Shinobi Capital Group has completed the acquisition of Elite Renewables, a high-performing installer of heat pumps and solar systems, marking a significant step in Shinobi’s strategy to lead the UK’s green retrofit transformation.
This strategic move adds momentum to Shinobi’s vision of building a nationwide portfolio of retrofit companies capable of delivering scalable, high-quality, and low-emission solutions. The acquisition arrives at a time when demand for renewable technologies is accelerating, helped by government initiatives such as the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, offering up to £7,500 in grants.
With more than ten years of experience, Elite Renewables has established a reputation for engineering excellence. It serves a niche clientele in London and the South East, including high-end homeowners, architects, and construction professionals. The company provides integrated systems including air source heat pumps, solar PV, MVHR, battery storage, and EV charging — often achieving system efficiencies beyond 400%, a performance level that distinguishes it within the sector.
Reinforcing Shinobi’s Focus on Quality and Technical Expertise
Elite Renewables joins a strong line-up of Shinobi-supported companies, including The Retrofitters, which focuses on insulation and whole-home retrofits, and Pyramid Eco, which delivers solutions for landlords, private homes, and housing associations.
The company will retain its brand, leadership, and operational autonomy, with the acquisition enabling it to accelerate growth by tapping into Shinobi’s expertise in digital marketing, operational systems, and brand elevation.
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.”
A Partnership Rooted in Shared Values
Both Shinobi and Elite Renewables are committed to providing not only clean energy but also reliable, high-performance systems that offer lasting value. Their joint approach prioritises consumer trust, technical transparency, and education — qualities in increasing demand as the UK embarks on a large-scale residential retrofit drive.
This acquisition supports Shinobi’s broader mission to build a trusted national network of retrofit experts, offering tailored and dependable renewable energy solutions for every stage of the homeowner journey.
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.”
