Better Energy has successfully connected its 24MW Studsvik solar park in Sweden to the grid. The facility will provide renewable energy through Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) with Vestre, Scan Global Logistics, and Nolato for the next decade.
Bjorn Fjellstad, CEO of Vestre, emphasized the company's commitment to clean energy: “At Vestre, we're committed to supporting the shift to clean energy. By agreeing to buy power from this renewable energy project, we're helping to increase the amount of green energy available. Our goal is to be a net producer of energy by 2030, through our own energy production and purchasing agreements with projects that create additional renewable energy.”
Martin Andersen, Global Head of Sustainability & ESG at Scan Global Logistics, noted the importance of the partnership: “This is now the second Better Energy solar park from which we're offtaking renewable energy, and we're pleased to extend our partnership. The green electricity we procure from this park helps us become a more sustainable company and gives us greater insights into our electricity costs.”
Nolato CEO Christer Wahlquist shared a similar sentiment: “This is the right choice for our business and the environment. We've always believed that to move away from fossil-based energy sources and mitigate climate change, the Swedish energy sector must work together.”
Andreas Brännström, Managing Director of Better Energy Sweden, concluded, “Our collaboration with our PPA partners, Studsvik, Senergia, and Vattenfall, shows that we can power the Swedish energy transition together.”
