電力購買協議 - 2026（第一版）

概述

本文件為工作文檔，並非市場報告。其假定讀者即將簽署合約或要求他人簽署合約。

雖然購電協議 (PPA) 的價格以單一數字的形式呈現，但實際上是由十幾個單獨的決策協商而成的。本指南將逐一整理這些決策。具體而言，它涵蓋了實際購買的電力種類、價格的形成方式、為何捕獲率打破了企業購電協議的傳統框架、合約中哪些風險應由哪一方承擔，以及信用評級機構會為哪些類型的交易提供融資，又會拒絕哪些類型的交易提供融資。

本書在寫作時充分考慮了買賣雙方的視角。所有風險都從買賣雙方的觀點進行了考慮。這是因為，補償的價值所在。

OVERVIEW

This is a working document, not a market report. It assumes you are about to sign something, or about to ask someone else to.

Power purchase agreements are priced as one number and negotiated as a dozen separate decisions. This guide separates them: what you are actually buying, how price forms and why capture rates broke the standard corporate PPA, which risks belong on which side of the table, and what a credit committee will and will not finance.

Written for both chairs. Every risk is read from the buyer’s side and the seller’s, because the price of conceding a point is only legible when you can see what it is worth to the person asking for it.

WHAT THIS EDITION COVERS

Sixteen parts covering the full negotiation - the map of who sits where, diagnosing which of five market types you are in, choosing between physical, sleeved, virtual, retail and captive structures, what you are really buying, price formation and the capture problem, testing the counterparty, the term sheet, the risk register, bankability, negotiation sequence, execution and settlement, life of contract, pitfalls, a worked example across three archetypes and five years of settlement, accounting and tax, and endgame. Closes with a five-page tear-out field checklist, a market annex by archetype, and reference appendices including a clause concordance.

WHO THIS IS FOR

Buyers, sellers, developers, lenders and advisers negotiating or financing a power purchase agreement in any global market.

WHAT YOU GET

• Written for both sides of the table, not just the buyer
• Deal evidence from real transactions
• What This Costs You - the price of conceding each point
• Ask Before You Sign - questions to put to the counterparty
• Best-practice guidance at each stage of the negotiation
• A worked example: one project, three archetypes, five years of settlement
• A five-page tear-out field checklist
• Market annex by archetype, plus a clause concordance and glossary
