Commercial Financing for Solar and Wind Energy Projects

 

Financing is available for your commercial solar or wind renewable energy project.  The energy produced may be for your own business needs or the solar / wind farm project may include making arrangements with a site to host the equipment installation and you then sell the energy through a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA).
 

Typically, the PPA is between the project owner and an investment grade, credit qualified, third party such as a property tenant or the local utility.  If the project owner does not own the property hosting the solar or wind energy equipment, there is a premises lease with the property owner "hosting" the equipment.

 

Let's review your project. Call us today 1-800-503-1972

 

We'll review the primary questions the investment funding community is asking about renewable energy projects and review the prevailing approval criteria. For example:

  • Project summary - location, project timelines and cash flow projections to include:

  • Project developer profile -  Including principal contacts, time in business, project histories and planned installations over the next 12 months.

  • PPA - What is the status of the PPA between the developer and the energy buyer?  Is a final or draft copy available for review?

  • Site - Where will the project be located and what is the status of site ownership and premises leases?  How close is the project to utility transmission lines?  If not nearby, what are the interconnection plans?

  • Utility - What is the status of the local utility sign-off?

  • Environmental Status - What permitting is required in the location?

  • EPC - Has the project developer selected an EPC firm

  • For customer site: Confirm the average retail price of electricity in the state

  • For wind:

    Has a wind study been prepared? If so, how many months of data was collected and by which firm?
