BREAKDOWN OF MONTHLY PAYMENT AND BENEFITS
Organizations (e.g., City, community, church, school, hospital, airport, etc.) need critical infrastructure (lights, HVAC, roofs, water) to operate smoothly and serve their Mission.
However...
- Your customers don’t have to own those mechanical and electrical systems, you just need assurance of dependably receiving their benefits.
- Your customers current methods of procurement and funding don’t adequately address all of the needs, and this is why deferred maintenance continues to accrue.
- The opportunity costs of using customer capital dollars for energy-related infrastructure instead of on other mission-critical needs is substantial and, with SPs model, unnecessary.
- Payment based on 20 years and money is escrowed to replace all assets at the end of the period and during should warranty or maintenance replacements be required.
We use a novel, collaborative Public-Private Partnership approach to invest our capital in your infrastructure.
Our business model mimics how a utility works...no capital outlay upfront (or ever!) and we get repaid on a monthly basis. Just like you pay your utility.
Structure our investment agreements such that they are non-obligatory, do not affect balance sheets, credit ratings, debt ceilings, etc.
Accelerate your ability to make necessary improvements now and avoid kicking the can down the road through more deferred maintenance.
Remove the financial, technical and institutional risks to customers for investing in, and improving, your infrastructure.
