Danish energy trading firm Danske Commodities has entered into a power purchase agreement (PPA) with e.optimum, Germany’s largest independent energy purchasing group, to deliver approximately 180 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of wind energy over an 18-month period.
The agreement, which runs from July 2025 to December 2026, is expected to supply renewable electricity to around 48,000 German households. It marks the first wind PPA between the two companies and builds on a trading relationship established earlier this year.
Danske Commodities will supply the electricity from its wind portfolio in Germany under a pay-as-forecasted model. The deal aligns with the company’s broader strategy to support the energy transition in Europe’s largest economy.
“Germany is not only a core trading market for us, but also location of the majority of the renewables assets we have under management,” said Sofie Duedahl, head of European origination at Danske Commodities.
Boris Käser, chairman of the executive board at e.optimum, said the partnership supports the company’s sustainability goals. “The collaboration with Danske Commodities marks a significant step in our mission to transform the German energy market into a more sustainable one,” he said. “We are proud to be working with such a respected partner to secure reliable and cost-efficient energy for our customers.
Danske Commodities has been active in the German market since 2004. The company currently manages more than 6 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy capacity in Germany and over 15 GW across Europe.
