On Track For A Low Carbon Energy Future – Centrica Signs Corporate Power Deal With Deutsche Bahn

The title of this post, is the same as that of this press release from Centrica.

These two paragraphs outline the deal.

Centrica Energy Trading has signed a two-year corporate power purchase agreement (PPA) with Deutsche Bahn, Germany’s national railway company.

Starting January 2024, Centrica will offtake power from three onshore wind farms with an installed capacity of 60.7 MW. The sites, developed by Prokon AG in Germany, have a total of 45 turbines and will provide approximately 70GWh of renewable electricity annually to Deutsche Bahn.

Sounds like good business to me! You buy electricity from three German onshore wind farms and flog it to a large German company and probably get an appropriate commission in Euros.

  1. They’re all at it, we’ve recently had Network Rail and EDF, SNCF and Voltalia, and a few years back the people that run HS1 and npower.
