EDP signs landmark hybrid PPA with a leading company in Poland for a 322 MW portfolio
EDP, a leading company in long-term renewable energy contracts, and Energa, one of Poland’s largest energy groups, have signed a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) for the energy produced by four projects operating and in development by EDP Renewables in Poland, combining a total capacity of 322 MW.
With this contract, one of the largest ever signed in the country, EDP will supply Energa with approximately 600 GWh (0.6 TWh) of renewable energy per year from a multi-technology portfolio combining wind and solar across two sites located in the Wielkopolska region. EDP is developing two solar installations located near operational wind farms, creating two additional hybrid projects in Poland. The solar projects are scheduled to come into operation in 2026. These installations maximize renewable energy production using the grid connection and capacity available with complementary renewable technologies - wind and solar.
The energy produced under this PPA is expected to avoid over 600,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually, equivalent to removing approximately 400,000 cars from Polish roads, thereby supplying Energa and its clients with clean and affordable electricity.
"Concluding the contract with the EDP is a milestone for our company in the implementation of its sustainable development strategy. The agreement for the purchase of green energy with an annual volume up to a maximum of 600 GWh will translate into high price stability in the long term, and is also in line with the implementation of ESG requirements and support for the decarbonization process. This is proof that we consistently build value based on modern technologies and environmental responsibility," says Leszek Mrazek, President of Energa Obrót.
The long-termPPA marks a significant milestone in EDP’s growth strategy in Poland and its ambition to lead the energy transition across Europe. It also reinforces how EDP aims to deliver innovative solutions for all types of companies and their energy needs. EDP has more than 16 GW of renewable projects contracted in long-term agreements with leading companies worldwide.
EDP is a long-term investor in Poland’s energy transition: the group has already developed more than 1.3 GW in renewable projects across the country, with wind, solar, and storage assets in operation, and is also a key player in solar solutions for Polish companies.
