Hybrid power purchase agreements (PPAs) are becoming a preferred solution for structuring deals that capture the full value of both assets. It also includes contracting strategies for OBO projects. . A working understanding of contract development best practices and access to standardized solar contract templates and request for proposals (RFPs) will help reduce the time and cost associated with this process by improving project transparency and accountability while accelerating solar. . The Blueprint How-To Guides, in contrast, provide additional detail to help practitioners get going. Awardees can reference these more granular steps, recommendations, and resources within each key activity as they get started implementing their EECBG projects and programs. The co-location of renewable generation and energy storage demands new contractual arrangements to make such projects commercially viable. This article by Jack Rankin, Miguel Valderrama and Brian Knowles of Pexapark discuss the hybrid PPAs for renewable generation co-locational with storage.
