Energy Generation
Maximise the benefit energy generation brings to business
We offer a choice of innovative contracts that appeal to generators, investors and businesses interested in sleeving the energy they produce.
Selling Energy
If your customers generate energy on-site, or are looking to start, we can help you to help them, by identifying the best route to market and maximising the value of the energy they sell.
Choose budget certainty
A fixed-price Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) offers a set price for each unit your clients export upfront, providing a guaranteed income stream in a volatile market. Simple to manage, standard fixed-price PPAs allow the price to be set for 6-36 months and sometimes longer.
Key Features
- Enjoy budget certainty - with a guaranteed energy price no matter how the market behaves
- Simple to manage – once you sign your contract, minimal time and input is required from you or your clients
- Full support– an Account Manager is always on-hand to offer any help you need
Or spread your risk
- Flex Innovate PPA – all the benefits of a regular Flexible PPA but with added features to reflect the greater level of management input required. For example, a choice of both the APX or N2EX indices to trade on, and no volume tolerance.
- N2EX PPA – trade your customers’ volume on the N2EX day-ahead auction, delivering a daily average price for both base-load and peak-load. Other features include a lower Imbalance Premium, no annual reconciliations and no volume tolerance restrictions for intermittent technologies like wind or solar
- System Sell Price (SSP) PPA – the option best suited to generation with sporadic output, or newly commissioned plant.. With the usual forecasting requirement removed and no additional balance or volume-related fees, your customers have greater flexibility around the volume they generate, so they don’t incur any penalties for under or over generation
- Contracts for Difference (CfD) PPA – Contracts for Difference (CFD) PPA – this PPA works alongside a CFD agreement to provide a minimum price per unit for your customers’ power
