How you sell your power to get the best return depends on the following:

  • How consistently you’re generating power
  • How much power you’re generating
  • How many installations you operate
  • How your projects are financed
  • What your investors’ expectations are
  • How much experience and resources you have to spend managing your power sales
  • How you anticipate the market will perform
