid, all while paying for electricity you don’t always receive.
What if you could bypass that crippling upfront investment and get a state-of-the-art solar power system installed right now? New Heights Finance makes it possible with a Rent to Own Solar Power System. Get the energy security you need today for a fixed, affordable monthly payment, and own the system outright at the end of the term. It’s not just a rental; it’s your clear path to ownership.

The Smarter Way to Go Solar
Choosing our Rent to Own model isn’t just about avoiding a large expense; it’s about making a strategic financial decision that delivers immediate and long-term benefits.
Key Benefits
- Zero Massive Upfront Capital Outlay: Forget the R150,000+ investment. Get your system installed and running with no major drain on your capital, allowing you to invest your cash where your business needs it most.
- Fixed, Predictable Monthly Payments: Your monthly rental payment is fixed for the duration of your term. This protects you from Eskom’s annual price hikes and gives you a predictable energy expense you can actually budget for.

- Immediate Stability and Savings: The moment your system is switched on, you start saving. You save money on your electricity bill and, more importantly, you save your business from the costly disruptions of loadshedding.
- Full Maintenance & Support Included: During the rental period, the system’s maintenance, monitoring, and insurance are completely covered. You get all the benefits of solar with none of the hassle.

FAQs
What happens at the end of the rental term?
At the end of the agreed-upon term, full ownership of the entire solar power system is transferred to you. There are no hidden costs or final balloon payments.
Is maintenance and insurance really included?
Yes. For the full duration of the Rent to Own term, your system is covered by a comprehensive maintenance plan and is fully insured. Our monitoring team often detects and resolves issues before you’re even aware of them.
What if I sell my property during the term?
You have options. The Rent to Own agreement can often be transferred to the new property owner (subject to credit approval), or you can arrange to settle the agreement early.
Can I upgrade the system later?
Absolutely. As your energy needs grow, we can assess and facilitate upgrades to your system, such as adding more panels or battery storage.
