What we offer
The DABITRON’s strategy for Net Zero emissions is to implement local projects of hybrid energy through renewable power purchase agreement - PPA (bilateral agreements) that promote the supply of 100% renewable energy at competitive and stable prices to large customers who are committed to a sustainable consumption to reduce its environmental impact for help to make the future more sustainable for everyone.
A power purchase agreement (PPA), or electricity power agreement, is a long-term agreement to purchase clean energy from a specific asset at a predetermined price between a renewable energy producer and a consumer (usually a utility, government, company or energy communities).
By signing a DABITRON Renewable PPA, you purchase a specific volume of clean electricity over a fixed period of time, generated by a 100% renewable source 24/7, from a DABITRON Renewable Power Plant (whether it is a be Green Hydrogen Power Plant or a Microgrid plant).
PPAs may last anywhere between 15 and 20 years, during which time the power purchaser buys energy at a pre-negotiated price.
With a growing number of businesses looking to reduce their carbon footprint, PPAs have become incredibly popular. Each agreement is a win-win for both parties: the renewable energy producer secures a buyer for their green electricity, while the customer reduces their CO² emissions and secures their long-term electricity costs. On a broader level, PPAs are benefiting the environment as they are enabling green companies like DABITRON to add more clean energy to the grid and reduce the reliance on fossil fuels.
Why should I consider a PPA sooner rather than later?
PPA prices are currently below market levels and as we know, energy prices continue to rise, so now would be an opportune time to find out more. Whilst a PPA goes a long way to meet a business’s net-zero targets, it should be considered amongst a range of extra measures in a holistic green strategy. With a perfect blend, you can balance the purchase of renewable energy with on-site energy reduction measures, on-site generation and staff engagement programmes to maximise the benefits and reduce your carbon footprint whilst strengthening your green credentials.
On-site PPA.
Off-site PPA
Type of PPA: Fixed volume for defined period.
Under this arrangement, the generator agrees to a predetermined production volume that must be delivered in a specified time interval, which is sized according to the generator’s seasonal P50 production profile, in exchange for a pre-agreed fixed price per MWh for delivery over the term of the PPA. If the actual production is below the predetermined production volume, the generator would be responsible for procuring the missing volumes from the market. Prices under this type of arrangement tend to be higher to reflect the volume delivery obligations, the generators bare volume risk.
It's possible to structure a fixed volume PPA with a more flexible delivery profile, for example annual time intervals (“Fixed volume for defined period”), in which the generator agrees to deliver certain volumes in a certain time frame in exchange for a pre-agreed fixed price.
The generator has the obligation to deliver the total predetermined volumes in the specified timeframe, but is not constrained in terms of the timing of the delivery, no production profile risk.
Volume delivery obligation and delivery profile:
Annual pre-defined volumes.
Delivery profile obligation within the predefined timeframe but no matter when.
Pre-agreed fixed or floor price
Volume risk: Yes
Production profile risk: No
Merchant risk: No
Type of PPA: A pay-as-produced PPA.
Under a Pay-as-produced PPAs, the off-taker agrees to purchase all or a percentage of the produced volumes at a pre-agreed fixed price, regardless of the level of the actual production. As there is no target production volume, the generator does not take any volume or profile risk. In a Pay-as-produced the off-taker bears the volume risk in the event of underproduction. Where available, pay-as-produced PPA's are appropriate for up to 100% of P50 production.
Volume delivery obligation and delivery profile:
Pre-agreed % of production at a pre-agred fixed or floor price.
No volume delivery obligation or delivery profile obligation.
Volume risk: No
Production profile risk: No
Merchant risk: No
A DABITRON Renewable Physical PPA signifies a durable agreement where a business, often known as the corporate off-taker ("Offtaker"), enters into a prolonged arrangement (typically exceeding 15 to 20 years) with a renewable power producer ("Generator"). This entails accepting some or all energy produced by the generator's facility or plant network at a predetermined price per MWh.
This PPA outlines provisions for electricity sale and purchase, allocation of applicable renewable energy benefits (like green certificates), and regulations governing the transaction.
There are two contractual structures for the DABITRON Renewable Physical PPA:
A DABITRON Renewable PPA contract that enables to supply 100% for its everyday energy requirements a business.
A DABITRON Renewable PPA contract that enables to supply only a part of a company's energy needs.
The private wire DABITRON Renewable PPAs, deal with the direct sale of electricity from the DABITRON renewable power producer ("Generator") to a corporate off-taker ("Offtaker"). Power is typically sold straight from the generator's facility to the corporate off-taker, bypassing the traditional national power grid.
In this model, the energy-generating facility is typically located at or near the corporate off-taker's assets and usually supplies power exclusively to the off-taker.
Private Wire DABITRON Renewable PPAs are commonly utilized in scenarios where the corporate off-taker seeks to secure its independent power source—for instance, for factory operations or off-grid locations—or in regions where the grid system's reliability is questionable.
Thus, Private Wire DABITRON Green PPAs serve as a practical solution for businesses desiring control over their energy source and supporting the growth of localized renewable energy.

Power Purchase Agreements ("PPA") are usually long-term power supply agreements concluded between a power producer ("Generator") and a power consumer ("Offtaker").
If there are bilateral contracts for the supply of green electricity between plant operators ("Generator") and consuming companies ("Offtaker"), these are referred to as corporate PPAs. In the Power Purchase Agreements, the contractual partners can determine the terms of delivery very individually. The contract contents include, for example:
A bilateral contract is an agreement between two parties in which each side agrees to fulfill their side of the bargain. Typically, bilateral agreement is a agrement between producer ("Generator") and consumers ("Offtaker") for the sale and supply of energy.
The RD-Law modifies article 44.1 of the LSE, allowing any consumer, whether or not a direct consumer of the market, to acquire energy through bilateral contracting with a producer, which represents an advance in the development of sales agreements energy or (PPA), by eliminating the requirement that said consumers be considered as subjects of the system, with the burdens and requirements that this entails.
In this regard, the explanatory memorandum of the RD-Law states that these measures are aimed at eliminating regulatory barriers that prevent agents from making the necessary decisions so that the transition to a decentralized economy is carried out as quickly as possible, giving their Once investors trust, in such a way that they can mobilize the investments required for the energy transition in the 2030 horizon.
A Corporate Power Purchase Agreement (Corporate PPA) signifies a lasting agreement where a company commits to procure electricity directly from an energy producer. It is a variant from the conventional method of buying power from licensed power producer ("Generator"), often termed as utility Power Purchase Agreements.
Typically, it is a contract between a power user ("Offtaker") and a power producer ("Generator"), whereby the parties agree to buy power at a pre-agreed pricing mechanism for a given time period. The contract governs the commercial terms of the electricity sale. Under a corporate PPA, the buyer ("Offtaker") is a business with often significant import electricity requirements, as opposed to a utility company purchasing power for onward selling to customers.
Under a corporate PPA, an offtaker can purchase power either from an on/near-site project (known as behind-the-meter and private wire respectively) or from an offsite project (known as corporate PPAs).
A renewable energy Power Purchase Agreement (Green PPA) is a contract between a utility, industrial or commercial off-taker or customer and a green power producer (SPV) for the purchase of power generated by 100% renewable energy assets.
The customer doesn’t take ownership of or invest in specific renewable equipment, like solar panels that generate electricity. Instead, the customer commits to buying the electricity and its attributes (e.g., the renewable energy certificates, “RECs” or Guarantees of Origin) produced by the equipment installed by the energy provider.
There are many financial, environmental, and social benefits to a PPA, including:
There are various steps involved in developing a renewable energy plant and supplying a Renewable PPA, including:
There are several key terms we need to agree upon during the negotiation process:
Commercial terms:
Technical terms:
Other terms:
The price and volume of the electricity provided by your PPA are fixed for the duration of your agreement. However, if you need to increase your supply volume, such as due to building a new factory, you can sign a second agreement for the additional amount.
Balancing is the difference between a renewable energy plant’s projected output and its actual production. Low production means additional electricity must be purchased, while excess generation has to be sold on the balancing market, often resulting in additional costs.
DABITRON offers a Renewable PPA profile type:
Your business will remain on new Green PPA supply agreement, that offers a green electricity delivered directly by DABITRON. In other words, the Renewable PPA covers all of your power demands.
Yes. We design our PPAs to be as transparent and flexible as possible.
Yes, we develop onsite DABITRON Renewable Power Plant Projects:
Our goal is to propose renewable power plant projects that to provide 100% renewable energy 24/7.
In these cases, we build the plant (green hydrogen power plant, microgrid or hybrid power plant) directly near the consumption point and supply electricity via a physical connection. As a result, onsite PPAs generally have fewer transmission losses and lower costs, delivering greater value for the producer and buyer.
Yes, a microgrid project or green hydrogen power plant, the different power sources (solar PV + battery BESS + hydrogen H2) can complement each other very well, as solar production is high during the day, while hydrogen generation can compensate for the losses of the solar system when the system does not produce on days of less production or at night. Combining these two clean technologies answer and maintain your company need to a stable energy supply, reducing your profiling costs.
Yes, in addition to combining two different power sources, your Renewable PPA include energy storage, such as a battery co-located with a DABITRON Renewable Power Plant Project, that provide 100% renewable energy 24/7, includes a battery co-located with a solar PV plant and hydrogen on site production.
The battery can store clean energy during periods of excess production and discharge it in the evening when demand is high. Energy storage also helps to balance your Renewable PPA’s electricity profile and increase the share of energy delivered by the contracted plant, reducing your balancing costs.
As the Renewable PPA off-taker, you receive guarantees of origin for the entire contracted volume. This approach ensures that the power plant generates renewable energy, the specified amount is into the grid and delivers the environmental benefit.
It is possible to rear livestock on the same land as solar panels, although some breeds are more suitable than others. For example, DABITRON actively encourages sheep farming and beekeeping, both of which work well in tandem with solar energy generation.
This type of “dual-use” farming is not only possible – we think it’s a great idea, they both work well together. You are encouraged to continue your farming activities, provided the crops don’t shade the solar panels or have any other adverse effects.
Unlike most forms of energy generation, ground-mounted solar panels have a minimal impact on their surroundings, and can actually enhance plant and wildlife habitats. For example, the shaded areas beneath the solar panels can provide refuge for many animals during the hot summer months. In addition, ground-mounted solar PV plants are often ideal environments for keeping bees, as the absence of pesticides can vastly improve their health and honey quality.
All the Renewable Power Plant Projects proposed are the property of DABITRON.
Undertaking a project requires significant work on DABITRON’s part, including planning, documentation, permitting, and many other considerations. Therefore, we ensure there is a preliminary agreement in place during the planning stage to protect the interests of both parties.
In the unlikely event of a bankruptcy, a receiver would assume administrative control of the DABITRON Renewable Power Plant. After restructuring the debt, the receiver would likely continue running the plant, either directly or by selling it to a new owner. In rare cases, the receiver may sell the plant’s components (such as panels, inverters, mounting frames, and battery systems) and use the funds to completely remove the system, enabling you to repurpose the land.
As a ownership and project developer, we need this right to advance our projects successfully. We finance our Renewable Power Plant Projects using equity and debt capital, the latter of which can only be obtained by pledging certain rights and securities to the debt providers.
A DABITRON Renewable PPA, or Power Purchase Agreement, is your contract with DABITRON to purchase the energy coming from the renewable Power Plant of DABITRON. With this contract, you will not incur the cost for the systems, installation, and ongoing maintenance. This way you can receive the lower cost of renewable power energy without the responsibility for the system.
We understand that every business is unique, and so our team of clean energy experts can customize a Renewable PPA to your specific needs.
The agreement contains details about the volume and price of the green electricity supplied, the time period, the delivery method, and all other relevant information.
Once you have a Renewable PPA in place, the way you receive and use electricity stays the same. The agreement enables us to generate clean energy on your behalf, which you purchase at a pre-defined price over a defined period.
15-20 years at the customer’s preference.
Yes. You may do so within a set number of days upon signing the PPA. This time frame varies by state.
NO – You receive a monthly bill for the electricity consumed from the system.
A DABITRON Renewable PPA allows a customer to lock in low energy costs and protect their organization from unpredictable fossil fuel-based energy rates.
DABITRON helps you handle all of the necessary paperwork and obtain any required permits when you decide to go renewable.
Lower electricity bills from day one.
By purchasing clean, renewable energy instead of using energy generated with fossil fuels, organizations can make a real difference for the environment and help set an example for sustainable business practices.
No additional tax benefits like depreciation.
DABITRON covers the insurance of the system
DABITRON provides on-going operations of maintenance and monitoring at no additional cost.
We can remove the panels for you at no cost leaving the space or the building as it was before or you can extend your contract.
With no noise, emissions, or moving parts, the DABITRON Renewable Power Plant Projects have a minimal impact on their surroundings. They blend in well with the landscape and require no major earthworks or land disruptions. Compared to other forms of renewable energy generation (such as wind or hydropower), Hybrid plant and Hydrogen Power Plant also help to increase biodiversity and create new animal habitats.
The life of a typical DABITRON Renewable Power Plant Project is around 40 years, which corresponds to the duration of your lease. As the system owner and operator, DABITRON is responsible for decommissioning and removing the plant at the end of its life.
Yes they are. Unlike traditional fossil fuel power stations, the DABITRON Renewable Power Plants Projects create no noise, greenhouse gases, or pollutants of any kind. In addition, improvements in technology and scale continually reduce the amount of energy and materials needed to make solar panels and the battery energy storage systems, and they are now also completely recyclable.
We work to install every energy plant as quickly as possible, regardless of its size. As a result, we complete most projects within eight to twelve months.
A Renewable PPA isn’t looked at as debt. It functions just like a regular utility bill, so it doesn’t tie up capital the customer could use for other investments.
On a monthly basis, you will receive:
DABITRON electronic invoice – includes charges for the power generated at the price per kWh listed in your PPA (also contains your monthly solar payment summary and due date information).
Absolutely! In fact, we’ve seen that renewable-powered systems tend to improve a home’s or landvalue. DABITRON is willing to work with you to transfer the PPA and monthly payments to the new owner.
The DABITRON Renewable Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) can be transferred to new occupants should you move to new premises.
