Zentric’s president William Tien commented on the new development: “Zentric is very excited to acquire these two projects that will be 100% owned by Zentric and have already been awarded a Power Purchase Agreement or PPA. The PPA is a long term guaranteed contract with the local Power Authority to purchase all of the power we can generate at a pre-determined price. A PPA guarantees a steady stream of payments and in this case for a minimum of 15 years.”
