Power Offtake Agreement

"I need a Power Offtake Agreement under Irish law for a 50MW solar farm in County Cork, with commercial operations starting January 2025, including provisions for renewable energy credits and battery storage facilities."

Document background
Power Offtake Agreements are essential commercial instruments in Ireland's energy market, used to establish long-term arrangements for the sale and purchase of electricity between generators and offtakers. These agreements are particularly crucial in the context of Ireland's renewable energy targets and its participation in the Single Electricity Market (SEM) with Northern Ireland. The document typically details the technical, commercial, and operational aspects of power supply, including pricing mechanisms, delivery obligations, and performance standards. It incorporates relevant Irish and EU energy regulations, grid connection requirements, and market operation rules. POAs are commonly used to secure project financing for new power generation facilities and provide revenue certainty for both established and developing energy projects.
