Purchase renewable power with a

Macquarie solar PPAMacquarie Principal Finance

Reduce emissions and save on your electricity costs with a solar power purchase agreement

A solar power purchase agreement (PPA) from Macquarie allows you to reduce your carbon emissions and your electricity bill by going ‘off grid’ for a proportion, or potentially all, of your electricity consumption during the day.

Macquarie will install, own and operate the solar photovoltaic system. We utilise only proven technologies with long operational track records that require minimal ongoing maintenance and limited business interruption at your sites.

How it works

A solar photovoltaic system is installed on your premises. We pay to install, own, maintain and run it. You have no upfront and maintenance costs.

During the day, the solar installation generates power that is first consumed by you. Any excess can be exported to the grid.

Power generated is 100% renewable and zero-carbon. Pricing is via a long-term PPA with Macquarie.

At the end of the agreement, you can either buy the panels at a pre-agreed price or Macquarie will remove the installation from your premises.
