Everything property owners want to know before signing a lease — how the deal works, what we cover, and what happens over the life of the system.
Who owns and maintains the equipment?
The proposed structure contemplates OmniLink ownership, but the final lease and operating arrangements must confirm ownership and each party's responsibilities. That includes financing, permitting, installation, monitoring, shutdown, maintenance, emergency response, site access and insurance for the specific project.
What happens at the end of the lease?
Renewal, purchase and decommissioning options are addressed in the final lease. Any restoration responsibilities and costs are also defined there for the specific site.
Does the system take my land or roof out of use?
Each layout is site-specific. We evaluate rooftops, parking-area edges and unused pads, then design around access, tenants, trucks and daily operations wherever the site allows.
Who pays for insurance and property taxes?
Insurance requirements, coverage responsibilities and any project-related tax obligations are defined in the final lease for each site. Owners can review those terms with their advisors before signing.
How are battery safety and code approval handled?
The equipment and design proposed for a site are reviewed against applicable codes and submitted to the relevant authorities for approval. UL 9540A provides test data used to evaluate thermal-runaway and fire behavior; it does not prove how every system will behave in every event. Equipment certification, monitoring, shutdown, emergency response, maintenance and insurance arrangements must be confirmed for the specific project.
When do rent payments begin?
Submitting a property does not guarantee a lease. Rent begins at the milestone stated in the final lease only after the site is approved, the lease is signed, required permits and utility interconnection are secured, construction and commissioning are completed, and the system is placed in commercial operation.
When do you need my utility data?
Not during the first property submission. If the preliminary site screening is promising, OmniLink requests 12 months of utility bills and available 15-minute interval data during diligence to evaluate load, rates and project fit.
What does the preliminary site screening confirm?
It uses your ownership or role, property address and location, and estimated available roof, land or parking space to identify whether deeper review may be worthwhile. It cannot confirm utility capacity, interconnection cost, fire-code approval, project economics or a rent offer.
What happens to my contact details and utility bills?
Contact and property details are saved in OmniLink's private lead system and sent to our team for review and follow-up. Utility bills requested later are stored privately with the site record, used for diligence and accessible only to authorized OmniLink team members. They are not displayed publicly.
How long does installation take?
Construction is estimated at 2–6 months after required permits and utility interconnection approvals are secured, depending on the site and location. That range is construction time only—not the total time from inquiry to rent.
Does lease income also mean lower bills or backup power?
Not automatically. Lease income pays for the agreed use of property space. Utility-bill savings require a behind-the-meter design based on site load and tariffs. Backup power requires dedicated resilience equipment and controls. A project may include one or more of these outcomes only when specifically designed and agreed for the site.
