CPPA

Corporate Power Purchase Agreements

A CPPA is a contractual arrangement between a business and a renewable energy generator, such as a solar or wind farm. Through this agreement, businesses commit to purchasing electricity directly from renewable sources for a fixed term at a predetermined price. This empowers businesses to support renewable energy projects while benefiting from stable energy costs and demonstrating environmental leadership.

By entering into a CPPA, businesses can not only reduce their carbon footprint but also secure reliable and cost-effective renewable energy sources.

Up until last year it was only the larger multinationals in Ireland like Amazon, Microsoft and Google signing Corporate Power Purchase Agreements (CPPAs).

Flogas Enterprise has been at the forefront of facilitating renewable energy adoption through Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) across the Republic of Ireland (ROI) and Northern Ireland (NI). With a dedicated renewables team and a robust portfolio of PPAs with independent developers, Flogas Enterprise offers businesses a direct pathway to renewable energy procurement.

With record high energy prices and net zero carbon deadlines, now is a good time to invest in renewable energy projects.

In a volatile energy market, having a fixed price for the supply of electricity through a CPPA is not only good for the environment, but it is also great for budgeting. This solution was hedged at a price that is reflective of current market price level, but delivers budget certainty and sustainability benefits.”
