What is a PPA?

A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is a contract where a clean energy company installs and maintains solar panels or batteries on a customer’s property without requiring any initial payment. The customer then buys the electricity generated at a fixed, often discounted price, for a long period, usually between 10 and 25 years. This setup helps lower energy costs, reduces carbon footprint, and removes the need for the customer to invest capital or handle maintenance.

FAQs

Common Solar Storage PPA questions

A Solar Storage Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is a financial arrangement that enables businesses to install solar panels or battery storage systems without any upfront costs. Instead of buying the equipment outright, the business agrees to purchase the electricity generated by the system at a fixed, often discounted rate over a long-term contract. This approach makes renewable energy more accessible by eliminating large initial investments and providing predictable, lower energy expenses. By leveraging a Solar Storage PPA, businesses can reduce operating costs, support sustainability goals, and benefit from clean energy without the risks and responsibilities of ownership.

A Solar Storage Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is especially beneficial for high-energy-use businesses such as manufacturers, warehouses, retailers, data centres, and farms. This agreement allows these organizations to purchase solar-generated electricity combined with energy storage without upfront capital investment. By entering into a Solar Storage PPA, businesses can secure long-term energy savings, enhance sustainability credentials, and reduce reliance on grid electricity. Additionally, integrating solar storage improves energy efficiency and resilience, leading to better Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) ratings. Overall, this model supports businesses seeking cost-effective, reliable, and environmentally responsible energy solutions.

A Solar Storage Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) offers significant benefits for commercial energy users seeking long-term value. Primarily, it requires zero upfront cost, allowing businesses to adopt solar energy without capital expenditures. Users benefit from discounted, fixed energy rates, providing predictable savings and protection against market volatility. The agreement typically includes free lifetime maintenance, ensuring optimal system performance and reducing operational complications. Additionally, installing solar storage improves a building’s Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating, enhancing property value and compliance. Most importantly, it supports substantial carbon reduction, aligning with sustainability goals and regulatory requirements, making Solar Storage PPAs an economically and environmentally sound investment.

To provide you with a tailored PPA proposal, we need some essential details about your business and energy consumption:

  1. Site Address

  2. Company/Landlord Name

  3. Tenancy Type (freehold/leasehold)

  4. 12 Months Annual Consumption Data (preferably with 30-minute half-hourly billing data)

  5. Current Utility Rates (daytime & nighttime rates)

  6. Current Energy Contract End Date

Once we receive this information, we can assess your needs and provide a bespoke PPA proposal with transparent savings.

A Solar Storage Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) allows businesses to purchase energy sourced from solar power combined with battery storage without upfront capital investment. During off-peak periods, such as Eco7 hours when electricity rates are lower, excess solar energy is stored in batteries. This stored energy is then discharged during peak rate times, reducing reliance on expensive grid electricity. For businesses with high or fluctuating energy demands, this strategy offers significant cost savings by optimizing energy consumption and minimizing exposure to price volatility. By shifting usage to stored solar power, companies can enhance energy efficiency while benefiting from predictable energy expenses and reduced operational costs.

Solar and battery PPAs typically last between 15 to 25 years, providing your business with long-term, predictable savings. After the contract ends, you will have the option to own the system at no additional cost, continuing to benefit from the renewable energy it generates for many more years.

A Solar Storage Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) offers significant scalability advantages for businesses experiencing growth in energy demand. These agreements are inherently flexible, allowing for the expansion of solar and storage systems as consumption increases. Initially sized to match current energy needs, the system can be augmented by adding more solar panels or battery capacity under the same PPA framework. This adaptability ensures that businesses can continue benefiting from renewable energy without renegotiating entirely new contracts. Consequently, a Solar Storage PPA not only provides cost predictability and sustainability but also evolves alongside the company’s energy requirements, supporting long-term operational efficiency and growth.

Businesses are under increasing pressure to improve their Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) ratings, especially with government regulations tightening. A PPA system can dramatically improve your EPC rating by reducing your reliance on grid electricity and cutting your carbon footprint. A higher EPC rating can help you avoid penalties, increase the market value of your property, and attract sustainability-conscious clients.

If a solar or battery system covered under a Solar Storage Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) stops working, the service provider immediately takes responsibility for diagnosing and resolving the issue. All maintenance and repairs are included free of charge, ensuring that the system is restored promptly without generating unexpected costs for the business. This comprehensive coverage guarantees continuous performance, minimizing downtime and protecting the client’s investment. The PPA structure relieves the business of operational and financial risks related to system failures, allowing focus on core activities while benefiting from reliable, efficient renewable energy generation and storage throughout the contract term.

Getting started is easy!
