Poland-based renewable energy developer R.Power has signed a long-term virtual power purchase agreement (PPA) with technology company Cisco covering 470 gigawatt hours (GWh) of solar generation in Poland, the companies said.
The agreement was facilitated by Sustainability Roundtable Inc.’s Net Zero Consortium for Buyers (NZCB) and will underpin the development of four new solar projects – Wydartowo, Bieżyce, Ostrzeniewo III and Nowy Zagór III – which are targeting commercial operations in 2027.
“This agreement showcases how corporate buyers can drive impact through diversified, high-quality clean-energy investments,” said Jim Boyle, chief executive of Sustainability Roundtable Inc., adding that Cisco’s participation highlights the growing role of multinational companies in accelerating regional renewable energy development.
Cisco said the deal supports both its climate goals and its operations in Poland.
“This agreement not only aligns with Cisco’s commitment to powering a more resilient energy future, but also directly supports operational needs, including the expansion of our lab facilities in Krakow,” said Evan Scott Brown, Cisco’s renewable energy and utilities manager.
R.Power chief commercial officer Rafał Hajduk said the partnership strengthens the company’s position in Central Europe.
“Cisco’s long-term commitment directly enables new solar capacity in Poland and supports the wider adoption of clean energy underway across the region,” Hajduk said.
