Summary:
The COVID-19 emergency requires all of us to work together to protect the public and workers, our vital public services and our economy. This includes the delivery of vital public services to the NHS through PFI contracts.
Typically, a Concession Agreement or a PPA will provide for Force Majeure relief to extend beyond the Concession Agreement/PPA to other project agreements that the Concession Agreement/PPA parties are also party to, including the EPC contracts or the O&M agreements. For example, where the occurrence of a Force Majeure event prevents the EPC contractor from building the power plant, the project company may be able to seek relief from its contractual obligation under the Concession Agreement/PPA.
Risk allocation is an essential component of a successful public-private partnership contract. For many of these projects, demand risk is large and mostly exogenous, which motivates considering contract designs that do not force the concessionaire to bear risk it cannot manage.

Under a PVR contract, the regulator sets the discount rate and tariff schedule and frms compete on the present value of tariff revenue.
