Shinobi Capital Group has acquired Elite Renewables, a specialist in cutting-edge solar and heat pump systems, in a significant move to expand its influence in the UK’s low-carbon home energy sector.
The purchase aligns with Shinobi’s vision to build a national network of retrofit providers delivering high-performance, sustainable solutions to both private and commercial clients. This strategic growth comes at a pivotal moment for the renewables industry, supported by rising public awareness and government schemes like the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme.
Elite Renewables, with over ten years of experience, has established itself as a trusted name in the South East of England, particularly among high-end residential customers and the design and construction community. The company’s integrated offerings — including solar PV, air source heat pumps, MVHR, EV chargers, and battery storage — frequently achieve system efficiencies of over 400%, setting it apart in a competitive market.
An Investment in Quality and Capability
Elite now joins Shinobi’s expanding group of retrofit-focused businesses, including The Retrofitters, which concentrates on insulation and holistic home upgrades, and Pyramid Eco, which caters to landlords, housing associations, and homeowners.
The Elite brand and leadership team will remain intact, with Shinobi providing strategic support to scale the business through digital innovation, operational refinement, and growth marketing.
Tim Cameron-Kitchen, founder of Shinobi Capital Group, said:
“Elite Renewables is one of the most technically capable and well-respected businesses in the heat pump and solar space. Their commitment to long-term performance, attention to detail, and service quality make them exactly the kind of company we want to support. Their track record of some truly extraordinary projects makes this one of the most exciting renewables businesses in the UK.
“Together, we will build on that strong foundation and help more people across the UK upgrade their homes with confidence.”
Strong Values for a Greener Future
The acquisition is built on a shared commitment to high-performance solutions, transparency, and lasting value. As millions of UK homes prepare for retrofitting in the years ahead, companies that prioritise education, technical integrity, and customer trust will lead the way.
With this move, Shinobi Capital strengthens its position as a key driver of the UK’s clean energy transition and a trusted partner for long-term sustainability.
Tim Cameron-Kitchen added:
“We believe the next chapter of the green transition belongs to companies that combine technical excellence with trust, education, and exceptional service,”
“Elite Renewables embodies all of that.”
