Our renewables expertise

Onsite energy generation and storage

With hundreds of installations across North America, we provide onsite renewable energy generation and storage at a local scale for customers nationwide. We can help customers run facilities more efficiently, optimize energy and resource use, generate clean power, store energy, and power their operations.

Community Solar

With 40 installations across North America representing 100 MW, ENGIE develops community solar gardens (CSGs) that bring renewable energy to businesses, residents and municipalities that don’t have the resources for on-site solar or direct power purchase agreements (PPAs).

Energy Supply

We have supplied retail electricity to commercial and industrial customers since 2002. We have retail energy supply expertise with wholesale renewable capabilities, structured origination and trading, and risk and asset management.

We are the only TOP 5 commercial electricity provider in North America without significant merchant thermal generation.

Power Purchase Agreements

Electricity icon

We provide tailored physical and virtual renewable power purchase agreements (PPAs) for commercial, institutional and utility customers to fit their specific objectives.

A PPA is a Power Purchase Agreement. In the renewable energy industry, these are typically a long-term contract for the purchase of power and associated Renewable Energy Credits (“RECs”) from a specific renewable energy project (the seller) to a purchaser of the electricity (the buyer).

What is a typical term length for a PPA contract?

Contract lengths can vary depending on the location of the asset, the technology (wind, solar, battery storage project), and the entity buying the power. The typical long-term PPA can range from about 10 years up to 25+ years.

What are the different types of PPA?

There are two main types of PPAs — a physical PPA and Virtual or Corporate PPAs. Physical PPAs are most often contracted with buyers, such as traditional investor-owned utilities (IOUs), municipal utilities or cooperative utilities. Virtual or Corporate PPAs (VPPAs or CPPAs) typically are contracted with corporations who are pursuing renewable energy as part of their broader sustainability or ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) goals.

Renewable Energy Credits (RECs)

Juggle icon

We provide RECs to companies looking to make fast progress on sustainability plans, environmentally responsible organizations with low-risk appetites and those seeking flexibility in contract term commitments.

Sold separately or in combination with electricity agreements, renewable energy certificates (RECs) represent the environmental attributes or benefits associated with a specific quantity of energy generated from a renewable source, such as solar or wind.

Why are RECs used?

Organizations use RECs to offset their indirect greenhouse gas emissions which help fund the operation and development of domestic renewable energy.

Our Differentiators

Engaging Stakeholders
Wind energy is a readily available renewable resource that does not need to be extracted or mined like fossil fuels. This makes wind a more reliable energy source over the long term.
Valuing Communities
We are proud to be part of more than 100 local communities in North America.  As long-term owner operators of many of our projects, we become neighbors and part of the community, creating short- and long-term local jobs and providing economic benefits that help fund schools, roads, first responders and local services through tax revenues and other payments. And for our landowners, we support their efforts as trusted stewards of their community and land.
Ensuring Process Safety
Safety is our number one priority — because lives depend on it.
We hold ourselves to shared high standards of safety and provide employee training, track our performance and follow our No Life at Risk, No Mind at Risk and No Asset at Risk prevention policies. We remain vigilant in monitoring these risks through our 9 Life Saving Rules that each ENGIE employee or contractor must abide by.
Helping protect the environment

We look for sustainable solutions to preserve the health and diversity of the ecosystems we work in, while limiting our footprint on the flora, fauna and people who live there. Our renewables projects are designed, executed and managed with our commitment to environmental standards.

Promoting dual land use
Our renewables projects provide opportunities to promote dual land use – a way of using the land that can help the environment, protect biodiversity, and preserve the land for future agricultural use. From grazing and pollinators at  solar sites to livestock and farming at wind projects, ENGIE works with landowners and communities to promote sustainability.
