Renewable Exchange
Transforming the way renewable energy is traded in the marketplace
Driven by innovation, we have helped Renewable Exchange create a better way. A way that is transforming how renewable energy is exchanged by providing an intelligent, data-driven PPA marketplace coupled with expert consultancy.
The new platform gives clients a better choice than ever before through smarter insight and greater transparency, and with a more connected market it offers more opportunities open to more people.
It's a brighter way of selling renewables that puts clients first.
Renewable Energy asset owners are spending many hours managing their PPA (Power Purchase Agreement) network, only to miss the best deals.
PPA s can be presented in different formats. And contracts are usually not easy to compare.
Assessing the whole market is time consuming without connections with off-takers.
Obtaining the best price for your energy – the new platform provides energy generators with a simple method of PPA tender creation
Large market place – the platform opens up the market to over 40 off-takers.
Easy comparison – PPA s can often be presented in different formats. And contracts are usually not easy to compare. We created a smart pricing engine to compare PPA quotes with like-for-like figures and view legal contract summaries that make quote comparison easy.
The platform is scalable as new generators and off-takers come on board and is primed to disrupt the market and improve the PPA tendering process for generators and off-takers alike.
Renewable Exchange won the Innovation award at the Renewable Energy Association 2019 Awards! Up against a shortlist of incredible companies such as: Nissan Motor Corporation, EDF Energy, Lime-jump, Centrica, Progressive Energy Limited, Solecco Solar Ltd, UK Power Networks & The Phoenix Works and come out the winner is an amazing achievement, and testimony to the founders vision and the design and implementation of the solution by Newicon.
Their success validates the work all the team has put in from day one, and continues to put in to ensure that the PPA market is in the best possible shape for a subsidy free world where the PPA is the primary source of revenue for renewables projects.
Not done there, Renewable Exchange have big plans for the future; watch this space!
Their attention to detail and ability to break down complex content into digestible, engaging visuals is exactly what we needed.
Working with the Design team and the wider New Icon team has been a fantastic experience. Their attention to detail and ability to break down complex content into digestible, engaging visuals is exactly what we needed. Every edit exceeded expectations and truly reflected what we had envisioned for the final prototype. Highly recommend! "
Each meeting brought real progress and meaningful change, and the team dynamic was warm, collaborative, and easy to work with.
From the very first interaction, New Icon stood out. Their combination of clear, concise documentation and an explanatory video was genius—it gave us immediate clarity and confidence. The Discovery process, especially the Agile Architecture, felt like a genuine offer to help, not a hard sell. Each meeting brought real progress and meaningful change, and the team dynamic was warm, collaborative, and easy to work with. The use of Figma to showcase their design-led approach was impressive, and the achievable PoC cost made things feel within reach. One of the biggest wins? We retained the IP. That was huge. New Icon didn’t just understand our problems, they explained them back to us better than we could ourselves. That alone gave us massive trust in the team and the process. "
New lcon’s deliverables have exceeded our expectations.
We would like to thank the New Icon team for the work accomplished. OnePRESS will be the first wireless safety critical opportunity that will use a mobile application to go to an In-Service Evaluation with Airbus airline customers. As such, there was no precedent for the Landing Gear Design Office to start from. Newicon quickly understood that their expertise could complement our capability to compile design documentation and adapted their process to suit our needs. New lcon’s deliverables have exceeded our expectations. "
Newicon understood our needs, ensuring solutions were current and future-proofed
Ethicall have worked with Newicon for approximately 10 years. During this time Newicon have worked with us on various projects, but predominantly they have helped us design and build a bespoke telephone fundraising software system which encompasses all the nuanced and niche elements of our business. They really took the time to understand what we needed as a fundraising call centre and then constantly revisited this with us to ensure it was still fit for purpose and future proof. The engineers working on the project have always been mindful of building in stages with regular testing and approval from users – they are also able to communicate in non-technical speak – which is always useful for those of us not from a technical background. Newicon’s recent introduction of project managers has enhanced their services further. "
Newicon consistently exceeds expectations, driving innovation as a seamless extension of our business.
Newicon’s ability to over deliver against our expectations and to help drive our innovation has made them an extension of our own business.

You’ve understood the project quicker and got further with the design in 3 weeks than our previous company did in a year.
I’m very impressed with how you’ve interpreted the brief and interviews!
You have captured the use case and functionality really well. "
You've done an amazing job of taking our concept and actualising it into something much more real!
This process has cemented our concepts into requirements, plans and something much easier to step forward with, both internally and as something we can tell the story to others. We've been particularly impressed with how you've taken a fairly niche topic and run with detailed concepts and clearly understood what we are aiming for! "
We're miles ahead of where I expected us to be at this stage, and we've all really appreciated the effort you've put in.
Everyone is really, really happy and pleased with what you've put together, blown away! We love the simplicity of the prototype. "
The project is well thought through, smartly taking into account every little request we had. Which is amazing, I love that!
I've been using the prototype to pitch the idea with potential clients and the feedback has been really good so far. "
We really love the overall look of this
It's a very clean simple interface which still clearly conveys a lot of really important information, so thank you! "
Very happy with the end results and designs for the new features
New Icons redesigns brought the app layout up to date which was amazing to implement over the last year alongside integrating new products into the app. Meeting face-to-face meant that New Icon could properly understand the requirements and turn them into fully functional designs that added to the overall user experience. Very happy with the end results and designs for the new features. "
