4 Frequently Asked Questions about "Solar power station PPP"

What is an energy PPP?

For an energy project development a PPP characteristically takes the form of a Design Build Finance Operate (DBFO) arrangement. A typical example of an energy PPP project is the so-called “independent power producer” (IPP) project.

What is an example of an energy PPP project?

A typical example of an energy PPP project is the so-called “independent power producer” (IPP) project. This usually involves the development of a new (greenfield) power generating facility by a private company that sells the power on a wholesale basis to a government utility that distributes the power to individual customers.

What is the difference between a PPP and an IPP?

In the case of IPPs, the assets will belong to the private company, but the power will be sold to the government (or a government power utility) for retail distribution as a public service to customers. For IPPs, the critical form of PPP contract is the PPA between the private power generator and the government purchaser of the power.

Who is responsible for site security in a solar PV project?

Parties should aim to have a complete understanding of the risks involved in physically securing the site and those that will affect the construction and operation of the solar PV project. In solar PV projects the Private Partner will be responsible for day to day site security.
