The A2A Group, one of Italy’s largest players in the energy transition, and Enfinity Global Inc, a leader in renewable energy, announced the signing of a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) for three of Enfinity’s solar photovoltaic projects in the Lazio region, totaling 97 MW of solar energy capacity.
The agreement, set to commence in July 2025, stipulates that A2A will offtake approximately 160 GWh/year of clean energy of the renewable energy produced by the plants, equivalent to the annual electricity consumption of approximately 64.000 families in Italy, offsetting the emission of more than 60.000 tons of CO2 emissions.
With this agreement, Enfinity Global with 232 MW, becomes Italy’s largest provider of cumulative contracted capacity through long-term energy sale agreements. In addition, Enfinity Italy has 500 MW of fully permitted solar power plants, 1.8 GW of solar power plants in advanced permitted stages, and 2 GW of storage projects.
