Should a project be delivered under an EPC or turnkey contract?
One of the main drivers for and major advantages delivering a project under an EPC or turnkey contract, as opposed to adopting a multi-contract approach, is that project developers and project finance lenders have a single point of responsibility.
Are EPC contracts available in New Zealand?
EPC contracts are commonly used overseas (including in Australia). However, until recently, they have not been as frequently or commonly used in New Zealand, and there is currently no New Zealand standard form EPC contract available for use by renewable energy developers.
What is an EPC contract?
Similar to “Principal’s Requirements” commonly found in a D&C contract, an EPC contract will generally include “Employer’s Requirements”. This is often a limited output specification, which sets the parameters and objectives that the contractor must meet.
The average price of EPC for energy storage projects generally falls within the range of $1,000 to $3,000 per installed kilowatt; this cost can fluctuate based on various factors such as project scale, technology employed, site conditions, and location-specific economic considerations.Key issues in contracting for renewable energy
