Under a series of corporate Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) agreed last week, Amazon will buy up 650 MW of renewable energy offtake from electric utility company ENGIE.
The surge of power will stem from wind and solar projects in the United States, Italy, and France.
For ENGIE, this represents the largest portfolio of agreements signed at once with a single organization.
For Amazon, it marks a major inroad to achieving power from 100 percent renewable energy by 2030 and to reach net zero carbon by 2040.
“These contracts demonstrate ENGIE’s capabilities to commercialize green energy internationally for our customers,” said Gwenaëlle Avice-Huet, ENGIE’s executive vice president in charge of the Renewables Business Line and CEO of ENGIE North America. “And in North America – as elsewhere – we recognize that bold commitments are needed from global companies and local communities alike to lead the way to clean energy use. We are excited to work with Amazon to create a clean, prosperous, low carbon future – and create economic benefits for the communities involved.”
