The lease the loan, it all comes down to a contract of ongoing cash flow. PPAs and power agreements on the commercial and utility scale are the same thing much like how developers always look for the “minority participation” so they can have long term reoccuring revenues. Yieldcos, securitizations and enterprise value also value this income and not so much the structure that allowed an entity to control that revenue. Clearly, residential solar isn’t focused so much on what the structure but that customers don’t pay cash!
