Edison Energy and Altenex Announce Renewable Energy PPA for Market Use
May 19,2016
Altenex, an Edison Energy company, announced a proprietary Renewable Energy Purchase Agreement (REPA) used for commercial, industrial and institutional clients.
The Altenex REPA has been specifically designed to mitigate companies’ risks in procuring large-scale, off-site renewable energy supply to avoid some of the most common pitfalls that can occur in this kind of transaction. An issue as simple as scheduling ongoing maintenance of a wind or solar facility can have major production/economic performance implications for the off-taker if a facility is down during peak-production/peak-usage times.
Other major areas of contract-addressable risk include project operations, volume/resource considerations, operations, market price protection, counterparty risk, renewable energy certificate devaluation, regulatory change, intermittency, and hedge effectiveness.
