What is a Solar Operating Lease?

Solar Leasing or PPA?

The major differences between a solar lease and power purchase agreement is the duration of the arrangements and pricing model. With a PPA, you make monthly payments per unit of electricity delivered. With a lease, there are predetermined payments, regardless of how much electricity your business consumes.

While both a PPA and a solar lease arrangement involve zero capital outlay, there are a number of aspects to consider to gauge the best solution for your business.
