Most EAC overspend happens before you ever go to market. Gaps go unsized, PPA surplus goes unused, and purchases get made without a clear view of pricing or market timing. Changing requirements can make those decisions harder to unwind.

This short 15-minute video explores three ways to spend less on EACs before you go to market:

  • Know the price and when to act. Compare quotes with relevant market pricing and liquidity signals, then weigh whether to buy now or stage purchases over time. A fair quote matters, but so does timing.
  • Buy only what counts. Size your real gap to goal by market and site, then filter out certificates that won’t support your claim, such as the wrong vintage, market or spec. A certificate that doesn’t qualify gets paid for twice.
  • Use what you own first. Your PPA surplus is often your strategic supply. Before it expires, decide whether to carry it forward, reallocate it, swap it, or sell it. 

Leave with a framework to navigate this buying season with total confidence.
