The rise of Power Purchase Agreements in Europe and their role in new markets

DWF and Solarplaza assess whether different approaches to structure, standardisation and risk associated with offtake arrangements can enhance the future of solar investments

It is a great pleasure to introduce this report on off-take arrangements in Europe that has been co-developed by Solarplaza and DWF. During the “Making Solar Bankable” conference that took place in Amsterdam on February 7, 2020, a large number of industry experts from around the world came together to discuss the latest developments in the solar sector. The purpose of this conference was to learn from world-class keynote speakers and participate in interactive workshops that all relate to increasing the bankability of solar energy. Within the conference, DWF hosted a workshop on off-take arrangements in emerging markets. Our workshop, along with the associated survey, was an undeniable opportunity to assess the opinions of a wide range of global experts and gain insight into possible ways forward for off-take arrangements. The findings from our research are summarised in this report.
