What Is the Captive Model?

Build your own energy-generation infrastructure

The Captive Model, also known as the CAPEX model, allows the customer to invest in and own the solar power system. Instead of only purchasing electricity from a third party, the customer builds their own energy-generation infrastructure.

Once the system is installed, the electricity generated is used to reduce dependence on grid power. Over time, the savings from reduced electricity bills help recover the initial investment. After the payback period, the system can continue generating low-cost solar power for many years, depending on project performance, maintenance, and site conditions.
