Fixed PPAs
Fix a price or pricing structure for an agreed term, so revenues are more predictable as wholesale prices move. Best for generators that want greater certainty, simpler forecasting, and reduced exposure to day to day market volatility.
Flexible PPAs
Sell in stages and manage price risk over time, with purchasing decisions aligned to your risk appetite and forecast confidence. Best for generators with an active approach to market exposure.
Corporate PPAs
Secure longer-term offtake by linking generation to business demand through a corporate structure. Best for projects seeking bankable, long-duration revenues and for supporting enhanced renewable credentials.
-
A PPA (Power Purchase Agreement) is a long-term contract between a generator and another party, typically from 1-15 years. This sets out the amount of power that will be bought and the price that you will be paid for it.
-
To supply electricity to BarbicanPower, your generation capacity must exceed 0.5 GWh per year.
-
A fixed PPA prioritises revenue certainty, typically through a fixed price or fixed pricing structure for an agreed term. A flexible PPA gives you more control over market exposure by selling power in stages or against an index, which can improve outcomes but involves more price risk and more active decision making. A corporate PPA links your generation to business demand through a corporate offtake structure, usually for a longer term, and is often used to support bankable revenues and stronger renewable claims.
-
PPAs are used by independent generators who need a route to market for exported electricity. They can suit new build projects seeking a bankable offtake, or operational assets looking to improve terms or simplify administration. The right structure depends on your technology, metering and settlement, and how much price risk you want to retain.
-
Timelines depend on metering and settlement readiness and the contract structure. Once we have the required asset information and you are operationally ready to export, onboarding can be progressed quickly. We will confirm the key steps upfront, including any industry registrations, data flows, and the target date for going live.
Selling Energy
Secure a route to market for your generation.
Choosing how you sell power is a commercial decision. It affects revenue certainty, risk exposure, and how actively you want to manage market prices and routes to market.
BarbicanPower offers three ways to sell. Fixed PPAs suit generators that want clearer revenues for an agreed period. Flexible PPAs suit generators that want to sell in stages and manage market timing in line with a defined risk appetite. Corporate PPAs provide a route to long-term offtake, linking generation to business demand and supporting stronger renewable claims.
We will help you choose the right fit based on your technology, metering and settlement setup, commissioning timeline, and financing and governance requirements.
