Engelhart and e.optimum Strengthen Their Partnership With a Further Onshore Wind PPA, Supporting Germany’s Energy Transition
BERLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The Global Commodities and Renewable Energy Trader, Engelhart, is delighted to announce the signing of a further power purchase agreement (PPA) with e.optimum, one of Germany’s largest independent energy suppliers.
Following the first PPA signed in January 2025, this new agreement secures renewable electricity from additional onshore wind turbines with a total capacity of approximately 167 MW from July to December 2025. This is enough green power to supply around 31,000 households.
This second PPA marks a significant expansion of the partnership between the two companies. It represents a 195% increase in contracted capacity, bringing the total from 86 MW to 253 MW of onshore wind power. Furthermore, the agreement contributes directly to Germany’s transition to a net zero-carbon economy by 2045.
Matthias Seel, Senior Originator Corporate Customers Europe at Engelhart, commented:
“The second PPA with e.optimum is another milestone in our joint partnership. Especially in uncertain economic and energy policy times, this is a strong signal that both e.optimum and Engelhart are sticking to the clear goals of decarbonisation in Germany. Particular thanks go to all colleagues and business partners who made this deal possible.”
Sevastos Kavanozis, Head of Renewables Sales & Origination at Engelhart, added:
“Our deepening partnership with e.optimum shows that Engelhart is continuing to scale up its PPA business. With this second agreement, Engelhart is now delivering power from over 250 MW of onshore wind, which is a great result.”
Boris Käser, CEO at e.optimum, said:
“Our valuable partnership with Engelhart reaffirms our commitment to a sustainable future. We are pleased to take this further step in advancing the use of renewable energies in the economy and actively shaping the energy transition. Only through strong collaborations like this can we achieve the ambitious climate goals.”
