Heat Purchasing Agreement
THE NEW BANKABLE
STANDARD
Heat markets lack the contract infrastructure that made power purchase agreements scalable. Entropy's HPA framework brings the same rigor — bankable terms, clear performance obligations, and structured banking mechanisms.
Agreement structure
Delivery terms
Temperature, flow rate, and availability commitments defined with measurable tolerances and verified by continuous monitoring.
Pricing mechanisms
Fixed, indexed, and hybrid pricing structures with escalation schedules tied to energy price indices or agreed benchmarks.
Heat banking
Carry-forward and make-whole provisions that smooth seasonal imbalances between heat supply and buyer demand profiles.
Performance guarantees
Liquidated damages, cure periods, and termination rights structured to satisfy lender requirements and reduce counterparty risk.
