All-in installed cost—
O&M contract (Buy & Own)—
The installed cost is all-in and turnkey: panels, inverter, mounting structure, DC/AC cabling, protection, the Shams Dubai filing and installation by a DEWA-accredited contractor — no hidden extras. It equals system size × the current market rate per kWp. System size comes from your bill: we convert it to kilowatt-hours through the official DEWA slab tariff, then size the array to cover a typical share of your consumption at Dubai's yield of ≈1,650 kWh per kWp per year.
The calculator starts at 10,000 kWh a month (≈ AED 3,969) — the minimum for ESCO and Co-Invest projects. Villas and homes are Buy & Own with no minimum: use the villa page.
Uses the official DEWA slab tariff (July 2026), typical Dubai yield and current installed costs — nothing to configure. Projects in Abu Dhabi (ADDC), Sharjah (SEWA) and the Northern Emirates (EtihadWE) follow their utility's tariffs and are assessed individually. Want the detail?

Why SOLTECH
One partner takes on everything
You sign one contract. Behind it, SOLTECH carries the financing, the engineering, the DEWA process, the operations and the risk — so your team is not the one chasing approvals and contractors.
Calculate your savings ↗- Flexible capital structureBuy it, take it under a zero-capex ESCO contract, or co-invest a share — SOLTECH arranges the funding side to match your treasury.
- One accountable teamDesign, build, DEWA filing, monitoring, cleaning, insurance and warranties, all under one roof.
- Incentives alignedOur fee is tied to the savings the system produces, so specifying it correctly and holding the contractor to the design is in our own interest as much as yours.
Client app · in development
Your project in your pocket — the SOLTECH app
We are building a mobile app for SOLTECH clients: one screen that answers the only questions an owner actually has. Is it paying back? How much did it make today, this week, this year? What has it saved me? And when something needs doing — a service call, a cleaning — it happens from the same screen. The design below is a preview of what we are working towards.
- Return on your investment, kept honestROI and payback recalculated from what the system has actually generated and what DEWA actually billed — not from the number in the original proposal. You watch the real curve, month by month.
- Generation over any periodWhat the roof is producing right now, and what it produced yesterday, over the past week, the month and the year. The same figures your inverter reports, gathered into one history you can scroll back through.
- What you spent, beside what you madeConsumption and cost for the same periods, so generation and spend sit side by side. That comparison is the whole point of the system, and it is the one thing a monthly bill never shows you clearly.
- Your array, on recordInstalled capacity, panel count and the square metres of array on your roof, with the model codes. Useful when you extend the system, sell the building or hand it to a facility manager.
- Call O&M from the appOne tap raises a maintenance request against your project — no phone tree, no explaining which villa you are. The ticket already carries the site, the equipment and the fault history.
- A cleaning schedule that fits the dustDust is the single largest avoidable loss in this region. The app keeps your cleaning calendar, reminds you when the next one falls due and logs each visit against the output before and after it.

Commercial models
Three models — pick what fits your capital
Every project is designed and supervised by SOLTECH and built by DEWA-accredited contractors. The difference is only who funds it — and who keeps how much of the saving.
01 · Buy & Own
You own the system
You fund the installation and own the asset outright. SOLTECH runs the tender, coordinates the process to acceptance and stays on under an O&M contract — monitoring, cleaning schedules and performance reporting. The full saving is yours from the first month.
Zero investment
02 · ESCO
Pay per kWh, invest nothing
SOLTECH and its financing partners fund and operate the system on your site under an energy-service contract. You simply buy the solar electricity it produces at a rate below DEWA — no capex, nothing on your balance sheet, and if it produces less, you pay less.
03 · Co-invest
Split the capex, split the upside
You invest a share of the project cost and receive a proportionally larger slice of the savings than under a pure ESCO. The middle path: stronger returns than zero-capex, less capital than full ownership.
Straight answers
Questions people actually ask
Do I have to invest my own money?
Only if you want to. SOLTECH offers three models: Buy & Own — you fund the system, keep the full saving and sign an O&M contract with us; ESCO — financing partners fund it and you buy its power below the DEWA rate with zero investment; Co-invest — you fund a share and keep a proportionally larger slice of the saving. The free assessment models all three side by side.
How is the saving guaranteed?
Under ESCO you only pay for solar energy actually produced, at a rate fixed below DEWA in the contract — if the system produces less, you pay less. Under Buy & Own and Co-invest the production commitments sit in the EPC and O&M contracts, which SOLTECH helps you negotiate and holds the contractor to on your behalf.
Who owns and maintains the system?
It depends on the model you choose. Under Buy & Own the asset is yours, maintained under an O&M contract with a DEWA-enrolled contractor that we help you put in place. Under ESCO the financing structure owns and operates it for the term, with a pre-agreed buy-out. Under Co-invest ownership is shared pro-rata. In every case construction and warranty work sit with DEWA-accredited contractors, and SOLTECH remains your single point of contact.
What happens at the end of the term?
It's agreed up front. Typically you can renew, extend, or buy the system at a pre-set value — the options are written into the contract from day one. Either way the asset stays on your site and keeps producing.
How quickly do we start saving?
After a free site assessment we issue a proposal within 24–48 hours. A typical commercial project is built and connected within weeks, and the saving begins the month the system switches on. Most of the timeline is DEWA approval, which we manage for you.
