Powered by Angle Finance, Solace (Solace Solutions) puts control back into the hands of community organisations, not-for-profits, and businesses that have never had access to this level of opportunity.
Brisbane, Queensland. Solace, powered by Angle Finance, announced the launch of a complete energy asset solution that fundamentally changes the way Queensland businesses, community organisations, and not-for-profits invest in solar and battery. This is not a finance product. It is a fully managed, end-to-end energy system that redirects money organisations are already spending into something that works for them, not for the network. For too long, the energy conversation has been controlled by the network. Businesses and clubs have handed over the same money, quarter after quarter, facing unpredictable bills with nothing to show for it. Solace has changed the dial. The same money that was flowing to the retailer can now flow into a customised, fully managed energy system. Savings begin from day one. The organisation is in control. And after the term, that investment becomes a lasting legacy.
“You are already paying for this. Every quarter, that money goes to the retailer. Solace changes where it goes. From the moment the system is on, the savings start. Over time, that same spend builds something the organisation can own, and create something it passes on. That is what we mean by turning energy into legacy.”
Not a Finance Product. A Complete Solution.
Most energy finance products do one thing: provide capital. The customer then carries the system, the maintenance, the monitoring, and the risk. Solace is built differently. From design and installation through to ongoing monitoring, maintenance, data usage transparency and reporting, and system optimisation, the entire solution is managed as part of a single, fixed monthly commitment. There is no capital outlay. No surprise repair bills. And no more handing over an unpredictable amount to a retailer each month with nothing to show for it. Solace replaces that spend with a guaranteed fixed payment that is lower than the current energy bill, and savings begin from day one.
The Same Money. A Different Destination.
This is not a choice about whether to spend money on energy. That decision has already been made. The only question is where that money goes. Right now, it goes to the retailer. It is unpredictable, it compounds year on year, and at the end of it there is nothing left. With Solace, that same monthly commitment funds a fully managed energy system that the organisation can own. A community sports club paying tens of thousands a year in energy costs is not choosing between spending and saving. They are choosing between two ways to spend the same money. With Solace, that spend starts returning savings immediately and builds towards a long-term legacy: new facilities, junior programs, upgraded equipment and mission delivery. Solace is also built for the long run. The solution adapts as the organisation grows and its energy needs change across the term. It is a partnership, not a transaction.
What Sets Solace Apart
A complete, fully managed solution: Design, installation, monitoring, maintenance, data reporting and optimisation are all included. This is not a finance product with a system attached. It is an end-to-end energy solution with funding built in.
• Savings from day one: The fixed monthly payment is lower than the current energy bill. Organisations do not wait ten years for the benefit. The benefit starts the moment the system is operational.
• Fixed payments, guaranteed: No more unpredictable retailer bills. Customers know exactly what they are paying every month across the full term, regardless of what happens to energy prices.
• Built to grow with the customer: As energy needs evolve across the term, Solace adapts. It is a long-term energy partnership, not a product locked-in at day one.
• Energy intelligence and reporting built in: The Solace platform supports Scope 3 emissions reporting and supply chain efficiency insights, helping customers meet sustainability commitments without adding complexity.

Built for the Organisations That Have Been Told to Wait
There is plenty of solar finance for large corporations. There is plenty of residential solar for homeowners with capital. There is almost nothing built for the organisations sitting in between. Solace was built specifically for three groups:
- Community sports clubs: Rugby league, AFL, cricket, surf lifesaving, bowls, netball. Clubs that own their grounds, run on volunteer committees, and feel every dollar of their power bill.
- Charities and not-for-profits: Community service providers, aged care operators, faith-based organisations, and regional support groups where every dollar saved on overheads is a dollar returned to mission delivery.
- Growing businesses: Trades, light industrial, retail, hospitality, and agriculture. SMEs with rising energy costs and no capital headroom for a six-figure outlay who know solar pays back but cannot carry the debt.
