RWE to supply Ineos with green electricity and support it in reaching its climate protection targets
RWE and Ineos have now signed a 10-year Power Purchase Agreement for 198 gigawatthours of renewable energy.
The green electricity will be supplied from 2021 onwards from the Northwester 2 wind farm in the Belgian North Sea. With this deal, the green power supply will save 745,000 tonnes of CO2 at the INEOS sites in Belgium.
"This agreement with RWE is another important step as we further reduce our carbon emissions from our energy consumption in Belgium. Combined with our earlier agreement in September, the deals reduce our carbon footprint by nearly 2 million tonnes of Carbon Dioxide. We will continue to look at the options for further expanding the use of renewable energy, as agreements such as this support our roadmap towards a reduction in carbon based energy across our sites."
