Method for Financing and Operating Onsite Renewable Energy Systems with Aggregated Onsite Demand

摘要

An improved method of operating and financing one or more onsite renewable energy systems (16) that supply energy to one or more onsite users (12). Onsite demand aggregation and management produce stable cash flow that qualifies for low cost conventional financing. Key functions, under the control of a professional operator (14), are redesigned to improve operating costs, tax incentive utilization, and risk mitigation. Onsite users (12) receive highly reliable power at retail rates but undertake no investments, long term commitments, or risk.
