Renewable electricity supply for businesses

Electricity supply from renewable energy (PPA)

Predictable costs, reliable supply

A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is a long-term renewable electricity supply contract designed for companies with high energy demand. Instead of being exposed to volatile market prices, businesses secure fixed conditions and a reliable power supply for many years.

The electricity comes from a specifically named wind or solar plant and is delivered at an agreed contractual price. This provides cost transparency, reduces price risks and enables verifiable CO₂ accounting. PPAs therefore offer a stable and predictable foundation for corporate energy supply.

Types of PPAs

The VSB Group offers various types of PPAs tailored to your individual energy needs:

On-site Electricity generated directly on your site

With an on-site PPA, the generation plant is located on your premises or in close proximity. Electricity is supplied directly to your facility without using the public grid. This reduces grid charges, improves supply security and maximises cost advantages. VSB covers the investment for planning, construction and operation – you simply purchase the electricity under agreed conditions. Ideal for energy-intensive sites with available roof or open space and high self-consumption.

Near-site Renewable electricity from the local area

With a near-site PPA, you receive renewable electricity from a nearby wind or solar plant from the VSB portfolio. The power is delivered via a private direct connection without using the public grid, including guarantees of origin.
You benefit from predictable electricity costs, high supply reliability and regional generation – even without available space at your own site.

Off-site Renewable electricity regardless of your location

With an off-site PPA, you source renewable electricity from a specific wind or solar plant in the VSB portfolio via the public grid. You receive guarantees of origin and long-term stable prices – ideal for companies with high energy demand that want to improve their CO₂ balance without using on-site land.

Our renewable electricity supply contracts help you unlock its full potential.

Lower electricity costs – immediately and long-term

The more self-generated electricity you use, the less grid power you need to purchase. This significantly reduces your energy cost

Reliable supply

Benefit from VSB Group’s proven track record in developing and operating renewable energy projects.

Price stability instead of market volatility

With on-site / near-site solutions, electricity is generated at near production cost. With off-site PPAs, prices can be fixed for 5–15 years.

Independence through intelligent energy management

Storage and control systems reduce grid-related charges, increase available capacity and optimise electricity use when prices are low. Your electricity works for your business – not against it.

Case Studies

VSB & Mercedes-Benz – Europe’s first automotive PPA

For its plant in Jawor, Mercedes-Benz secured long-term wind power supply through VSB from the nearby Taczalin wind farm (45.1 MW). This first corporate PPA of its kind in the European automotive industry now supplies the site entirely with renewable electricity

VSB & Lhyfe – Long-term partnership for renewable hydrogen

In France, VSB supplies hydrogen pioneer Lhyfe with electricity from the 13.2 MW Buléon wind farm under a long-term PPA. The facility produces up to two tonnes of green hydrogen per day using 100% renewable electricity from the region.

VSB & Carrefour – Five PPAs for renewable retail power

Five PPAs with a total capacity of 43.3 MW supply 26 Carrefour hypermarkets in France with wind and solar power. The partnership shows how major consumers can secure long-term renewable electricity while reducing their CO₂ footprint.
