EPC Contracts will not provide for the handover of the solar facility to the Project Company, and the PPA will not become effective until all commissioning and reliability trialling has been successfully completed.
Given the significant monetary value of EPC Contracts, and the potential adverse consequences if problems occur during construction, the lowest price should not be the only factor used when selecting a Contractor. As noted earlier, an EPC Contract is one of a suite of agreements necessary to develop a solar project.
Another major disadvantage of an EPC Contract becomes evident when problems occur during construction. In return for a guaranteed price and a guaranteed completion date, the Project Company cedes most of the day-to-day control over the construction.
