For buying and refinancing biogas equipment
Biogas equipment finance is a vital component for the UK’s agricultural sector, offering a sustainable solution to energy needs. This financing supports the purchase of anaerobic digestion systems that convert organic waste into renewable energy, aligning with the UK’s commitment to a net-zero carbon economy.
The initial investment in biogas technology can be significant, making financial options like loans and leases attractive for farms and agri-businesses. These options spread the cost over time, improving affordability and ensuring access to this crucial technology.
In terms of asset finance, the biogas equipment often serves as collateral, securing the loan or lease and potentially leading to better terms. With the UK government investing in renewable energy and the agricultural sector’s move towards sustainability, investing in biogas equipment is not only eco-friendly but also financially sound.
For UK farms, integrating biogas systems and equipment, or associated systems such as biomass boilers, can lead to significant energy savings and potential revenue streams. These technologies align with the nation’s sustainability goals, providing a greener future. Our services include sourcing lenders for a variety of agricultural equipment finance, ensuring that you have the right support to make this transition.

The cost of biogas equipment varies depending on the technology and project scale. Here are some indicative price ranges and financing considerations:
Financing options for biogas equipment are diverse, with possibilities such as hire purchase, finance leases, and operating leases. Government incentives, like the Green Gas Support Scheme (GGSS), may also be available to help offset some of the costs.
Installing biogas equipment involves several key steps:
Long-term financial benefits, such as savings from reduced energy costs or earnings from selling biomethane, should also be considered. The carbon market currently values carbon credits between £20 to £40 per credit, which can provide additional revenue streams.
The lifespan of biogas systems can range from 20 to 30 years, depending on the technology and maintenance regime. Financing agreements are often structured to align with this operational lifespan, ensuring cost-effectiveness and sustainability.
Investing in biogas equipment through finance options helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions by converting agricultural waste into renewable energy. This supports the UK’s net-zero ambitions and is bolstered by government incentives like the Green Gas Support Scheme.
The borrowing amount for biogas equipment finance depends on your financial profile, including credit history, income, and cash flow. It’s common to finance up to 100% of the equipment cost, although a deposit or guarantor may be required.
Finance terms for biogas equipment typically range from 12 to 60 months, but they can be tailored based on the lender’s policies and your specific needs. Longer terms may be available for more extensive or complex projects.
Early repayment of biogas equipment finance is generally possible, though it may involve a penalty or settlement fee. It’s advisable to check the terms of your finance agreement and discuss early termination options with your lender or finance broker.
Maintenance costs are usually not covered in the finance agreement. It’s essential to factor in the ongoing maintenance expenses when considering the total cost of ownership for your biogas equipment.

I approached Clifton Private Finance to help me get a mortgage as an Expat working in the Far East. I would normally 'cut out the middle man' on something like this and try to get myself a deal directly with the banks, but I am now sold on the broker concept and wouldn't hesitate to use Clifton Private Finance again. There were a number of complicating factors such as being an expat, the stamp duty holiday, the sheer amount I wanted to borrow and the fact I wanted it all wrapped up before the Stamp Duty holiday ended. It is clear to me now that the relationship that brokers have managed to foster with their banks means they can simply pull levers and make stuff happen that us ordinary folk cannot. Put simply, they are worth every penny, will take most of the stress out of the lending process, and seem to have access to deals that you just won't find on the internet. Thank you George and Jan for all your hard work!

Luther was excellent. Very clear in his advice and explanations of products and was able to move things on very quickly when we ran into difficulties with the estate agents. Without a doubt I would recommend Luther to all friends, family and colleagues. Luther was a joy to deal with and took a lot of the stress out of a troublesome transaction, from my end. I would view Luther as real asset to Clifton Private Finance Ltd.

The team at Clifton Private Finance has been outstanding, not only in helping me to obtain a mortgage on a slightly unusual home, but also in continuing to provide support and liaise with the lender and solicitors through to completion. Thank you for making the process of buying my first home much easier.

Sam O'Neill, and the new lender he identified for me, worked tirelessly together using my time constraints, to make sure my mortgage application was completed on time. They are a brilliant company to work with, fast, efficient, open and transparent from the very beginning, and turned a seemingly impossible situation into a viable one. Sam was brilliant throughout the whole process and I would highly recommend him, and his colleague Helen, to anyone without hesitation, I cannot speak highly enough about them.

I was incredibly lucky to find Clifton Private Finance after a search on line as their service has been more than exemplary. My point of contact was Sam 0’Neill and he was happy to help at every stage during the application of the bridging loan, making a stressful process much easier to deal with. He was always available by phone or email and gave prompt answers to queries I had as well as always getting back to me when he said he would. That to me is excellent customer service and I cannot thank him personally or the company enough for the support they have given me.

Adam cannot thank you enough for all your support throughout this arrangement. You have gone more than the extra mile to support us. Without you we would not have got our dream retirement home. You have been most professional and personable. Liz and I would be more than happy if you wanted to use us a reference with respect to any future clients.

You have certainly shown me that you do everything for your clients, including tolerating their excessive emails and questions for updates. I have been kept in the loop, from yourself, about why the delays were occurring (Nationwide, post etc) which I would like to highlight that I really appreciated. I certainly will be able to recommend you to others as and when the need arises.
Mr Morris
I recently contacted Clifton Private Finance after a Google search for bridging finance providers and was immediately struck by their efficiency and support. Forms were emailed over almost immediately and the necessary finance was arranged within a few days. None of the other companies I contacted came close to their professionalism, and the quote that I eventually received was impressive. Thank you Adam, your help has enabled us to reserve the house that we wanted and I certainly recommend you to others.

Absolutely brilliant. The service was first class, got everything sorted efficiently and were always friendly. Any fees were negligible compared to the service offered. Robert was particularly outstanding.

My advisor, Robert, was very helpful in finding the mortgage to suit me. He kept me up to date throughout the process and dealt with any issues when they arose.
