Power Purchase Agreement for Solar Energy
Find out how a power purchase agreement (PPA) for solar energy works and how it can improve your energy consumption.
A power purchase agreement or PPA agreement for solar energy allows you to partner with Verogy to build a solar energy system. As your power purchase agreement provider, we take on all the risks and costs associated with solar systems while you purchase the energy from us at a discounted rate.
How Do Power Purchase Agreements Work?
If you’re wondering what a solar PPA agreement is, it’s an agreement you enter into with your solar system developer. When you enter into a solar PPA, you and your solar partner build your solar panel system together. Once the system is built, your solar partner owns the system, and you purchase your power from them. So if you enter into a PPA with Verogy, we own the solar system, and you purchase its energy from us monthly at a fixed electricity price.
What Benefits Does a PPA Offer?
Solar PPAs offer many benefits, such as the way it keeps your monthly energy costs low. Your solar provider keeps the payments low by using tax credits to cover the solar system’s upfront costs. Also, when you partner with us, we take on all the system’s financial and operation and maintenance (O&M) responsibilities. Your solar power purchase agreement allows you to power your facility with renewable energy while reducing your investment costs and electricity bills.
How Does a PPA Different From a Solar Lease?
PPAs and solar leases are similar, but not the same. When you enter into a solar lease, your solar developer rents your rooftop or open space to host the solar panel system on With a PPA, you simply purchase the solar power generated by the system. A solar lease involves the entire system, while a PPA deals with the energy it produces.

Using a PPA vs. Buying Your Solar Panel System Outright
How do you know whether you should enter into a power purchase agreement or buy your solar panel system outright? It’s best for you to buy your solar system outright if you have cash or a loan available to help you finance your solar investment. A healthy tax appetite also makes purchasing the system a viable option for your organization. If you don’t have access to cash or a loan, and your organization doesn’t have enough of a tax appetite to justify purchasing your system, a PPA is the right option for you.
Remember that no one solar financing option is better than the other. PPAs, solar leases, and solar purchasing are all available because different organizations have different financing needs. When you partner with Verogy, we help you determine which financing option meets your financing needs while letting your organization access solar power.
