PPAs & negotiation
Understand the obligations that sit behind the electricity price.
A power purchase agreement can commit a business for decades. Pricing, generation, demand, performance and exit provisions interact in ways that a headline tariff cannot show. I help buyers understand those commitments and negotiate a workable allocation of risk.

Illustrative commercial review
How I can help
- Review price structures, indexation, contract duration and the allocation of volume and performance risk.
- Test the relationship between forecast generation, electricity demand and the proposed supply or settlement arrangement.
- Translate material terms into clear commercial consequences and identify priorities for negotiation.
- Support discussions with the counterparty alongside your appointed legal and technical advisers.
What you receive
A commercial review, risk-and-action schedule or negotiating brief, with support through agreed stages. Your legal advisers handle legal interpretation and drafting.
What a review examines
From contract terms to negotiating priorities
A review connects each material term with its commercial risk and a proposed response. These simplified examples illustrate the approach; they are not an exhaustive checklist.
| Clause or term | Commercial risk | Proposed response |
|---|---|---|
| Price adjustment | An unclear indexation formula makes future payments difficult to forecast. | Clarify the index, base date and calculation; test different inflation assumptions and negotiate limits where appropriate. |
| Performance commitments | The agreement leaves uncertainty about what happens when the system underperforms. | Define how performance is measured, the exclusions and the remedies, with technical and legal input. |
| Early termination | Exit payments or continuing obligations may restrict future changes to the site or business. | Test relevant exit scenarios, clarify the calculation and negotiate proportionate obligations. |
