Alberta Power Symposium

Session Highlights:

Under a corporate renewable PPA, a company or institution agrees to purchase electricity directly from a green energy generator. Power generated on the site feeds back into the grid, offsetting the amount of electricity consumed by that company.

• Exploring recent power purchase agreements with corporate buyers and the role that ESG has played in these decisions
• Opportunities for these electricity projects to contribute to decarbonizing the grid and provide developers with greater financial certainty
• Path to net zero – role of corporate PPA’s to achieve renewable goals
• Exploring how Alberta can maintain its advantage in corporate PPA’s; what are the opportunities in other provinces?
