Battery storage

Sell commercial battery storage leads,
paid per accepted lead.

Yes. AceLeads buys commercial battery storage enquiries from independent lead generators across the UK, from businesses, landlords, farms and estates teams scoping a battery energy storage system on their own site. You send the lead with the site, the energy spend, the space and the grid position attached, we accept or reject it within 48 hours, and every accepted lead pays a fixed fee. Commercial and behind the meter only: domestic home batteries and grid-scale land deals are rejected.

The biggest projects we take supply for, and the tightest brief. A battery is specified against a load profile, a connection and a patch of floor or yard, so those three things decide whether an enquiry is a project or a postcode. Capture them and this is the best-paying work on the board.

The terms on this brief

Same for every affiliate

Decision: Within 48 hours of submission
First payment: Within 14 days of your first accepted lead
After that: Every Friday, for everything accepted up to the previous Sunday
Payment method: Bank transfer (BACS). We raise the self-billed invoice, so there is nothing to chase.
Clawback: Once we accept a lead it is ours. We never claw back an accepted lead because a buyer did not convert it. We reverse a payment only for proven fraud, a proven duplicate, or a consent failure.

Figures are published on the rate card and nowhere else, so this page and the fee you are paid cannot drift apart.

What we accept

Send these with every lead.

This is the whole acceptance standard for battery storage. A lead carrying all of it clears the decision window quickly, and the fields that lift it to the qualified tier are set out further down.

A named decision maker at a UK trading business, landlord, farm or estate: owner, director, or a facilities, estates, energy or sustainability manager, with their role recorded.
The site address with a full postcode. The site the battery would stand on, not a registered office, not an accountant’s address and not “sites nationwide”.
A working UK phone number and a deliverable email address. We check both before a fee is due, so a mistyped digit costs you the lead.
Site type: industrial unit, warehouse, factory, cold store, farm, retail park, offices, hotel, leisure or a managed estate.
Current electricity spend, annual or taken from a recent bill, and whether the site is on half-hourly metering. An approximation is fine, a blank is not.
Space available for the battery: plant room, yard, external compound or hardstanding, with a rough footprint if they know it.
The grid position as far as the enquirer knows it: supply capacity, any import or export limit already applied, and whether a connection application has ever been made.
What else is in scope, because these schemes are rarely storage alone. Flag rooftop or ground-mount solar, EV charging, or a combination, and say which one they asked about first.
Ownership or lease position on the site, and the remaining term if they lease it. A battery is a long-lived asset and tenure is the question the buyer asks second.
Stage and timeframe: scoping, budgeting or quoting, and whether capital is approved. Dated, in the enquirer’s own words.
Consent evidence on every lead, no exceptions: the form URL, the exact wording shown, the IP address, the user agent and the timestamp.

Who buys them. The buyers on this brief are commercial solar EPCs, battery storage specialists, energy consultancies and ESCOs, and M&E and electrical contractors working commercial sites across the UK, and the postcode areas they are short in move from week to week.

What we reject

The closed list.

Storage attracts more research traffic than any other brief we run, because everybody wants to know what a battery earns and very few sites can take one. These are the six ways an enquiry fails here. The list is closed: a rejected lead comes back inside the same 48 hours with one named reason from it, you can appeal it, and the lead stays yours to place elsewhere.

Domestic and micro-scale batteries

A householder adding storage to a domestic array, a home battery quoted off a smart tariff, an off-grid cabin or a garage battery on a residential supply. The buyers here survey commercial sites and quote capital projects, and none of them wants a domestic call however complete the data is. Split that traffic at the form rather than sending it and taking the rejection.

Grid-scale land and development enquiries

A landowner offering a field for a utility-scale scheme, an option or lease agreement being shopped around, a connection queue position for sale, or a developer looking for a co-location site. That is a property and development transaction with its own market and its own buyers. This brief is behind the meter: a battery on a site to serve the load already on it.

A site nobody can place, or a tenure that cannot carry the asset

No postcode, a head office instead of the unit with the load, or a managing agent enquiring with no landowner named. Also a tenant on a short remaining term with no landlord consent in sight, and an enquirer about to sell the building. Briefs are worked postcode by postcode, and a battery outlives most leases, so a site we cannot locate or a term nobody can commit is not a project yet.

Neither a spend nor a load pattern

A battery is sized against how a site draws power, so with no annual spend, no recent bill and no half-hourly data there is nothing on the record that separates a cold store running plant around the clock from a two-person office. One of the two missing is a qualifying call. Both missing is a name and a phone number, which is not a battery storage lead.

Revenue-stacking, grant and feasibility research

Enquirers asking what a battery could earn from flexibility or balancing services with no site behind the question, grant hunters checking what funding exists, consultants and students gathering market information, sustainability reporting with no capital attached, and tender collectors who need a third quote for a scheme already awarded. Intent has to be dated and funded, not curious.

Recycled, scraped, co-registered or aged enquiries

A duplicate of an enquiry already submitted, by you or by another affiliate, inside the dedupe window on our lead standards page. Also scraped company records and director lists, energy-broker files resold as enquiries, prize draw and free-gift entries, and any lead whose consent wording never mentioned energy or storage. Screening runs on normalised phone and email, and a consent trail that does not match the enquiry fails on its own.

Nothing outside this list is a reason to reject a lead on this brief. The standards that apply across every brief are on the lead quality standards page, and the consent rules are on the compliance page.

Tiers

What moves the fee on a battery storage lead

Two tiers are open here: a raw lead that meets the acceptance standards, and a qualified lead that also carries the detail in the brief. Both figures are published on the rate card and nowhere else, they are indicative, and postcode and volume move them. This vertical sits at the top of that card because the project behind an accepted lead is the largest we take supply for. Booked appointments are not an open tier, we pay no appointment fee today, and if that changes the figure goes on the rate card before anyone is asked to work to it.

A real energy spend, and how the site uses it

An annual figure or a recent bill is the strongest qualifier in this vertical, and half-hourly metering is the second. Together they are what shows there is a commercial case before anyone books a survey, and they are usually what lifts a lead from the raw tier to the qualified one.

Where the site stands on its connection

Supply capacity, an import or export limit already applied, or a connection application that has been made and stalled. A constrained connection is often the reason a business wants storage rather than a reason to walk away, so record it either way. It is the fastest thing a buyer can use to rule a site in.

Space, and roughly how much of it

A plant room, a corner of a yard or an external compound with a rough footprint. Site type alone does not settle it: two warehouses on the same estate can differ by an order of magnitude in what they can physically take, and the enquiry that says where the battery would go prices well above the one that does not.

What else is in the scheme

Storage on UK commercial sites is now usually specified with rooftop solar and EV charging as one project. A lead that flags all three raises the value of the work behind it and the fee with it. Record what was actually asked for rather than filing everything as a battery enquiry.

Every fee is published in one place.

The raw and qualified tiers for this brief sit on the rate card with every other vertical, so there is only ever one number to check. Rates are indicative and depend on postcode and volume.

See what we pay

Non-negotiable

Two things every lead has to clear.

These apply to every brief on this page and every brief we run. They are not preferences, and a lead that misses either is rejected whatever else is right about it.

Your capture pages meet the standard

Every page you generate from has to be built to UK GDPR and PECR standards, not close to them. That means a real privacy notice, consent that is specific, informed and freely given, no pre-ticked boxes or bundled permissions, and AceLeads or a clearly described category of recipient named at the point of capture.

Consent evidence travels with the lead: the timestamp, the IP, the page URL and the exact wording the person was shown. Consent you cannot produce is consent you do not have.

What we require, in full

Every lead is verified before it counts

Leads are verified on the way in, by you before you send and by us on receipt. Contact details are checked, duplicates are caught across every affiliate rather than just your own, and known junk patterns are filtered automatically.

This protects your earnings as much as our buyers. A verified stream gets a higher acceptance rate, and a clean sender gets the briefs with the best rates first.

How a lead is judged

We audit capture pages, and we will ask to see one before your first lead is accepted. This is not box-ticking: under the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025 the maximum PECR penalty is a matter of public record, and a lead sourced from a bought list puts both of us in front of it.

FAQ

Battery storage, explained.

What a lead generator usually wants settled before sending a first batch. Still unsure? Read how the programme works.

Do you buy domestic home battery enquiries as well?

No. This brief is commercial and behind the meter: businesses, landlords, farms and estates teams putting a battery on a site they occupy or own. A householder adding storage to a domestic array is out of scope however good the data is, and so is an off-grid or garage battery on a residential supply. It is worth splitting that traffic at the form, because a domestic enquiry sent here is a rejection rather than a smaller fee.

My enquiry is really about solar with a battery mentioned. Which brief is it?

File it under whichever one the enquirer led with, and say what else was in scope. If they came for rooftop panels and a battery came up in the conversation, that is the commercial solar brief. If storage is the reason they got in touch, whether that is peak shaving, demand charges, backup or a connection that will not give them any more import, it belongs here. Same buyers, same standards, and no lead is penalised for arriving under the other heading. What does cost you is sending the same enquiry to both, because that fails the duplicate check.

What if the enquirer does not know their grid position?

Record what they do know and send it. Plenty of facilities managers can tell you the spend and the space but have never seen a connection agreement, and the buyers understand that. The connection detail is a qualifier that moves the fee, not a gate that blocks the lead. The spend and the space are closer to gates: with neither of those there is nothing to size a system against, and that is a rejection rather than a lower tier.

How much do you pay, and what makes a lead qualified rather than accepted?

A fixed fee per accepted lead at one of two tiers. Acceptance is the floor: a real, reachable decision maker at a commercial site we can place, with consent evidence attached. Qualified means the commercial case is on the lead as well, normally the energy spend alongside the space and the grid position, plus what else is in the scheme. The tier is set when we verify the lead, not by what the buyer does with it afterwards. Both figures live on the rate card and nowhere else, and they are indicative, subject to postcode and volume.

What happens if you reject a lead, and can I sell it somewhere else?

You get a decision within 48 hours carrying one named reason from the closed list on this page, never an opinion, so you can fix the problem at the source rather than guess at it. You can appeal by replying to the rejection. A rejected lead stays yours and we make no claim on it. Once we accept a lead it is ours, so an accepted enquiry should not be live with another network at the same time, and a lead sold twice shows up on the duplicate check. That is the commercial position, and the affiliate agreement is the wording that governs it.
