PPA structures, explained.
The structures we price and execute, in plain terms. Full definitions live in the energy markets glossary.
What is a power purchase agreement (PPA)?
A PPA is a long-term contract between an electricity generator and a buyer that fixes the commercial terms of power supply — price, tenor, volume and shape — ahead of delivery. In GB, corporate and utility PPAs commonly run over 3, 5 or 10-year tenors across offshore wind, onshore wind and solar PV.
What is a pay-as-produced (PaP) PPA?
Under a pay-as-produced structure the buyer takes the generator’s output as it is produced, at an agreed price per MWh. The buyer carries the shape and volume risk of the asset’s actual generation profile, which is why PaP typically prices at a discount to baseload.
What is the difference between a baseload and a shaped PPA?
A baseload PPA delivers a flat, constant volume in every settlement period, independent of how the underlying asset generates. A shaped PPA sits between pay-as-produced and baseload: delivery follows a profile agreed up front, with the residual shape risk priced into the contract.
What is a sleeved PPA?
A sleeved PPA is a physical structure in which a licensed supplier sits between the generator and the corporate buyer, “sleeving” the power through its supply licence and handling balancing, imbalance and residual supply alongside the PPA volumes.
What is a virtual (financial) PPA?
A virtual PPA is settled financially rather than through physical delivery. The parties agree a strike price against a market reference and exchange the difference, while each side continues to buy or sell power through its existing routes. Virtual structures are often used by corporates contracting at scale across multiple sites.
Who does ETC work with?
ETC works with renewable energy developers and asset owners, BESS operators, corporate and industrial buyers, utilities and suppliers, and energy traders and advisors — focused on GB, with European majors on the counterparty network.
