What is a Solar PPA?

A solar power purchase agreement (PPA) is a contract between Fort Energy and a business that agrees to purchase the electricity generated by the solar project. The business pays a fixed price for the electricity, which is typically lower than the cost of electricity from the grid. This can save businesses money on their energy bills and help them reduce their environmental impact.

Depending on the electrical consumption of an entity, the capital investment for a solar system can be significant and not all organisations are able to allocate large amounts of money towards these projects. Commercial PPAs are an ideal solution for an organisation who wants to invest their hard-earned capital into projects more relevant to the service they provide while also being able to move to a renewable source for electricity.
