Overview

CaseMark's Power Purchase Agreement skill uses AI to draft commercially balanced, regulation-aware PPAs between generators and offtakers. The tool produces comprehensive agreements covering delivery, pricing, metering, performance guarantees, environmental attributes, credit support, defaults, and remedies — all structured to reflect current U.S. energy market practices.

Drafting power purchase agreements is one of the most complex tasks in energy law, requiring careful coordination of pricing mechanics, environmental attribute provisions, performance guarantees, credit support, and regulatory compliance across multiple jurisdictions. Attorneys and energy professionals often spend days assembling first drafts, cross-referencing market standards, and ensuring no critical provisions are overlooked.

CaseMark's AI-powered PPA drafting skill transforms this process by generating comprehensive, commercially balanced agreements from your deal terms and project details. The tool produces a complete 16-section agreement with exhibits, covering everything from definitions and delivery mechanics to force majeure and dispute resolution, giving your team a polished starting point in minutes.
