Virtual Power Purchase Agreements have emerged as a crucial tool for corporations seeking to meet their renewable energy goals while managing market risks. This contract type allows organizations to support new renewable energy projects without requiring physical delivery of electricity. The VPPA structure, commonly used in U.S. markets, provides a hedge against electricity price volatility while enabling renewable energy project development. It includes provisions for financial settlement, renewable energy credits, and risk allocation between parties, making it particularly suitable for companies with sustainability targets and distributed energy loads across multiple regions.
