Secure a reliable supply of electricity at a fixed price
Each company has a role to play in the global energy transition. It is now possible to decarbonise your activities while securing a sustainable provision of electricity at a fixed price, thanks to PPAs.
What is a PPA?
A PPA is an agreement to sell electricity directly between an energy producer and a company. It allows the company to power its site(s) with electricity at a fixed price for a specified period. BayWa r.e. offers a range of decarbonised PPA solutions through its wind and solar farms in France and around the world.
What are the benefits of PPAs?
Free yourself from energy price volatility with a contract that offers a fixed rate
Gain clarity on your energy costs for several years
Decarbonise your operations and receive green electricity certificates
How can you benefit from a PPA?
Any company can enter into a PPA with BayWa r.e. Our contracts are tailored to your electricity needs and are available for periods ranging from 10 to 25 years.
If the company owns land close to one of our production sites, or has the capacity to host a renewable energy farm, a site-specific PPA can be arranged. If not, our off-site PPA can facilitate the integration of a renewable energy project on a different piece of land.
Our different types of PPA
Our PPAs are tailored to your energy needs, land availability, and financial resources.
Direct PPA: Our solution for self-consumption
In the case of a direct PPA, the electricity production site is physically connected to the consumption site, meaning the electricity does not pass through the public grid. This is known as a self-consumption solution with a guaranteed rate.
Our successful PPA projects
Convinced that companies and industries all have a role to play in the energy transition, we invite everyone to get involved. PPAs are a tangible means of reducing carbon footprint while avoiding the fluctuations of the electricity market.
We have signed over sixty PPA contracts globally, totalling more than 1.9 GW in our portfolio, including nearly 600 MW with both industrial and commercial companies. Explore some of our case studies:
Budweiser: A financial PPA that powers brewing with renewable energy
Signed in 2020, the 10-year PPA contract between AB InBev and BayWa r.e. enables the renowned brewery to power its operations with renewable energy through two solar farms in Spain, with a combined capacity of 170 MWp.
Tesco Store: A corporate PPA that enabled the construction of the first unsubsidised wind farm in the United Kingdom
With the goal of sourcing 100% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2030, Tesco Store has signed a 15-year PPA with BayWa r.e. This agreement enabled the construction of the Inverclyde wind farm, the first unsubsidised wind farm in the United Kingdom.
Velux: The first European corporate agrivoltaic PPA
Since 2024, the 10-year corporate PPA signed with Velux enables the company to power its operations with 100% renewable energy. This contract facilitated the construction of two solar farms in Spain, with a portion of one farm dedicated entirely to Agri-PV.
