Encavis and Allego enlarge their 10-year PPA in Germany to supply Electric Vehicle drivers with 100% Renewable Energy

Hamburg, 8 August 2023 – Hamburg-based wind and solar park operator Encavis AG, listed on the MDAX of Deutsche Börse AG (Prime Standard; ISIN: DE0006095003; ticker symbol: ECV), and Allego (NYSE: ALLG), a leading pan-European electric vehicle ultra-fast charging network, enlarge their 10-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). With 100% Renewable Energy from Encavis’ solar parks in Groß Behnitz (25 MW/Brandenburg) and now also in Borrentin (105 MW/Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania), making it Allego’s most extensive clean energy agreement to date. The new solar park in Borrentin will be Encavis‘ largest PV park in Germany. The two solar parks will supply Allego’s charging network with more than 100 GWh of Renewable Electricity and the associated certificates of origin. Both parks together will enable more than 1.75 million Electric Vehicle (EV) charging sessions based on an assumed average battery size of 60 kWh per EV.

"In order to successfully shape the energy transition, it is essential to work with companies that have serious commitments to Renewable Energy, like Allego. We are proud at Encavis to contribute to sector coupling in Germany with this PPA by now also being able to supply large amounts of EV with our solar power", welcomes Mario Schirru, CIO/COO of Encavis AG, this pilot agreement.

The expansion of e-mobility and the associated charging infrastructure will lead to a significant increase in electricity demand for road transportation in the coming years. This PPA represents Encavis' and Allego’s shared commitment to sustainable innovation and accelerating the electrification of transportation in Germany. Encavis gains another major industrial offtaker and is also becoming more involved in the field of sector coupling. Sector coupling is achieved through the increased use of Renewable Energy (instead of fossil fuels) in the transportation, heating, and industrial sectors, and is key to achieving national and global climate protection targets.
