CAPEX SOLAR OVERVIEW
Own Your Solar System. Generate Your Own Power.
CAPEX stands for capital expenditure. Under this model, a business invests in its solar installation and typically owns the system. Natural Power can support the project through the agreed engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning scope.
- Plan a system around your electricity use and site conditions.
- Understand equipment, project scope and expected generation before investing.
- Keep ownership and operating arrangements clear from the start.
- Assess potential savings using your tariff, usage and project-specific costs.
Designed around your facility
Site assessment, system design and EPC planning
OUR CAPABILITIES
From the first site assessment to commissioning, a well-planned project brings engineering, equipment, installation and safety requirements together.
Site Assessment & Feasibility
Review electricity consumption, roof or land suitability, shading, structural considerations and project requirements.
Engineering & System Design
Develop a project-specific layout and electrical design, including system capacity and key component selection.
Procurement & Installation
Coordinate suitable solar modules, inverters, mounting structures and balance-of-system equipment within the agreed scope.
Grid Integration & Commissioning
Complete testing, safety checks, documentation and applicable utility coordination required for project handover.
HOW IT WORKS
A Clear Process from Assessment to Handover
Each project follows a structured approach, with the final scope and schedule confirmed after technical assessment.
Initial Consultation
Discuss energy use, site location, goals and investment expectations.
Site Assessment
Review available space, structural conditions, shading and grid needs.
Design & Proposal
Prepare a proposed capacity, system design, equipment scope and cost estimate.
Installation & Testing
Carry out the agreed EPC work, electrical checks and commissioning activities.
Handover & Support
Provide project documentation and discuss monitoring or O&M options where available.
WHY CONSIDER CAPEX?
Benefits of a Customer-Owned Solar Investment
The value of CAPEX solar depends on the facility, the quality of the project and how the generated electricity is used.
Asset Ownership
The customer typically owns the solar system, subject to the project contract and any financing terms.
Potential Bill Savings
Using solar electricity on site can reduce grid electricity purchases, depending on tariffs and consumption.
Greater Control
Choose equipment and operating arrangements within the agreed design and ownership structure.
Long-Term Planning
Compare upfront cost, generation, maintenance and expected payback with a project-specific assessment.
COMPARE YOUR OPTIONS
CAPEX vs OPEX Solar
Both models can help businesses use solar power. The main difference is who invests in and owns the system, and how the customer pays.
CAPEX Solar
The customer funds the project upfront or through financing and typically owns the installed solar asset.
- Customer typically owns the system
- Upfront capital or financing is required
- Customer receives value from solar electricity used, after costs
- Maintenance can be managed internally or contracted
OPEX / RESCO Solar
A provider typically funds and owns the system, and the customer pays under an agreed solar electricity contract.
- Lower or no upfront customer investment in typical models
- Provider typically owns the solar asset
- Payments follow the contract's tariff and terms
- Operation and maintenance may be included in the agreement
Actual ownership, payment, maintenance, savings and responsibilities depend on the contract. OPEX/RESCO arrangements vary by provider and project.
