Flogas revolutionizes PPA Model for SMEs: Flogas and Ørsted Deliver Wind Power to Medium-sized and Large Companies in Ireland

Dublin (Ireland) – Flogas, a company of the Irish DCC Group, has launched a new Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) model in collaboration with Ørsted Onshore Ireland. Medium-sized and large companies can now source electricity directly from the Knockawarriga Wind Farm in Co. Limerick – generated by Ørsted, a leading provider of renewable energy.

Flogas’ multi-buyer corporate PPA (CPPA) model allows for flexible purchase volumes tailored to the specific needs of companies, without requiring them to commit to the entire output of the wind farm. The goal is to accelerate decarbonization and make renewable energy more accessible to a broader range of local businesses.

The first partners come from sectors such as financial services, insurance, manufacturing, hospitality, and food production – including Walsh Mushrooms Group and Allianz Worldwide Care. Over the next 12 months, more than 20 medium-sized and large businesses are expected to be supplied.

“It is often the case that power purchase agreements are for the largest multinationals, but this initiative reflects Flogas’ vision of ‘Democratizing CPPAs’, making renewable energy purchase agreements accessible beyond just the largest corporations, and opening the door for more Irish businesses to take control of their energy future,” said John Rooney, Managing Director at Flogas Ireland. Ørsted emphasizes the importance of wind farms like Knockawarriga for Ireland’s energy supply and local energy transition.

With this step, Flogas and Ørsted demonstrate that Irish companies of all sizes can shape their energy supply sustainably and actively contribute to CO₂ reduction.
