Sale Entities

Select this option if you receive a feed-in-tariff. In addition, you can enter a market price and then choose how the two prices interact.

Select this option if you have a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). The following PPAs are available: 

• Pay-as-Produced: In case you have a variable production profile. This means that a fixed tariff is paid for each produced unit, regardless of current market prices.

• Annual Baseload: In case you have a fixed delivery profile which is constant during the year. The difference between the amount of electricity actually generated and the defined amount must be bought and sold on the electricity market. 

• Monthly Baseload: In case you have a fixed delivery profile which varies from month to month. The difference between the amount of electricity actually generated and the defined amount must be bought and sold on the electricity market. 

Select this option if the electricity produced is sold on the electricity market.

Sale entities of this group are summed up with Sales of the same Group (Feed-in-Tariff Group) before the interaction takes effect.

For example for the German Renewable Energy Act "Erneuerbare-Energien-Gesetz" (EEG).

Sale entities of this group are summed up with Sales of the same Group (Market Price Group) before the interaction takes effect.

For sells on the energy market, for example direkt sells.

Sale entities (remaining) are directly summed up and Interaction takes effect.

The Sales corresponds to a floor which depends on a driver.

The following drivers are available:

The Sales corresponds to a cap which depends on a driver.

The End is defined by a Date Choice Box.

The End depends on the attainment of an accumulated Production per assigned Production Unit since Production Unit Start.

For example: "Production Unit Start + 20 years".

The entered month refers to the last day of this month (inclusive). For example: An end 12 /2015 mean that the Sale entity is considered till 12.31.2015 according to Driver/Value input

For example: "10'000 MWh" & "From First Production Unit Start", which means the accumulated Production > 10'000 MWh from first Production Unit start will not be remunerated according to this Sale entity.

The End of the Sale entity is defined as the accumulated Production per assigned Production Unit since Production Unit Start. This means the Sales entity is considered till the attainment of the accumulated Production according the End input of the corresponding Production Unit

For example: An input of "10'000 MWh with 2 assigned Production Units" means that the Sale entity is valid till the particular Production Unit produced 10'000 MWh since Production Unit Start. A accumulated Production > 10'000 will not be remunerated according to this Sale entity.

Note: For projects with heterogeneous properties according the quotal end (for example Production Unit 1 has 10'000 MWh and Production Unit 2 has 15'000 MWh) you should use two different Sale entities.
