QUANTAI ENERGY / PPA FOR BUSINESSES

Solar power for your business under a PPA

An investor finances construction and owns the plant at your site. Your business buys the solar electricity actually delivered under a power purchase agreement (PPA). QuantAI Energy helps assess the site, develop the technical concept and coordinate the project model.

01 / YOUR PROJECT

Which sites suit a PPA?

We first assess whether the site can accommodate a plant and use its output. We then compare the technical concept, project economics and the terms of a long-term arrangement.

  • A business with consistent daytime electricity demand
  • Usable roof space, land or parking area
  • Clear site-use rights and a long-term operating outlook
  • Available load, tariff and connection information
02 / SCOPE AND RESPONSIBILITIES

Who is responsible for what?

The contract defines the allocation of costs, responsibilities and risks after the site assessment.

01

Your business

Provides site data and agrees site use and access. Buys delivered electricity; demand and operating requirements are agreed in the contract.

02

The investor

Reviews the project, agrees financing and owns the plant. Arranges construction, monitoring and maintenance within its contractual responsibilities.

03

QuantAI Energy

Carries out the initial assessment and coordinates technical development and the parties involved. Its scope and role in design, construction and operation are agreed separately.

03 / PROCESS

From site assessment to energy supply

  1. Demand and site review

    Review the load profile, tariff, site documents and usable area. Make an initial assessment of on-site use of solar energy.

  2. Technical and financial assessment

    Select capacity, location and connection options. Develop a generation scenario and the terms for investor consideration.

  3. Agreement and contract

    Agree the tariff, indexation, term, metering, access, maintenance and arrangements for changes in demand.

  4. Construction and operation

    Once contracts and financing are agreed, design, installation and commissioning are arranged. Metering follows the agreed supply and billing arrangements.

04 / TERMS

What to agree before signing a PPA

Investor funding allows a business to buy solar electricity without buying the plant itself. Site preparation and changes to existing infrastructure require a separate allocation of costs.

  • Contract term, tariff and indexation
  • Delivery point, metering and billing arrangements
  • Reduced demand, shutdowns and generation limits
  • Site access, maintenance, insurance and liability
  • Buyout or transfer, early termination and site reinstatement

A PPA proposal depends on site assessment and investor agreement. Sending an enquiry does not approve financing, fix a tariff or create contractual obligations.

WORKED EXAMPLE

Compare the cost of the same energy volume

A one-year illustration. All three inputs below are assumptions that explain the calculation, not current tariffs or a PPA offer.

Annual solar electricity delivered
500,000 kWh/year
Comparable grid tariff
50 KZT/kWh
PPA tariff
40 KZT/kWh
The same volume at the grid tariff
25,000,000 KZT/year
Payment under the PPA
20,000,000 KZT/year
Illustrative cost difference
5,000,000 KZT/year

500,000 × (50 − 40) = KZT 5,000,000 per year

The difference applies only to the stated solar energy volume. Remaining electricity demand is billed separately. Both tariffs are compared on the same tax basis; indexation, additional payments and changes in grid charges are excluded here. The actual effect depends on the load profile and contract terms.

05 / SITE DATA

What to share for an assessment

Share the information you already have. We will identify any missing data after the initial review.

Assess PPA suitability ↗
  • Address, site type and operating schedule
  • At least 3 months of consumption; ideally 12 months and an hourly load profile
  • Current tariff and the electricity bill structure
  • Roof, plot or parking plan and site-use information
  • Technical conditions, allocated capacity, single-line diagram and connection details
  • Planned site-use period and expected changes in demand
06 / QUESTIONS

Before the project starts

Who owns the solar plant?

In this model the investor owns the plant. A buyout or transfer, its timing and price apply only if the parties include them in the contract.

Does the business need to fund construction?

The investor finances the solar plant itself. The parties need to allocate site preparation, roof strengthening, network changes and other associated works separately.

Is the PPA tariff always lower than the grid tariff?

The commercial benefit must be calculated. The comparison considers tariffs on the same basis, indexation, the load profile and all contractual payments. There is no universal discount.

What happens if the business uses less electricity?

Weekends, shutdowns and lower demand are considered before signing. Billing rules, generation limits and any minimum volumes need to be expressly agreed.
