Prepaid Power Purchase Agreement

"I need a Prepaid Power Purchase Agreement for a 50MW solar facility in Ontario, with a 15-year term starting March 2025, including provisions for Indigenous consultation and environmental attributes transfer, where the purchaser will prepay 30% of the total contract value."

Document background
The Prepaid Power Purchase Agreement is a specialized contract used in the Canadian energy market when a power purchaser wishes to secure long-term power supply through an upfront payment structure. This arrangement provides price certainty for the purchaser and upfront capital for the generator, making it particularly attractive for new power generation projects or long-term supply agreements. The document incorporates federal and provincial regulatory requirements, addresses technical and operational aspects of power generation and delivery, and includes specific provisions for prepayment mechanisms, performance guarantees, and risk allocation. It's commonly used in renewable energy projects, industrial power procurement, and large-scale commercial operations where securing long-term power supply is crucial.
