Sainsbury’s is enticing customers with a Nectar card to make energy-efficient home improvements, offering up to £250 back. The retailer, in partnership with E. ON through their Sainsbury’s Energy brand, is rolling out a deal where customers can receive discounts on solar panel installation and EV chargers.

Shoppers can save £200 on the cost of getting solar panels via E.ON, plus a further £50 off when they purchase an EV charger. This initiative not only aims to reduce immediate energy costs but also to help households become more sustainable by producing their own electricity. Savings could be substantial, as solar panels can shave off up to £713 annually from electricity expenses, reports the Express.

Sainsbury’s said: “We know many of you are already taking steps to reduce your energy bills and carbon footprint, but there are some big leaps you can make that could have a long-term impact. We are here to help you invest in your future with exclusive savings.

“As a Sainsbury’s Energy customer you can enjoy exclusive discounts on home energy upgrades through E.ON. Get up to £200 off solar panels and batteries. Plus, save £50 on an EV charger for your home.”

While the perks focus on providing value to Nectar cardholders, including the opportunity to accumulate more points with every bill, it reflects a broader push towards eco-friendly living incentives facilitated by loyalty programs.

Nectar customers who switch their energy supply to Sainsbury’s Energy are set to begin accumulating points through their energy bills immediately, as every £1 spent will contribute to their Nectar points balance. These points are redeemable for purchases at Sainsbury’s or with any of Nectar’s partners including Argos, British Airways, Caffe Nero, and Sky.

Sainsbury’s highlights the dual benefits, stating: “By switching to us, you’ll not only benefit from our competitive energy tariffs but also earn valuable Nectar points on your bills. These points add up to real savings on future shopping, so you can enjoy more from your essentials.

“It’s a fantastic way to save money and boost your Nectar points balance, whether you’re an existing Sainsbury’s shopper or new to the Nectar family.

“With Sainsbury’s Energy, you’re getting more than just a great energy tariff. You’re also boosting your Nectar points balance with every bill.”
