Our philosophy
With Solar Plan, you stop paying high energy bills immediately, start saving money now and decide about ownership later. We offer an attractive subscription model starting from AWG 90 per month, depending on your energy consumption.
Everything is included, from the approval process and installation to maintenance and insurance.
Prefer to Own Your System?
You can purchase the system outright with our flexible payment options, including:
-
Pay in 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 years (our 1-to-5 option)
-
No interest
-
No down payment required
-
Attractive discount when paying upfront in full
Guaranteed Savings. No upfront costs.
At Solar Plan, you only start paying after your system is installed and approved. That means no double costs and real savings from day one.
That's our philosophy and why we exist.
Our unique offering:
We offer two options. These options are both available to solar only and off-grid (includes BESS, battery energy storage solution).

Why our clients prefer our subscription
At Solar Plan, you can buy with 0% interest, no down payment and the option to pay in 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 years (our 1-to-5 option). And yes, it is true that once you own a system, it improves your monthly savings.
But most people still choose our solar subscription, starting at just AWG 90/month.
Here's why:
✅ Earning back your investment or repaying debt. When you buy a system, you first need to earn back what you paid or repay the loan. You are not saving from day one.
✅ Inverter protection. We use only lease-grade equipment, professionally installed. Guaranteed performance for 15 years.
✅ Impact on credit and borrowing power. Financing a solar system adds debt to your name. It may affect your credit score and your ability to qualify for loans.
✅ Maintenance included. We handle all servicing and repairs.
✅ Insurance included. You’re covered for damage and system issues.
✅ 24/7 monitoring. Our tech team tracks your system for you.
✅ Peace of mind. You get clean energy from a system that actually works, no hassle.
✅ Access to our Solar Plan App. Check system performance anytime from your phone.
Want to buy later? No problem.
You can purchase the system anytime, get a discount for what you’ve paid and still enjoy our 1-5 payment option with 0% interest plan with no down payments.
Solar Plan
My name is Martijn Platenkamp, former CFO and board member of a Dutch energy utility company, and I am the founder of Solar Plan.
Through my doctoral research on the dynamics of global governance, I highlight how businesses can and must balance profitability with purpose. In today’s interconnected world, the companies that succeed long-term are those that contribute meaningfully to solving societal and environmental challenges while creating lasting value for all stakeholders, not just the shareholders.
This belief is what inspired me to launch Solar Plan: a mission-driven company dedicated to making clean, affordable energy accessible to every household in the Caribbean.
At Solar Plan, we’re not just providing solar power. We focus on helping communities become more resilient, sustainable and empowered through energy independence. Together we are the movement. Be the light. And spread the light for a sustainable planet.

Frequently asked questions
1. How does the solar subscription work? With our solar subscription, you pay a fixed monthly fee starting from AWG 90, and we take care of the rest. That includes installation, maintenance, insurance, 24/7 monitoring, and guaranteed energy performance. You get all the benefits of solar without the responsibilities of ownership.
2. Is the system mine if I choose the subscription? Not at first. With the subscription, Solar Plan owns and maintains the system while you enjoy the energy savings. However, you can choose to buy the system at any time, with a discount based on your subscription payments.
3. Can I buy the system later if I change my mind? Yes. You can purchase the system at any point during your subscription. We’ll discount the fees you’ve already paid, and you can still spread the remaining cost over 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 years (our 1-to-5 option) with 0% interest.
4. How does this compare to buying a system outright? Buying requires a large upfront investment or financing. That means you’re either taking on debt or waiting years to earn back your investment. With a subscription, you start benefiting from day one with no debt and no payback period.
5. Will a loan for solar affect my credit or ability to borrow? Yes. Financing a solar system adds debt to your name and may impact your credit score or your ability to qualify for other loans. Our subscription avoids this entirely.
6. What happens if I move or sell my house? We make it easy to transfer your subscription to the new homeowner or explore other options. Just reach out and we’ll guide you through the process.
7. What if I rent a house? Can I still join? Yes, but you will need to have approval from the owner. Since solar systems are installed on the property, we’ll need this consent from the owner. It also helps to make the transfer of the subscription to a new tenant easier (if that ever happens) since you have the backing of the owner. We’re happy to help explain the benefits to the owner and work out a solution that works for everyone.
8. Why should I trust Solar Plan? We exist to make clean, affordable energy accessible to every household. Our systems use lease-grade materials, are professionally installed and are backed by a dedicated local team. Apart from quality and an offer that really is fair, we are on a mission to contribute to a sustainable planet. Check out our manifesto to learn more.
9. What happens if Solar Plan becomes insolvent or goes bankrupt? In the unlikely event that Solar Plan becomes insolvent, a court-appointed administrator will manage the process. Their job is to ensure all existing contracts, obligations, and customer agreements are upheld and transferred to a new owner or service provider. Your system will keep working, and your agreement will remain valid. Our use of high-quality, lease-grade materials ensures ongoing system performance regardless of ownership changes.
