A power purchase agreement (PPA) is a contract between electricity suppliers and consumers, or ‘providers’ and buyers’, allowing one to buy power from the other. In most cases, electricity companies buy excess power back from self-producing, independent companies, such as those using solar, wind, or generating electricity.
PPA’s allow companies to generate extra revenue from their excess power supply, which would otherwise go to waste. This, in turn, helps utility companies attain electricity at a lower cost than producing it themselves.
Generally, a PPA consists of the buyer (a utility company) and the seller (your business), also known as the ‘Independent Power Producer’ (IPP), entering into a contract.
A PPA or IPP agreement is usually formed on a long-term contract basis, meaning your business could generate steady, reliable revenue over the long term.
THE BENEFITS OF A POWER PURCHASE AGREEMENT
Guaranteed Revenue
Power Purchase Agreements are generally entered into on fixed, long-term agreements with either utility companies or government sectors.
This means you could receive guaranteed, steady revenue for your excess power from trusted, stable sources.
Delivering Guaranteed Quantities and Prices
PPA’s can be used by government sectors when planning projects to determine a fixed price for energy that would otherwise be subject to forecast. This helps public-sector projects predict their own costs in turn.
For you, the supplier, this means a fixed income over a projected timescale, allowing for a more accurate profit projection.
