What happens after the end of the feed-in tariff?

How to secure your income with a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)

With the expiry of the EEG subsidy, many operators of wind and solar installations are facing the challenge of continuing to operate their plants economically. However, the end of the feed-in tariff does not necessarily mean the end of your income.

With a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) BayWa r.e. is offering you a long-term and profitable solution to continue operating your installations successfully even without government subsidies.

Benefits after the period of guaranteed feed-in remuneration has ended

A Power Purchase Agreement offers you numerous advantages for operating your wind or solar installation economically even after the end of the feed-in tariff:

Benefit from green electricity guarantees of origin

In addition to the income from the electricity, you can obtain guarantees of origin from the Federal Environment Agency for the wind or solar power generated and market these. This enables you to generate additional income and increase the added value of your installation’s electricity and sell it. This enables you to generate additional income and increase the added value of your installation’s electricity and sell it.

Marketing of electricity from sewage and mine gas without EEG subsidies

Once the subsidised EEG direct marketing has lapsed, a waste disposal order will remain in force for landfill, mine and sewage gas, since these gases may not be released untreated into the environment. To ensure the economic viability of their electricity generation, plant operators must seek new marketing opportunities for continued operation. Power purchase agreements (PPAs), i.e. multi-year marketing contracts, are a suitable option for plants that are no longer subsidised.
