Hedge contracts and renewable energy procurement<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

In a renewable energy contract with a hedge structure, Lightsource bp is committed for a fixed number of\u00a0 megawatt hours (MWhs) for every month over a set time period. This structure is different from a standard unit-contingent or as generated power purchase agreement (PPA) because it is a fixed shape. If the solar facility does not generate the committed number of MWhs, Lightsource bp must go out and buy electricity from the market to hit that committed value to the Energy Buyer. If the solar facility overproduces, Lightsource bp can sell those excess MWhs into the market.<\/p>\n\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n
