Stays below the projected grid rate for the entire termAssumes utility rates rise 2.4%/yr — CO's 11-year EIA rate history (2014–2025)
Escalator: 2.99%/yr — rises FASTER than the projected grid (2.4%/yr), so the gap narrows over time; a lower escalator is the key thing to negotiate
Negotiation Tip 1Ask for a 0.99% escalator instead of 2.99% (~$17,381 more over the term)
Negotiation Tip 2Ask for a 0% (flat) escalator instead of 2.99% (~$24,196 more over the term)
Buyout terms: Prepayment Amount schedule listed in Exhibit F (e.g., Year 1: $78,487.92, Year 18: $30,483.60) represents the prepayment/buyout schedule over the term.
