PPA & Power Procurement Advisory
Understand the commitment behind the tariff.
Develop a power procurement strategy and support PPA evaluation, commercial comparison, negotiation and signing coordination. Compare delivered cost, tenure, offtake commitments, reliability and risk, with legal review separately scoped.
What an engagement can cover
- Consumption profile and existing procurement-portfolio assessment
- Supplier, tariff and commercial-bid comparison
- Delivered-cost, tenure, escalation and offtake-commitment scenarios
- Commercial-risk allocation and PPA negotiation support
- Signing-process coordination, implementation planning and ongoing review
Start with the right information.
Bring recent bills and interval consumption where available, contract demand, current supply contracts, procurement objectives and any supplier term sheets or PPA proposals you want to compare.
A clear engagement process
- Establish the consumption and procurement baseline and the commercial decision criteria.
- Compare supplier proposals on delivered cost, tenure, escalation, offtake commitments, operational fit and risk allocation.
- Support commercial negotiation, signing coordination and an implementation plan, with legal review separately scoped.
Before we begin
Is the quoted PPA tariff the same as my delivered electricity cost?
Not necessarily. Delivered cost can include applicable network charges, losses, surcharges, scheduling, banking, settlement and other commercial items depending on the structure and jurisdiction.
What PPA risks should a buyer review?
Typical areas include contract tenure, escalation, minimum offtake or commitment, change-in-law treatment, supply shortfall, termination, credit support, scheduling and the allocation of regulatory or network-charge changes.
Does Wattscore provide the legal review of the PPA?
Commercial and technical review can identify issues for negotiation, but formal legal drafting or legal opinion should be separately scoped with qualified legal counsel.
Are savings guaranteed?
No. Savings depend on actual consumption, delivered cost, grid tariff changes, contract performance, regulatory charges and the assumptions used in the comparison.
