What is a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)?

A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is a long-term contract that allows businesses to either purchase or sell electricity generated from renewable sources. PPAs provide financial stability for all parties involved, ensuring predictable pricing and fostering investment in renewable energy projects.

By enabling both the procurement and sale of renewable energy, PPAs play a critical role in accelerating the global energy transition and reducing CO2 emissions. Whether you're a buyer or seller, a PPA allows your organization to contribute to a sustainable future.
