RWE Renewables 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.

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!
