The PPA Solar Lease agreement is designed for situations where a solar system provider wishes to install, own, and operate a solar power system on a customer's property in Australia, selling the generated electricity back to the property owner or occupier. This arrangement enables businesses to access renewable energy without significant upfront capital investment. The document structure accommodates various commercial scenarios while ensuring compliance with Australian energy regulations, property laws, and consumer protection requirements. It includes comprehensive provisions for system installation, maintenance, electricity pricing, property access rights, and risk allocation, making it suitable for both large-scale commercial installations and medium-sized business applications. The agreement type is particularly relevant in the current Australian market where businesses are increasingly seeking sustainable energy solutions while managing capital expenditure.
