Aquila Clean Energy EMEA, Aquila Capital’s clean energy development platform in Europe, and the Estonian energy company Eesti Energia have signed a power purchase agreement (PPA) for 1.8 TWh.

 

Contract Overview

This agreement provides Eesti Energia with a stable solution for the long-term supply of clean energy sources. The electricity will be produced by a wind farm built by Aquila Clean Energy in Lithuania. APPs provide project developers with revenue security and energy companies with security of supply.

Joakim Johnsen, Head of Markets and Operations at Aquila Clean Energy commented: “We are delighted to finalize our first PPA in Lithuania. The country has great potential for the installation of wind power plants due to the favorable topographical conditions. We are very pleased that in Eesti Energia we have found an experienced and reliable contracting partner that will purchase the power on a long-term basis.”
