Below are samples of the common key clean energy project agreements. Email us if you have questions about what template to use with a particular type of project.

POWER PURCHASE AGREEMENT

The PPA details the terms of purchase for power from a clean energy producing system. In addition to defining the purchase price and the terms of service, the PPA also helps to efficiently manage any disputes between producers and offtakers.

SITE LEASE

The power system’s success depends on access to adequate land and facilities. The ground lease ensures that the array will be allowed to remain undisturbed on the selected plot, with appropriate facilities and rights for power transmission and maintenance.

MODEL FIT ROOF LEASE AGREEMENT

Establishing site control for a rooftop project differs from groundmount but it’s still equally important. This rooftop lease gives you the rights to access, own, and operate your system undisturbed on the site owner’s roof for the duration of your PPA. It’s ideal for feed-in-tariff (“FIT”) projects.

ENGINEERING, PROCUREMENT AND CONSTRUCTION AGREEMENT

A well written EPC contract is essential for developers working with independent contractors to complete a project. The EPC contract provides instructions for contractors about their responsibilities, and helps to keep a project on schedule and in conformity with a developer’s plans.

O&M AGREEMENT

The O&M Agreeement is essential for setting forth the scope, warranties, timing, and price for the ongoing operational and maintenance needs of a project.
