GRANT NICHOLSON

“You don’t fix broken industries by playing by their rules”

Founder, Entrepreneur
& The Renewables Guy

Grant Nicholson is the founder and chair of Pharaoh Capital, and the driving force behind Inicio — a solar business helping energy-intensive organisations cut costs and hit sustainability targets without the upfront capital outlay.

For years, Grant quietly built businesses behind the scenes. But with the world finally catching up to the value of asset-backed, recurring revenue in renewables, it’s time to scale.

Businesses I Own:

£24M REVENUE

Grant’s model is simple: install solar systems on commercial buildings, let clients save from day one under a long-term agreement, and collect reliable cash flow on the other side. It’s a win for the client, a win for the planet, and a long-term asset play for investors.

After bootstrapping to over £24M in revenue — with projects delivered for large national clients, including CBRE, Yodel and other major PLCs — Grant is now raising debt capital to scale faster and own more of the energy transition.
