Oomi Omatuotanto Terms and conditions of small-scale generation purchase agreements for companies
The terms will come into effect on 1 October 2025.
These product-specific terms are part of the customer's (hereinafter ‘Producer’) small-scale generation purchase agreement (hereinafter ‘Agreement’) with Oomi Oy (hereinafter ‘Oomi’).
1. Contents of the Agreement, validity and purchase price of small-scale generation
During the Agreement’s validity period, the Producer will sell to Oomi all surplus electricity generated at the location of use that is not consumed by the Producer.
This Agreement will come into effect on the date mentioned in the agreement confirmation, unless the Producer reports needs for changes to this Agreement within fourteen (14) days of the date when the agreement confirmation was sent. In this case, any changes must be reported to Oomi's corporate customer service department at yritykset@oomi.fi.
The contract is valid until further notice and can be terminated by either party with two (2) weeks’ notice. The Producer may not transfer this Agreement to a third party. Oomi has the right to transfer the Agreement to a third party in connection with a business acquisition, for example.
Oomi shall compensate the Producer for surplus electricity from small-scale generation at the hourly price listed for the Finnish price area on the electricity exchange maintained by Nord Pool AS (hourly spot price). The purchase price of the generated electricity is based on the actual hourly spot price and the measured amount of energy transferred to the grid.
When the hourly spot price is negative, Oomi will charge the Producer for the negative price periods. Here too, the amount charged is based on the actual hourly spot price and the amount of energy transferred to the grid.
The margin (c/kWh) and the basic monthly fee (€/month) specified in the Agreement are deducted from the total amount. One of the characteristics of exchange electricity is that the price paid for electricity can vary significantly depending on supply and demand.
The average electricity purchase price shown on the invoice is the cost of the individual hours of the month added together and divided by the amount of surplus energy generated during the month. The Producer has access to Oomi's electronic reporting service, where they can check the accuracy of the invoiced prices if they wish.
Oomi reserves the right to change the terms and prices of the Agreement. Oomi shall notify the Producer of any changes to the terms and conditions of the Agreement or prices at least two (2) weeks before the change takes effect.
The effects of legislative changes or measures taken by the authorities, such as increases, reductions, introduction or repeal of taxes and/or public charges, shall be taken into account in the pricing immediately upon the commencement of the obligation to pay the tax and/or other public charge or upon the entry into force of the other regulation or official order.
Oomi shall notify the Producer of any changes in pricing caused by legislative changes or measures taken by the authorities without undue delay, once the exact impact of the change in question on pricing is known.
2. Requirement for an electricity sales contract and a network service contract
The site covered by the Agreement must have a network service contract with the local distribution system operator for the transmission of electricity generated, as well as an electricity sales contract with Oomi or another electricity retailer. If the Producer has a valid electricity sales contract with Oomi at the site, the Producer is entitled to the Oomi Self-generation Plus product.
If the Producer terminates their electricity sales contract during the term of the Agreement concerning the Oomi Self-generation Plus product, Oomi shall have the right to automatically switch the Producer's product to Oomi Self-generation upon the termination of the Producer's electricity sales contract. Oomi shall notify the Producer of the amount of the basic fee and margin valid at the time of the change of product.
3. Technical requirements and liabilities
The place of use covered by the Agreement must have a remotely read meter.
Throughout the term of the Agreement, the Producer shall be responsible for all aspects of the generation equipment, for ensuring that the equipment is connected to the distribution network in accordance with the instructions of the local distribution system operator and for submitting the necessary commissioning notifications to the distribution system operator.
The Producer shall bear all costs related to the distribution network.
4. Other terms
The purpose of the Agreement is to purchase energy generated by the Producer's small-scale generation equipment in excess of the Producer's own electricity consumption. The Agreement is applicable to small-scale generation facilities with a rated power up to twenty-five (25) kilowatts. The Agreement is not applicable to battery sites.
Oomi shall organise invoicing and take care of the balance responsibility and imbalance settlements on the Producer’s behalf.
If the Producer has a valid electricity sales contract with Oomi, Oomi shall credit the Producer for the electricity generated by the Producer on their electricity sales invoice. If the Producer does not have a valid electricity sales contract with Oomi, Oomi shall pay the Producer for the electricity purchased under the Agreement and send the Producer a receipt showing the amount of electricity purchased and the average price.
In all cases, Oomi shall have the right to choose whether to deduct its receivables arising from any negative hourly spot prices from the compensation payable or to charge the Producer for them separately.
The Producer must notify Oomi of any changes to its VAT liability. Oomi shall not be responsible for verifying the origin of the electricity generated.
The Producer shall be obliged to notify Oomi without undue delay of any changes in its circumstances that have a material impact on the fulfilment of the Agreement.
Subject to mandatory legislation, Oomi's liability for any direct and indirect damage resulting from a breach of the Agreement is limited to cases where Oomi has acted intentionally or with gross negligence.
5. Disputes
The Agreement shall be governed by Finnish law, excluding any rules and principles that would give rise to the application of the law of another country.
Any disputes arising from the Agreement shall be settled in the district court of Oomi's domicile as the court of first instance.
