Power Purchase Agreement Solar

"I need a Power Purchase Agreement Solar for a 50MW solar farm in County Cork, Ireland, with a corporate buyer who wants to start purchasing power from March 2025, including provisions for battery storage and green certificates."

Document background
This Power Purchase Agreement Solar template is designed for use in Ireland's renewable energy market, specifically for solar power projects. It serves as the primary commercial agreement between solar power generators and electricity buyers, whether corporate or utility offtakers. The document is essential for projects seeking project finance, as it provides the revenue certainty required by lenders. It includes provisions compliant with Irish electricity market regulations, including the Single Electricity Market (SEM) rules, and accounts for requirements under the Renewable Electricity Support Scheme (RESS) where applicable. The agreement covers all crucial aspects from power sale obligations and pricing to technical requirements and environmental attributes, while incorporating specific Irish law requirements and market practices. It's particularly relevant for new solar developments but can be adapted for operational assets, and includes options for both behind-the-meter and grid-connected projects.
