local case study
United KingdomLocated in Inverclyde, south of Greenock and west of Port Glasgow, BayWa r.e. has reached a significant milestone for the UK renewable energy sector with the completion of Inverclyde Wind Farm.
Having started construction in May 2019 Inverclyde Wind Farm exported its first energy to the UK electricity market in November 2020.
Inverclyde Wind Farm also marks BayWa r.e.’s first subsidy-free corporate PPA (Power Purchase Agreement) for a wind farm in the UK. Tesco Stores Ltd signed a 15-year PPA as the offtaker – contributing to the retailer’s commitment to use 100 percent renewable electricity across the Tesco Group by 2030.
