What is a Corporate Power Purchase Agreement?

A Corporate Power Purchase Agreement (CPPA) is a type of long-term relationship between a corporate energy consumer (often called offtaker) and Scatec’s renewable power plant (often called generator). Typically, agreements are focused on a 10–20-year tenor signed in which a specified amount of green energy is secured at a fixed price. However, one of the key benefits of signing a CPPA with Scatec is our long-term approach towards offtakers. e offer tailored CPPAs to specific needs of our customers.

“ As in every renewable CPPA signed, not only do we assure that sustainability related factors are met but also economic ones, such as long-term energy cost stability. However, where Scatec differentiates itself is our ability to tailor this service and
our long-term partnership mentality”
