Thomson Reuters Practice Law has published an article titled “Solar Ground Leases: Key Considerations for Landowners,” co-authored by Akin projects & energy transition partner Thomas Dupuis and real estate associate Alexandra Franklin. The article discusses key issues for private landowners to consider when negotiating a ground lease with a solar developer for a large-scale, ground mounted solar project.
As landowners may be less knowledgeable than solar developers in negotiating solar ground leases, the Akin attorneys explore guidance on material solar lease provisions including, “financial terms, lease term and extensions, security deposits, project development and entitlement issues, decommissioning obligations, and environmental compliance.”
