What Is the CAPEX Model?
Under the CAPEX model, your organisation purchases and owns the solar plant outright. Kanoo CleanMax delivers the complete engineering, procurement, and construction scope. Once commissioned, the asset is yours. Ongoing operations and maintenance support is available as an optional add-on.
This model is suited to organisations that want direct ownership of their energy infrastructure and prefer to capture the full long-term value of the investment on their own balance sheet.
Key Benefits
- Asset ownership from day one
- Direct savings reflected in electricity bills from commissioning
- Long-term operational control over the plant
- Attractive payback periods depending on tariff and site conditions
- Optional operations and maintenance support from Kanoo CleanMax
This model is well-suited to organisations that:
01
Have capital available and want to own the energy asset
02
Are looking for a long-term reduction in operating expenditure
03
Want full control over plant performance and operations
