Financed PV / ESCo / PPA

Renewable energy without upfront investment

Access renewable energy through long-term agreements, without tying up capital and without managing the technical complexity of the photovoltaic system.

Encore structures solar PV solutions in which the investment, construction and operational management can be handled by Encore. The company benefits from renewable energy, reduces its exposure to market volatility and remains focused on its core business.

The customer does not buy the plant: it uses renewable energy

Encore develops and manages the solution. The company benefits from the energy produced.

Model

Reduce energy costs without investing in the plant

Financed PV allows companies to access the benefits of renewable energy without directly funding the initial investment.

Through ESCo models, PPAs or dedicated energy agreements, Encore can take care of the development, construction and technical management of the solution. The customer purchases renewable energy under defined long-term conditions, with the aim of reducing energy costs, improving protection against market increases and making its sustainability path more concrete.

Key idea

Renewable energy as a service, not as an investment to manage

The solution is designed around the company’s consumption profile. Encore assesses where the energy should be produced, how the agreement should be structured, which technologies should be integrated and how the plant should be managed over time. The customer benefits from renewable energy without having to purchase, build, maintain or administer the system directly.

Economics

Less capital tied up

The company does not need to purchase the plant directly and can allocate capital to other industrial priorities, while still accessing the benefits of solar energy.

Agreements

Defined long-term conditions

Long-term agreements, PPAs or ESCo models can help the customer plan part of its energy expenditure more effectively and reduce the impact of market fluctuations.

Operational simplicity

Management and maintenance by Encore

Encore manages design, construction, monitoring, maintenance and technical operation. The company does not have to handle the day-to-day operation of the plant.

Flexibility

On-site or off-site production

Energy can be produced at the company’s site when suitable surfaces are available, or off-site when space is limited, unavailable or not sufficient.

How it works

From consumption analysis to the energy agreement

The model is built around the specific case, considering consumption patterns, available surfaces, off-site production options, the applicable regulatory framework and economic objectives.

01. Consumption

Analysis of energy bills, load profile, energy needs and the company’s objectives.

02. Production

Assessment of on-site or off-site solutions, including configurations allowed under the applicable regulation.

03. Agreement

Structuring of the ESCo model, PPA or dedicated contract, with long-term conditions agreed in advance.

04. Construction

Development, design, permitting, construction, grid connection and commissioning.

05. Management

Monitoring, maintenance, technical management, checks and operational continuity handled by Encore.

Production

Renewable energy even when you have no suitable surfaces available

A financed PV solution does not necessarily depend on the availability of rooftops, carports or areas at the company’s own site.

When suitable space is available, Encore can assess photovoltaic systems located at the consumption site. When surfaces are not sufficient, the solution can be structured through off-site plants, PPAs, remote self-consumption or other configurations allowed by the applicable regulation. In both cases, the starting point remains the company’s consumption profile.

When surfaces are available

Plant at the company’s site

Rooftops, carports or available areas can become energy infrastructure serving the company’s consumption, without necessarily requiring the customer to make a direct investment.

When surfaces are not available

Off-site production

Remote plants and dedicated energy agreements make it possible to access renewable energy even when the company’s site does not have suitable or sufficient surfaces.

Benefits

Economic, operational and environmental benefits

The financed model makes solar PV accessible even when direct investment is not the preferred or most efficient option.

Cost reduction

Access to renewable energy can help reduce energy costs and improve the predictability of expenditure.

Protection from price increases

Long-term agreements help reduce exposure to volatility in the energy market.

Concrete sustainability

Renewable energy reduces emissions and makes the company’s energy transition path more measurable.

Technology

Storage and energy management to increase the value of the solution

When useful, the project can integrate technologies designed to optimise production, consumption and the continuity of the economic benefit.

Battery storage, monitoring, load control and energy management can increase the value of renewable production, improve the use of energy and make the energy agreement more effective over time.

A model built around the specific case

No two companies have the same consumption profile, constraints or opportunities. This is why Encore assesses each case individually, determining whether the most effective solution is on-site, off-site, with storage, through a PPA, through an ESCo model or through other configurations allowed by the applicable regulation.
