Power Purchase Agreements (PPA): Long-Term Price Stability for Your Business

If you're running a business, energy pricing can feel like a moving target. 

Month to month, the cost of electricity fluctuates, making it hard to forecast expenses, especially if you're managing multiple sites. 

That’s where Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) come in.

In this article, we’ll break down what a PPA is, why it matters for businesses that want price stability, and how Termina is making this solution accessible, even for smaller sites.

What is a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)?

A Power Purchase Agreement is a long-term contract between an energy generator (like a solar or wind farm) and an energy buyer (like your business). 

The main draw? Locking in a fixed electricity price for a set period, often five to ten years.

Instead of riding the waves of market volatility, you get predictable, stable pricing. 

That means better budgeting, fewer surprises, and a proactive approach to your energy strategy.

PPAs are particularly useful for businesses aiming to reduce carbon emissions, as they often support the development of renewable energy projects. 

In short: a PPA helps you save money and the planet.

Is a PPA Right for Your Business?

Traditionally, PPAs were only available to large corporations with massive energy loads. But things have changed.

A PPA could be a smart move if your business values:

  • Fixed electricity prices instead of chasing the cheapest rate every month,

  • Long-term cost control and budgeting certainty,

  • Sustainability goals tied to renewable energy

And if you're wondering, “What if I don’t use enough energy to qualify?”, keep reading.

Can Small Sites Access PPA Pricing?

Yes. With Termina, they can.

We're the first in Australia to offer PPA-style pricing for small and medium businesses by consolidating energy loads across our network. 

Whether you manage five sites or fifty, your usage contributes to our group buying power, which unlocks wholesale and below-market rates.

That means your business gets the kind of deals usually reserved for the big end of town.

How Termina Does It Differently

Unlike traditional energy brokers, we don’t take commissions from energy providers. 

Our only incentive is to find you the best rate because our revenue comes from the savings we generate for you.

Here’s how we make it simple:

  • Fixed energy pricing through PPAs, even for smaller sites.

  • One central platform for all your electricity, gas, LPG, and embedded network data.

  • No commissions. Just savings.

  • Ongoing optimisation—we keep working after the contract’s signed.

And yes, we handle the whole thing. 

From sourcing to negotiating to switching so you can get back to your best work.

What if I Want to Fix My Energy Price for the Long Term?

That’s what we’re here for.

Even if your business doesn’t meet the usual thresholds for a corporate or industrial (C&I) contract, Termina can still lock in long-term pricing through our aggregated procurement model. 

We tailor contracts that give you multi-year price certainty, no matter the size of your business or where you operate in Australia.
