FINANCING ADVANTAGES
With established relationships with both traditional and non‐traditional lend‐
ers, EDGE Energy is able to pursue financing for its clients’ renewable energy
systems. Depending on the capital and cash flow needs of the client, financing
options are customized for each project. Typical financing options available
M e m b e r through EDGE Energy fall into three categories:
 Direct System Purchase
 20 Year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)
 Solar Lease with Equipment Buyout Option
Direct System Purchase
A c c r e d i t e d
Some clients are interested in purchasing a renewable energy system outright.
Federal, state and utility company incentives can offset as much as 90% of the
cost of a system. In addition, once commissioned, the system begins paying
for itself immediately by reducing the amount of energy purchased from the
utility company. Finally, solar energy systems typically increase the market
value of buildings based on the decreased capitalization rate of the property,
based on the decreased annual energy costs. Depending on the creditworthi‐
ness of the borrower, lenders are able to provided financing with little or no
P a r t i c i p a n t money down.
Power Purchase Agreement
A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is one method of financing a solar project
where the party that would like to have electricity savings is not interested in
doing a direct system purchase or an equipment lease. In this arrangement,
the building or property owner allows a system to be installed on their property
at no cost to them and the building owner agrees to buy the power the system
generates from the third‐party system owner. The PPA is usually structured to
have a start rate below the current utility company rate, which then escalates
between 1.5‐3.5% annually over the 15 or 20 year life of the PPA. The escalator
compares favorably with U.S. Department of Energy estimates of future elec‐
tricity rates, and results in creating a partial energy hedge which can amount to
many thousands of dollars in energy savings for the building/property owner
over the life of the PPA. System purchase options can be included in a PPA.

FINANCING ADVANTAGES
(Continued)
Solar Equipment Lease
M e m b e r
Businesses with little to no tax income tax burden and non‐profit organizations
that cannot utilize the income attributes generated through the ownership of
the system can utilize an equipment lease. Leases are typically structured with
10 to 20 year terms and may be designed to have the lease payments be equal
to or less than the current electrical power costs being displaced. Lease pay‐
ments can remain static or may be structured to reset the payments in 5 year
intervals.
Equipment leases usually include a buyout option that can typically be exer‐
A c c r e d i t e d
cised after seven (7) years. With a buyout option, businesses can choose to
own the system anytime after the seventh year of the lease based on a pre‐
determined schedule of residual values.

ENERGY MANAGEMENT AND RENEWABLES
EVALUATION PROCESS
EDGE offers a comprehensive energy solution that integrates both Renewable
Energy solutions for private and public facilities with Advanced Energy
Management Systems (EMS). EDGE clients benefit from a robust Energy
M e m b e r
Management solution within a demand response framework, which consists of
both the process and technology required to manage Energy Efficiency (EE)
and a more sophisticated management of Renewable Energy portfolios.
Phased Approach
Our service offering is a phased approach starting with a small pilot program
that maximizes energy efficiency and identifies the best renewable energy
A c c r e d i t e d options. This enables the effective management of utilities by extending the
energy management strategy in a single facility or across multiple locations
(often multiple locations can number in the hundreds for an office facility,
university or school campus). An enterprise application aggregates KW usage
across a pre‐defined region or group of facilities. When a utility provider is
operating at peak capacity, it notifies participating customers that it is time to
reduce the load. The customers trigger routines that apply to the region,
P a r t i c i p a n t initiating simultaneous shed strategies in multiple facilities. This enables the
utility company to avoid bringing additional generating capacity online (less
efficient & more costly), avoiding a significant expense. In return, the utilities
offer significant savings or rebates to participating customers.
Incorporating Renewable Solar Energy
Using industry standard solar sizing guidelines, EDGE will evaluate the areas
available on‐site for a renewable solar energy solution. We will identify the
available areas for rooftop, ground‐mounted, or parking shade structure for
solar arrays. Using these available areas and an analysis of the client’s energy
usage, EDGE will design the most appropriate renewable energy system.
When combined with the integrated EMS/DR portfolio, the client will realize
the optimal energy solution for their facility or facilities.

ENERGY MANAGEMENT AND RENEWABLES
EVALUATION PROCESS
Analysis of Displacement and Project Modeling
EDGE will perform a complete site assessment, identify opportunities for
energy efficiencies and calculate the optimal size of the renewable solar energy
system for the client. First, we identify opportunities that will give our clients
M e m b e r
the best methods and tools that will reduce their present energy consumption.
Once we have programmed and set the facility to operate most efficiently, we
next calculate the displacement of kilowatt hours by the solar system. EDGE
will prepare a preliminary financial analysis based on the savings of electricity,
federal, state and utility incentives, and tax advantages from the MACRS
accelerated depreciation schedule. EDGE will include a spreadsheet and
computation showing these benefits and an unlevered IRR over a 20‐year
timeframe. This modeling will also include solar irradiation available for the
A c c r e d i t e d site.
Presentation of System Proposal
The complete system with an applicable financial analysis will be presented to
the client in a preliminary proposal. The financing alternatives will include in‐
depth comparisons of the direct system purchase, solar equipment lease and
power purchase agreement options. With a selection of the preferred financing
alternative and a submittal of financials by the client, EDGE will assist the client
P a r t i c i p a n t in its application for utility company incentives and prepare a financing
proposal to be submitted to our network of preferred lenders.
Application & Construction Process
Following this feasibility phase, once the client desires to proceed with the
project, EDGE will work with the client throughout the following project
development activities:
 Initial Project Applications
 Incentive Application/Reservation
 Securing of Financing (if needed)
 Final Design and Engineering
 Procurement and Construction
 Commissioning

Client The non‐profit Human Services Campus in Phoenix, Arizona. The
Construction Campus accommodates the combined facilities for the Central Arizona Shelter
Services and four other non‐profit homeless services providers. It is located on
a 7 acre parcel in downtown Phoenix, Arizona owned and leased by Maricopa
County.
Objective The project objective is to permanently reduce the total energy
costs of the five Human Services Campus organizations. Every dollar saved by
the non‐profit campus is one that does not have to be raised.
Finance The proposal is a lease provided by a 3rd party ownership group to
take advantage of available tax and utility company incentives. Lease
payments to the facility are proposed to be lower than the utility costs.
System EDGE Energy proposed to install a 769 kilowatt photovoltaic system
using a combination of fixed‐tilt roof‐mounted arrays and solar powered
parking shade structure arrays. Additional energy savings are accomplished
by the installation of a water‐cooled chiller to replace the air‐cooled chiller
presently in use. These systems will decrease the current energy use profile
and provide an average 80% electric load displacement factor. The PV system
will produce approximately 1,789,300 kilowatt hours per year.
Status Project put on hold. NPO’s trying to figure out how to accommodate
the project through the five NPO boards and the Maricopa County Supervisors.
