PPA for industrial customers

When is a PPA the right choice for you?

• If you are looking for price stability: you want to make your energy costs calculable in the long term and protect yourself against volatile market prices.

• If you want to achieve your climate targets: you want to reduce your carbon footprint and actively contribute to the energy transition.

• If you want to maintain existing facilities: you want to support the continued operation of wind and solar power plants after the end of the EEG subsidy.

Corporate Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) for industrial customers

With a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) – a long-term purchase agreement for green electricity – you can secure stable and predictable electricity prices from renewable energies today. In times of volatile energy markets, PPAs provide companies with long-term planning security and serve as an effective hedging tool for energy procurement. At the same time, they meet increasing requirements for sustainability and transparency, for example in the context of ESG and CSRD reporting.

We tailor the PPA to your electricity procurement needs. The various options available include:

• Short, medium and long-term durations
• Variable delivery volumes
• Various supply models and price structures
• Hybrid supply structures with wind and PV
• 24/7 PPA
   

24/7 PPA – Green electricity for your company around the clock

Traditional PPAs usually balance electricity consumption on an annual basis with renewable generation. A 24/7 PPA goes one crucial step further: it ensures that your electricity needs are met with sustainably generated green electricity every hour of the year – not just on average over the year

To achieve this, we combine onshore wind and photovoltaic systems at various locations. Storage technologies or other renewable energy sources such as biomass or biomethane can also be integrated.

This creates the basis for a truly climate-neutral energy supply – transparent, verifiable and future-proof.

Existing plants

We pay special attention to post-EEG plants. These are plants that are no longer subsidised under the EEG. Despite the expiry of subsidies, plant operators usually still have to pay lease payments, finance continued operation reports and conclude follow-up contracts for maintenance and operational management. Due to the high volatility of the electricity markets, old plants often cannot continue to operate without a PPA. With a PPA, you can ensure that wind turbines for electricity generation in Germany are retained. You benefit from flexible supply models that are always based on the current market price.

PPAs for new plants

A PPA for new plants is usually concluded before the plant is built and serves to finance the project. The terms for PPAs for new plants are usually ten to 15 years and secure the electricity price for the new plant in the long term. PPAs for new plants are particularly useful in Germany for larger solar projects (> 20 MW) and offshore wind farms.

As your experts at ENGIE, we bring access to a large portfolio of wind and solar plants, extensive global experience and a customer base from a wide range of industries to your PPA project. Added to this is our expertise in risk management, which enables us to design tailor-made products for you – with competitive prices and straightforward contract terms.
