Power Purchase Agreements

For commercial applications above 200KW, A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) allows larger organizations to completely eliminate the upfront capital costs associated with a solar deployment.

Under a PPA, our clients pay only for the electricity from the solar array—not the solar equipment, installation or any ongoing maintenance. A  PPA arrangement allows you to reduce your carbon emissions and lock into long term, predictably priced power for the life of the agreement.   Imagine, having the security of locking in your company’s electric rates for the next 15, 20, or even 25 years.

ESI, Inc. develops, installs and maintains the solar facilities located on our client’s (host) rooftops or their properties.  We install, test, operate and maintain the systems for the life of the agreement.

A PPA consists of the following components:

  • Development: After a thorough site survey and energy audit, a solar installation is designed and optimized for your facility’s energy needs.
  • Construction: ESI engineers and installs all system components eliminating any need for capital investments or manage multiple contractors.
  • Maintenance: ESI provides all necessary maintenance, upgrades and repairs so you can concentrate on your business—not on becoming a solar energy expert.
  • Incentive and Tax Credit Management: ESI completes and tracks all filings for tax credits, government incentives and any other green attributes available for your project.
  • Renewable Energy Credits (REC’s): We will manage the distribution of Renewable Energy Credits as agreed upon in your contracted PPA.
  • Promotion and Marketing Support: Our team will help you promote your commitment to solar power.
