The perfect partner for your PPA

RWE is one of the largest renewable energy players. We are one of the global leaders in developing, constructing, operating and owning utility-scale renewable projects.

We understand our partners' needs and offer specifically designed and tailored products. We know that Corporate PPAs can be complex and by partnering with us, we can help make this simple and straightforward.

With PPAs, your company can benefit from steady and predictable costs while improving your carbon footprint and promoting your green image.

What is a PPA

A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is a long-term contract under which a business agrees to purchase electricity directly from a renewable energy generator. Power Purchase Agreements provide financial certainty to you and the project developer, which removes a significant roadblock to building new renewable facilities.

PPAs therefore help to deliver more renewable energy, saving CO2. Your company can make the difference and shape the renewable future.

Contact us and we will offer you the best, tailored solution for your company – for a sustainable long-term partnership!

Physical PPA

  • RWE delivers power directly to the customer and receives the PPA price

“The agreement with RWE represents a major step toward our carbon footprint reduction goals. Sofidel emissions reduction targets – -40% emissions per ton of paper by 2030 compared with 2018 base year – have been approved by the Science Based Targets initiative as consistent with levels required to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement,” “This is also in line with what the latest climate science says is needed to prevent the worst impacts of climate change. In our commitment to a low carbon economy we regard PPAs as an useful and effective tool to source renewable power for our industrial operations and, at the same time, trigger the creation of additional generation capacity, aimed at sustaining the green energy transition.”

Riccardo Balducci, Sofidel Energy & Environment Director
