Corporate PPAs surge to 58% in Europe as Spain leads capacity in August

In August 2025, 9 PPAs were signed across Europe, reaching a combined capacity of 437 MW, according to the monthly analysis prepared by Our New Energy (ONE). Solar PV emerged as the leading technology, securing 54% of the total volume, driven by the two largest agreements of the month.

Spain topped the regional ranking with two PPAs totalling 181.7 MW, followed by Poland (109 MW) and Italy (65.4 MW). “In August, 9 PPAs were signed in Europe with a total capacity of 437 MW. Spain is at the forefront with 2 PPAs amounting to 181.7 MW, followed by Poland (109 MW) and Italy (65.4 MW),” states Miguel Marroquín, Managing Director of Our New Energy.

The analyst highlights that, although only two solar deals were signed, both were the largest in terms of installed capacity, allowing this technology to reach 54% of total contracted capacity, more than double last month’s share of 25%.

The remaining contracts consisted of five wind projects and two hybrid projects, combining solar and wind facilities. This diversification reflects buyers’ interest in maintaining a supply portfolio that integrates various renewable technologies.

Another key point of the analysis is the growth in corporate PPAs, which in August accounted for 58% of the total signed volume, a sharp increase compared to 31% in July. “As for corporate PPAs, they represented 58% of the signed volume, a significant rise from the 31% recorded in July,” explains Marroquín.

Most of the capacity awarded in August went to large-scale energy companies. Notable offtakers included Hekla Energy, A2A Group, Galp and Flogas, which together signed contracts exceeding 200 MW. “The majority of capacity corresponds to energy companies such as Hekla Energy, A2A Group, Galp or Flogas, which together add more than 200 MW,” emphasises the executive.

Finally, ONE stresses that the trend in recent years confirms corporate players as the main drivers of the market, both in number of transactions and contracted capacity. August reinforces this dynamic with a clear strengthening of corporate demand and with Spain consolidating its role as a key reference within the European PPA landscape.
