RWE has signed a 15-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with Breedon Group to supply renewable electricity from its wind portfolio to the construction materials company’s operations in UK.
Under the deal, RWE will provide around 70 gigawatt hours of electricity per year, initially from the 576 MW Gwynt y Môr offshore wind farm off North Wales and later from the Brechfa Forest West onshore wind farm from 2033.
