European PPA Offtakers

Overview

European PPA announcements are public, but they are scattered across company newsrooms, stock-exchange filings and trade press, and they are rarely comparable. This directory brings them into one register so that anyone who sells, finances or advises on power in Europe can see who buys under PPAs, from whom, where, on what disclosed terms and how often.

It covers contracts first announced between 1 January 2024 and 25 September 2026 for generating assets in the EU-27, the United Kingdom, Norway, Switzerland, Iceland, the Western Balkans, Ukraine and Moldova. Corporate and public-sector buyers are profiled; utilities, suppliers and traders that buy to resell are listed separately. The law firms, PPA advisers and brokers, lenders and financial and technical advisers named on the contracts are covered in their own part.

Every term is recorded as it was announced. A term that was not announced is printed as not stated and never estimated, volumes are never converted between MW, MWp and GWh, and a figure announced for a whole plant is never attributed to one buyer. Every contract links to the announcements behind it.

What this edition covers

Service providers — law firms, PPA advisers and brokers, lenders, and financial, technical and other advisers, with every contract each is named on and the side it acted for. Rankings and prospect lists — the most active buyer groups, the largest disclosed contracts, the seller league table and repeat relationships, and buyers first seen in the last twelve months. Closes with scope and definitions, a glossary, indexes of buyer groups and service providers, and the sources for every record.
