Benefit from lower production costs: An individual purchase agreement for green energy creates planning security at an attractive price level.
With a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) – a purchase agreement for green electricity – you benefit from the sharp drop in the cost of producing energy from renewable sources and can secure an attractive price level in the long term. At the same time, you ensure that additional green energy generation systems can be connected to the German electricity grid or be operated further.
For the design of the PPA, we are geared to your needs in power procurement. The different design options include:
We pay special attention to post-EEG systems. These are plants which are no longer funded under the EEG. This will happen by 2023, for example, with wind turbines of the first hour with a total output of almost 4 GW. In spite of the expiring subsidy, system operators generally have to continue to pay leases, finance continuing operations reports and conclude subsequent maintenance and operational contracts. Owing to the high volatility in the electricity markets, old plants therefore often cannot continue to operate without a PPA. With a PPA, you ensure that wind turbines are retained for power generation in Germany. You benefit from flexible delivery models that are always based on the current market price.
A PPA for new installations is normally concluded before the plant is built and is used to finance the project. PPAs for new plants are usually run for ten to 15 years and secure the electricity price for the new plant in the long term. PPAs for new plants in Germany are particularly useful for larger solar projects> (20 MW) and offshore wind farms.
As your expert from ENGIE we bring access to a large portfolio of wind- and solar systems as well as extensive worldwide experience and a customer base from various industries into your PPA project. In addition, our expertise in risk management enables us to design customized products for you – with competitive prices and straight-forward contract design.
