ENGIE Signs Long-Term PPA with Apple in Italy

80% of the green energy produced will be supplied to Apple through a PPA with a maximum length of 15 years

ENGIE has signed a 15-year renewable Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Apple, reinforcing its strategy to accelerate the deployment of green energy solutions through large-scale, diversified technologies.

Through this agreement, ENGIE will build two wind farms (74 MW), one wind repowering (11 MW) and two agrivoltaics plants (88 MW). All are already authorized, will be located in the South of Italy, and will be operational between 2026 and 2027. These facilities will have a total installed capacity of 173 MW and will generate over 400 GWh of electricity annually.

In total, 80% of the energy produced will be allocated to Apple, while the remaining 20% will be injected into the grid, helping to meet the yearly needs of approximately 30,000 households. Each year, more than 160,000 tons of CO₂ will be avoided, equivalent to the emissions of nearly 70,000 conventional cars.

“This agreement with Apple demonstrates ENGIE’s ambition to lead the energy transition by delivering innovative with diverse technologies. Through strategic partnerships like this one, we are accelerating the shift toward a carbon-neutral future, accompanying our clients in their sustainability journey” says Edouard Neviaski, EVP in charge of the GBU Supply and Energy Management at ENGIE.

ENGIE is accelerating the deployment of renewable Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) worldwide, positioning them as a key lever to support clients in their decarbonization journey. These long-term green electricity contracts enable businesses to secure stable energy prices, reduce exposure to market volatility, and significantly lower their carbon footprint. ENGIE acts as a trusted partner, offering tailored solutions that meet the specific needs of industrial players, large corporates, and commercial entities.

With 4,3 GW of contracted renewable PPA in 2024 alone, ENGIE is a key player among green energy sellers globally for PPAs. Italy stands out as a strong example of this commitment, where ENGIE is actively responding to the growing demand from companies seeking reliable, cost-effective, and sustainable energy solutions.

In Italy, this project is part of ENGIE’s renewable energy and storage development plan, which aims to reach 1,6 GW of installed capacity by 2030. The Group already has a portfolio of 773 MW of installed capacity in the country, either operational or under construction, including 18 photovoltaic plants (250 MW), 20 wind farms (474 MW), and 4 storage batteries (49 MW).
