🎉 REZOLV’S BIGGEST PPA SO FAR IN ROMANIA IS SIGNED! 🎉   Actis-backed Rezolv Energy has signed another major Virtual Power Purchase Agreement (VPPA), this time with A2A, an Italian group active in the energy, water and environment sectors.   Here are the headlines:   📝 Through the VPPA, A2A will buy 150 GWh of renewable energy per year for seven years   💪 The renewable energy generated, which could power around 73,000 households annually, will help avoid almost 63,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions 🏅 This is the sixth VPPA that Rezolv has signed since June. Together, these VPPAs equate to 460 GWh per year – more PPA capacity than any other developer has secured in South Eastern Europe 👷 It will help enable the construction of the first phase of the 461MW ‘VIFOR’ wind farm, which Rezolv is building in Buzău County, Romania 💨 Phase 1 of the VIFOR project will install 192MW in capacity – Phase 2 will make a further 700GWh available to corporate buyers   Alastair Hammond, Rezolv’s CEO, said: “Virtual Power Purchase Agreements are still a relatively new concept in South Eastern Europe but they are becoming an increasingly important facilitator of the energy transition. In this case, we can simultaneously contribute to decarbonisation objectives and help Romania meet its climate targets. It’s a win-win.”   Korpanec, Jaroslava, Partner and Head of Central and Eastern Europe, Energy Infrastructure at Actis, said: “The momentum around Rezolv’s VIFOR wind farm in Romania continues with yet another VPPA signing. Once again, this demonstrates the strong demand for clean, renewable energy that exists in the C&I market as businesses look to decarbonise and meet their net zero targets. Congratulations to the Rezolv team for getting these agreements over the line while powering on with the development of its projects.” The full story is here: https://lnkd.in/d3EcbSPA #EnergyTransition #RenewableEnergy #cleanpower #sustainability #PPA #VPPA #CEE #SEE

Spain’s installed renewable power generation capacity has skyrocketed in the last decade or two. 🚀 Since 2008, wind capacity has x2, and solar energy capacity has x8. ☀️ Investment in energy transition, government subsidies and deregulation to encourage installation have helped to boost capacity but in today’s lower-price environment, investors are pausing or having second thoughts before deploying capital to new projects which may not generate sufficient returns. According to UNEF, Spain’s solar PV association, lower prices and higher costs (of materials and labor) have contributed to a 26% year-on-year decline in installed capacity in Q1 2024. As challenging as the financing environment for renewable energy projects may be, the Spanish climate means that the country can produce renewable power at very low costs, which, when combined with improving technology and supportive investors, puts the sector in a position to remain viable. Even in tough circumstances, we are seeing operators, developers, investors and lenders working together to find a way through and we are confident Spain will navigate it’s way to an even brighter, greener future. Happy National Day for tomorrow to our delegates on the current Sonnedix programme ☀️ #spain #nationalday #renewableenergy #solarpower

Investment in renewable energy is not just an option; it's a necessity for a sustainable future. Romania's renewable energy sector, particularly solar PV and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), is at the forefront of this transformation. The commitment to expand solar PV installations and integrate BESS projects highlights Romania's proactive approach in harnessing clean energy. These investments are crucial for enhancing energy security, supporting grid stability, and propelling the country towards its 2030 decarbonisation objectives. But what sets Romania apart in the renewables market? It's the strategic blend of policy support, geographical advantage, and a growing ecosystem of expertise. This combination makes Romania's renewable sector ripe for investment, innovation, and growth. The advancement in solar PV and BESS underscores the pivotal role these technologies play in Romania's energy transition. It's not just about generating renewable energy; it's about creating a resilient, efficient, and sustainable energy system for future generations.
