One of the best investments that a company can make in terms of energy savings and efficiency is self-consumption photovoltaics. Myenergy, in collaboration with a financial company, offers the possibility of creating a photovoltaic system without any advance, without financial commitments and with a pure rental installment equal to or less than the savings generated.
What does operational rental consist of?
The operating lease or rental is a solution that allows, against the payment of a periodic fixed fee, to have the availability of an asset instrumental to the exercise of one's profession or entrepreneurial activity, without acquiring ownership of it.
What are the benefits?
- Maintaining liquidity: Does not require the mobilization of own funds and does not affect the balance sheet ratios.
- Autonomy: Using green energy from a photovoltaic system attests to the company's commitment to safeguarding the environment and makes it autonomous from the changes in the electricity market stock exchange, undoubtedly an ethical choice for sustainability.
- No change in the credit rating: The rental, like any other rental contract, does not affect the balance sheet, but only as a cost item and therefore does not affect the corporate rating. This allows you to use new technologies without changing the rating.
- Constant rents: Instead of incurring high purchase costs and all the related costs, the installments will be agreed in advance and equal to or less than the savings obtained, offering planning security thanks to the rents.
- Deductibility of fees in the calendar year. Financially, the transaction will allow you to take advantage of the tax advantages linked to the 100% deductibility from IRES and IRAP of the rental fee from taxes, equal to what happens with electricity costs, but with the great advantage of not paying any money. .
- The fee is unique and all inclusive, it includes:
- 1. Energy diagnosis for the identification of the consumption curve and therefore the optimal size of the system
- 2. Authorization, Design and Installation of the system;
- 3.Installation of the Supervision system including remote control, performance analysis, monitoring of performance and consumption;
- 4.O & M (Operation & Management), or the complete management of the system including insurance and ordinary and extraordinary maintenance service, washing of forms, paperwork, assistance, remote control;
- Quality products with constantly updated technology.
The operating rental guarantees the quality of the latest generation products used and 24 hour maintenance in order to ensure maximum system performance. Furthermore, since photovoltaics is a consolidated technology, at the end of the rental an additional residual useful life of the plant of approximately 10-20 years is estimated, depending on the type of contract.
Rental duration based on savings
The duration of the rental for the construction of a photovoltaic system is variable. Times vary depending on the characteristics of the company and range from 5-6 years up to 15 years. During the rental, the installment will be less than or equal to the savings obtained through the production and self-consumption of electricity.
What happens after the contract period?
- Purchase: the company can choose whether to purchase the system from the supplier at a previously agreed price (to be quantified in a timely manner for each project, but still less than the value of a year of savings) and use it, fully enjoying the savings generated , until the end of life. In this case, the company can choose whether to sign a full service maintenance contract or a simple on-call maintenance service without any obligation.
- Return: the company can return the system and the supplier will remove it without further additional costs.
