How Lightize works

Lightize helps you understand common home energy decisions by comparing options side by side.

There’s no sign-up, no selling, and no pressure.


Step 1: Choose a comparison

Start by selecting the decision you’re trying to make — for example:

  • heat pump vs gas boiler

  • solar panels vs no solar

  • fixed vs variable energy tariffs

Each comparison focuses on one decision at a time.


Step 2: See the trade-offs clearly

Each comparison explains:

  • typical costs and savings (shown as ranges)

  • disruption and practical considerations

  • situations where each option tends to work well

  • common reasons people decide not to proceed

There’s no “best option” — just clearer context.


Step 3: Decide in your own time

Lightize doesn’t ask for your details and doesn’t push next steps.

You can:

  • read the comparison

  • leave

  • come back later

The decision remains yours.


What Lightize does not do

  • No quotes or installers

  • No ranking of deals

  • No data collection

  • No recommendations tied to providers

The site exists to explain, not persuade.


A note on numbers

Costs and savings are shown as ranges because homes, usage, and prices vary.

Lightize avoids precise figures that imply certainty where none exists.
