1. Guaranteed Revenue Stream (2026–2038):
   • The asset operates under a fixed feed-in tariff of €205.86 / MWh through December 2038, sheltering cash flows from power market volatility for more than a decade.
   • With an average volume of 2.00 GWh/year, the facility generates approximately €400,000 to €412,000 in gross annual revenues.
2. Residual Commercial Upside Post-Tariff (2039–2048):
   • Following tariff expiry in December 2038, the plant retains over 9 years of active concession rights through January 2048.
   • During this secondary phase, generation can be sold into the merchant wholesale market (PUN / market parity) or contracted via corporate Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) on a fully depreciated asset base.
