Commercial structuring: purchase, lease or power purchase agreement
A like-for-like comparison of buying a system outright, leasing it, or buying its output under a power purchase agreement, so that offers structured differently can be compared on the same basis.
When to commission it
- Offers have been received on different commercial models and cannot be compared directly.
- A PPA or lease is proposed with dollar-linked or indexed tariffs.
- The company wants to keep capital expenditure off its balance sheet.
Scope
- Normalisation of offers to a common cost per kWh over the contract term.
- Review of tariff indexation, currency exposure and minimum offtake obligations.
- Analysis of termination, buy-out, transfer and end-of-term provisions.
- Risk allocation for performance, maintenance, insurance and grid changes.
What you receive
- Comparison report with a recommended structure and the reasons for it.
- Term sheet points to negotiate with the preferred provider.
