Understanding Your Solar Financing Options - Capital Purchase vs PPA vs Lease: What’s the Difference?
Capital Purchase
You Own It
- Ownership: You own the system outright.
- Payment: Upfront payment or through a loan.
- Tax Benefits: Eligible for depreciation and possible instant asset write-off.
- Savings: You keep 100% of energy savings.
- Maintenance: You’re responsible for servicing, repairs, and insurance.
- Best For: Companies with available capital or wanting long-term asset ownership.
Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)
You Pay for the Power, Not the System
- Ownership: Third-party provider owns the system.
- Payment: No upfront cost – you pay only for the electricity generated (at a discounted rate).
- Tax Benefits: Not applicable to you (goes to the provider).
- Savings: Locked-in electricity rates, often cheaper than grid.
- Maintenance: Provider handles all servicing, monitoring, and performance.
- Best For: Businesses that want solar with $0 upfront and no ownership responsibilities.
Lease
You Rent the System
- Ownership: System is leased—ownership stays with the provider until the lease ends.
- Payment: Regular fixed payments (like rent).
- Tax Benefits: Lease payments may be tax-deductible (check with your accountant).
- Savings: You still benefit from energy bill reductions.
- Maintenance: Often included in the lease agreement.

What is a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)?
A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is a long-term electricity supply contract that allows businesses to benefit from solar energy with no upfront capital investment.
- No upfront investment – The PPA provider covers 100% of the installation and equipment costs.

- No maintenance or ownership burden – RESINC SOLAR owns, operates, and maintains the system throughout the term.
Why Choose a PPA with RESINC SOLAR?
- Zero-risk, high-performance model – The system is funded through the energy it generates, not your capital.
- Fully managed solution – We take care of system design, installation, operations, and maintenance.
