Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) are a great way to sell the energy you generate.

Whether you generate electricity from wind, solar, biomass, anaerobic digestion, landfill gas, sewage gas, energy from waste, advanced conversion technology or CHP, we have the right PPA for your business. 

EDF Energy PPAs are a great way to sell electricity you export to the grid, as well as your renewable energy certificates, if your business generates electricity on a commercial scale. - That’s installations larger than 250KW and registered in the Renewable Obligation scheme.

If your installations are smaller than 250KW, the Feed-In Tariff scheme is normally a better option. But you can always speak to us if you’d prefer a PPA.

Choose your PPA

From super simple to fantastically flexible, we offer a range of PPAs to fit your approach to generating and selling electricity. Pick the one that's right for you:

Expert PPA

  • Gives you full control over your energy management
  • Ideal for experienced generators with consistent and reliable output who want full control over timing, quantity and frequency of power sales
  • Well suited to: biomass, anaerobic digestion, landfill gas, sewage gas and energy from waste
  • Requires a minimum output of 10,000MWh per year (and greater than 250 kW per installation)
expert PPA > 10,000MWH year, 1 year to 5 year, control
energy output predictable, your forecast sophisticated, management highly active, expertise expert

Certainty PPA

  • Gives you price certainty and protection from wholesale market price volatility
  • Ideal for generators who have a high level of control over their output and want price certainty
  • Well- suited to: established wind and solar, biomass, anaerobic digestion, landfill gas, sewage gas and energy from waste
  • Requires a minimum output of 250MWh per year
Certainty PPA, superior to 250 MWh per year, 1 month to 3 years, certainty
Energy output consistent, your forecast predictable, management less active, expertise basic

Clarity PPA

  • Gives you flexibility to export your power when you want and get a market reflective price
  • Ideal for generators with a variable output who want less exposure to wholesale market prices
