FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT IS A SPLIT INCENTIVE?
A barrier to getting solar PV on a roof is known as a split incentive. This term is commonly used in the energy industry and refers to the situation where it makes economic sense to install a solar PV system, but the person responsible for installing the system and the person who will benefit from the system have different drivers. A simple example is a rented property where the property owner is responsible for installing the system, but the tenant will benefit from the cheaper energy.
WHO IS THE ASSET OWNER / SOLAR PV OWNER OPERATOR?
An asset owner or solar PV owner operator is the entity that owns the solar PV system. They may be the owner of the property or a third party that owns and operates a solar PV system on someone else's property.
WHAT IS A PPA?
A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is a contract to purchase energy from a generation unit. Traditionally this term has been used to refer to a contract with a grid scale generator such as a coal powered generator, wind farm, solar farm or a hydropower plant. However, PPA can also be used to describe the contract to buy energy from a small-scale system, such as, an on roof solar PV system.
