Select a Financing Option: Cash, Loan, Lease, or PPA

The Financing Options section of the proposal editor gives you four ways to present the purchase. Select the one you want, and the proposal calculates the customer-facing payment figures from it.

The Four Financing Options

• Cash. Your customer buys the system outright. No provider or rate is involved.
• Loan. Pick a loan provider from your configured list. The provider's interest rate, term rate, and administration fee determine the monthly payment. See "Defaults and Assumptions" for how these fields are defined.
• Lease. Pick a provider from your configured lease and PPA list. Lease and PPA providers share one library, so a lease uses the same four values as a PPA: initial rate, escalator, term in years, and degradation percent.
• PPA. A power purchase agreement, where your customer pays for the power the system produces. The provider's initial rate, escalator, term in years, and degradation percent determine the figures shown.

Where These Values Come From

The providers, rates, and fees you can choose from come from libraries your admin set up in global settings, so the values you see were chosen for you. If a provider or a rate you need is not on the list, ask your admin to add it in settings.
