The equipment need

One farm had discontinued its egg production activity as a result of a change in standards, keeping nearly 6,000 m2 of unused buildings.

It wanted to upgrade part of the roofs by a 500 kWp photovoltaic plant in an area of activity provided for in the local urban planning plan.

The investment, in the order of $458,000, was to be financed without mobilising the company's remaining liquidity.

  • Photovoltaic modules
  • Inverters
  • Roof attachment structures
  • Network connection

The support described in the project

We analyzed the project, the contract to buy electricity and the production plan to secure the application with our banking partners.

We have put in place a 120-month leasing covering modules, inverters, fastening structures and connection to the network.

Rental payments have been aligned to be covered by income from the sale of electricity from the time of commissioning.

The reported operational outcome

The installation was installed and connected without initial input, with rental payments being absorbed by energy production.

The company has transformed untapped real estate into a regular source of income over the long term.

The purchase option at the end of the contract allows him to become owner of the instalation at a residual price.

Applying the experience to a new project

Use this case to identify the equipment, timing and ownership questions relevant to your own investment. The historical scope and term are specific to the project described. For a new U.S. project, identify the contracting business, installation state, supplier quote and preferred use period; available structures require a separate assessment.
