Norton Rose Fulbright Australia's energy team have launched the Guide to Corporate Power Purchase Agreements: Helping energy buyers to make the most of the growing renewable energy opportunity - prepared in collaboration with Energetics Australia in partnership with WWF’s Renewable Energy Buyers Forum.
As Australia transitions to clean energy generation, new opportunities are opening up for corporates. Many are exploring how they can access lower electricity prices and achieve greater price certainty through corporate renewable Power Purchase Agreements. But how do corporates – and their key decision-makers – navigate a deal against a backdrop of shifting market conditions and corporate drivers?
Aimed at executives and building on recently released tools, this new guide will equip corporates to understand the key risks, potential price impacts and the strategies that can be employed to maximise the value of a PPA.
While the guide has been written with the NSW market in mind, the insights will apply across all states and for all large energy users.
