Corporate PPA Renewable energy purchase contracts

The consumption of 100% renewable energy is becoming a standard for industrial companies. Depending on the strategic needs of customers, we offer various solutions for the purchase of green energy.

In this solution, the energy goes from the renewable source to Axpo's portfolio, while Axpo delivers a fixed volume of energy to the customer at a fixed PPA price. Axpo then acts as a so-called sleeve, taking ownership of the energy produced by the RES and then including it in the energy invoice issued to the Customer.

All financial settlements occur only between the Producer and Axpo (with regard to energy production) and Axpo and the Energy Recipient (with regard to RES energy supply and the Recipient's other consumption), based on separate arrangements between the Producer and the Customer.

Both the Producer and the Customer enter into individual agreements with Axpo regarding this arrangement. Axpo also acts as the entity responsible for balancing.

In this solution, the energy goes from the renewable source directly to the Customer, and Axpo only supplies the deficient consumption volume not covered by the PPA (Power Purchase Agreement) volume. 

Axpo does not take ownership of the energy produced by the RES. 

Financial settlements occur between all parties to the cPPA structure, based on arrangements between the Producer, the Customer and Axpo.

Both the Producer and the Customer enter into individual agreements with Axpo regarding this arrangement.

This structure consists of an energy price derived from an independent portfolio of PPAs signed by Axpo in the past. 

In addition, the customer is offered an energy supply contract that includes balancing services and the purchase of residual consumption in one of the models offered by Axpo.

If the financial structure is chosen, the contract is based on the so-called Contract of Differences CfD solution (which involves settling the difference between the agreed cPPA price and the market price from the spot market.
