How a Solar PPA Works

A Power Purchase Agreement is a straightforward arrangement where you benefit from
solar energy without the capital investment or operational responsibilities.

System Design & Quote

We design a solar system tailored to your energy needs and provide a detailed proposal with finance options.

Flexible Finance Agreement

Choose a finance term (typically 5-10 years) with fixed monthly payments. The system is yours from day one.

Installation & Activation

We install the system with minimal disruption. Start generating electricity and savings immediately.

Immediate Tax Benefits

Claim capital allowances and potentially offset the cost against corporation tax from year one.

Full Ownership

After the finance term, you own the asset outright with 15+ years of remaining warranty and free electricity.

Suits Best

A PPA is particularly suited to businesses that want the benefits of solar without the capital outlay or operational responsibilities.

Solar PPA Questions

Common questions about Power Purchase Agreements for commercial solar

What happens at the end of the PPA term?

At the end of the agreement (typically 15-25 years), you have three options: extend the PPA at a renegotiated rate, purchase the system at fair market value, or have it removed at no cost to you. Most businesses choose to purchase or extend.

A PPA is flexible. You pay only for the electricity you use from the solar system. If your consumption decreases, you simply use and pay for less. If it increases, the solar system continues to offset a proportion of your demand.
We are. All monitoring, maintenance, and repairs are included in the PPA at no additional cost to you. This ensures the system performs optimally throughout the contract term.
PPA rates are typically 10-30% below current grid prices and remain fixed for the term. As grid prices rise (historically 3-6% annually), your savings increase each year.
The PPA can typically be transferred to the new owner as part of the property sale. This can enhance property value, as the new owner inherits lower energy costs.
No. The agreed rate per kWh is your only cost. Installation, equipment, monitoring, maintenance, and insurance are all covered within the agreement.
From initial feasibility to system activation typically takes 8-16 weeks, depending on system size and grid connection requirements. We handle all planning and technical aspects.
