Funding Options
Detailed analysis is provided with flexibility to change parameters for scenario planning. Our collaborative, transparent and conservative calculations surrounding CAPEX, Financed and PPA systems provide seamless decision-making.
Capital Expenditure (CAPEX)
The CAPEX required for renewable and low Carbon Technologies is variable on a project-by-project basis. Along with the carbon benefits, the efficiency of generating power at source provides significant savings to the end user. The CAPEX option allows your organisation to own an energy generating asset from day one; providing an instant reduction in operating expenses. As the system becomes an asset it also means that the expenditure hasn’t left the organisation but has moved from the Profit and Loss account to the Balance Sheet, thus meaning the retention on monies that would normally be lost via energy company invoices. The CAPEX option delivers a typical payback period between 3 and 5 years and provides the greatest level of savings
Asset Finance Agreements
Smart financing, along with a high-quality installation, can ensure electricity savings match the cost of capital and interest payments. This can yield a neutral or positive cashflow from day one of the project. There are multiple asset agreements available and, depending on the specific requirements of the organisation, can be either on or off balance sheet; all of which will allow ownership of the asset to be held with the company at the right time.
Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)
A PPA enables a business to install a renewable energy source with no upfront, or ongoing maintenance costs, allowing businesses to save money and reduce their carbon footprint from day one. The PPA is a long-term procurement contract between EGUK and the end user, with contract lengths typically between 10 – 25 years. In simplistic terms, you grant rights to allow EGUK to install a renewable technology system on your site and the end user agrees to purchase energy at an agreed rate which is always lower than buying from the grid. PPA contracts tend to have a fixed inflation rate ensuring accurate budgeting/forecasting, whereas the grid commodity costs can be extremely volatile. The long-term savings are approximately 50% less than the savings you gain via CAPEX, but typically provide a 30% saving against grid supplied electricity.
