Story · A solar system, kept productive

A financed solar home system goes dark when its owner defaults. The financier ships it to GreenBay, we test, refurbish, certify, list. A new household buys it on pay-as-you-go for less than the cost of new. The lender recovers value and keeps lending. The asset stays out of a landfill. The lights stay on.

For asset financiers

Certified resale of repossessed solar, EVs and productive assets , recovery without informality.

For legacy brands

A trusted channel for surplus, returns and overstock , without cannibalising new sales.

03 · Why we exist

Every transaction does two things at once.

+income
Livelihoods. A solar pump replaces a $2/day diesel habit. An e-boda lowers a rider's fuel costs by 60%. A fridge lets a small shop sell cold drinks. Productive assets pay for themselves.
−CO₂
Environment. Every solar home system displaces kerosene. Every solar pump displaces diesel. Every refurbished appliance is one less unit in a landfill leaking refrigerants.
xscale
Capital efficiency. When financiers can recover defaulted assets through us, they lend more , and more households reach the clean-energy ladder.
