Frequently Asked Questions

Everything You Need to Know About Our Energy Solutions

General Questions


What is Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS)?

CIPA Energy Resources finances, builds, owns, operates, and maintains the energy system. Instead of purchasing the infrastructure, you pay only for the energy you use under a long-term service agreement.

How much upfront capital is required?

None. We fund the full cost of design, equipment, installation, and commissioning. You pay a fixed tariff per kWh consumed, always below your current grid rate, with no capital investment.

Who owns the solar system?

CIPA Energy Resources owns and operates the asset for the duration of the agreement. At the end of the contract you have the option to take full ownership at a pre-agreed residual value, or at no additional cost depending on the structure.

How long does a typical agreement last?

Agreements typically run for ten to twenty years. The term is set during feasibility so the tariff, the savings, and the ownership transfer all work for your operations.

Solar & Battery Questions


Can battery storage be installed without solar?

Yes. Battery energy storage can be deployed standalone to smooth load curves, eliminate peak tariffs, and provide backup power during grid outages.

Will my business still have electricity during power outages?

With battery storage in the design, yes. Stored energy carries critical loads through grid outages, giving you 24/7 energy security without running diesel.

Can I add battery storage later?

Yes. Systems are engineered so storage can be added as your load profile changes, and the agreement is amended to reflect the expanded scope.

Project Delivery


How long does implementation take?

It depends on system size and site conditions. Assessment and feasibility typically take a few weeks, and construction through to commissioning runs from a few weeks to several months.

What is included in Operations & Maintenance?

Continuous performance monitoring, preventive and corrective maintenance, cleaning, and reporting for the life of the agreement. Because we own the asset, its performance is our responsibility, not yours.

Do you provide a free feasibility study?

We provide a free initial assessment and indicative proposal. A full feasibility study — yield modelling, load analysis, site assessment, and system sizing — follows once you decide to proceed, and carries no cost to you.

Investors & Partners


Do you partner with EPC contractors?

Yes. We work with local development and EPC partners on delivery, and welcome contractors, developers, and suppliers who meet our QHSE and engineering standards.

Can institutional investors participate?

Yes. Our projects are structured as long-term contracted assets suited to pension capital, green bonds, and DFI-aligned blended capital structures.
