Long-term assets need a deliberate revenue strategy
A wind or solar installation produces over many years. Selling that production solely against short-term market prices leaves revenues exposed to changing market conditions throughout that period.
For some producers, that exposure is intentional. For others, longer-term price visibility is important for investment decisions, financing or portfolio risk management.
At the same time, corporate energy users increasingly seek direct, traceable access to renewable production.
A CPPA connects those two commercial needs.
What is a CPPA?
A Corporate Power Purchase Agreement is a longer-term arrangement that commercially links renewable generation to corporate electricity demand.
Within Scholt's existing structure, you continue to operate your renewable installation and inject electricity into the grid. Scholt Energy purchases the generated electricity together with the associated Guarantees of Origin where agreed.
We then supply that electricity and the corresponding GvOs to one or more corporate off-takers under the CPPA structure.
The electricity follows the asset's actual generation profile, creating a transparent commercial relationship between renewable production and corporate demand.
The agreement typically contains longer-term pricing arrangements. The precise duration, price mechanism, volume treatment and allocation of risks are contract-specific.
When is a CPPA relevant?
This may be relevant if you...
- want greater visibility over renewable electricity revenues for a longer period;
- want to connect your production to identifiable corporate demand;
- are developing or operating a solar or wind project with a long investment horizon;
- want electricity and associated GvOs incorporated into one commercial structure;
- need a clear allocation of forecasting, balancing and settlement responsibilities;
A Full Flex PPA may be more suitable when you want greater exposure to wholesale-market movements and more active control over hedging.
For a qualifying Dutch project where the SDE methodology is central to your revenue model, SDE Outperformer may offer a better-aligned structure.
Scholt Energy manages the route from production to market
“You own and operate the renewable installation.
The corporate off-taker provides the underlying long-term demand within the agreed structure.
Scholt Energy acts as the commercial and operational link between both sides. We purchase renewable production and associated GvOs, supply these to corporate customers and manage the market processes required between production and consumption.
Our existing CPPA proposition includes contract structuring, electricity procurement, onward supply, BRP activities, forecasting, imbalance management, financial settlement and GvO administration.
This lets both producer and off-taker focus on their own operations while responsibilities around the energy market are clearly organised.”
Build a CPPA around your production and commercial objectives
A useful CPPA starts with your asset rather than a standard contract template.
Discuss your production profile, existing commitments, preferred contract horizon and revenue objectives with our specialists. Together, we can assess whether corporate offtake fits your project.
