Corporate PPAs: the expertise of Solvay Energy Services and Orygeen
Solvay Energy Services and its partner Orygeen assist companies committed to sustainable development in the implementation of a simple, effective and innovative solution: The Corporate Purchase Agreement (PPA)
Which structure of Corporate PPA?
The financial Corporate PPA: a simple and flexible implementation
Without modifying the existing structure of a company's energy supply, a financial Corporate PPA increases the share of renewable energy in its energy mix
For the company, the operation consists in committing with a renewable energy developer to the purchase of a given volume of electricity, at a predefined price (fixed, indexed, bounded, etc.) and over the long term (5 to 20 years). The produced renewable energy is monetized on the market by Solvay Energ: the company receives the proceeds from the sale along with the guarantees of origin associated to the electricity
This way the company is able to prove that part of its electricity consumption is from a renewable source.
The physical Corporate PPA: Optimal environmental integrity
In a physical Corporate PPA, the company consumes directly the electricity produced by the renewable energy source.
As in a financial PPA, the operation consists for the company in committing with a renewable energy developer to the purchase of a given volume of electricity, at a predefined price and over the long term (5 to 20 years). However, the negotiated volume of electricity is then directly delivered to the company, for its own consumption. For the latter, Solvay Energy Services manages intermittency linked to renewable energies by purchasing additional electricity on the market if necessary. This way, the volume of electricity delivered to the company matches permanently its consumption profile.
The company pays the volume of renewable electricity it has committed to buy to Solvay Energy Services, along with the additional electricity coming from the network. This way the company is able to prove that part of its electricity consumption is of renewable origin.
Our teams put at your disposal their solid knowledge of energy markets and project financing to assist you in your commitment to renewable energies.
A structured and complete methodology
Experts at Solvay Energy Services and its partner Orygeen have developed a structured and complete working methodology, which guarantees effective collaboration with the companies wishing to engage in a Corporate PPA.
Phase 1: Definition of the strategy and evaluation of market opportunities
Solvay Energy Services' experts define with you a strategy based on you consumption data (volume, profile) and your economic, strategic, environmental and risk management priorities.
Your strategy is compared to the possibilities offered by the market, that Solvay Energy Services' experts have compiled into a database referencing developers' projects independently. At this point, renewable energy production assets that match your strategy are pre-selected in preparation for a call for tender.
Phase 2: Call for tender and selection of developers
Complete specifications are developed with you, then submitted to pre-selected developers. The proposals received are compiled, analysed in detail and compared to the defined evaluation criteria. Competitive negotiations are then conducted with the selected developer(s) to refine the best solution for your company and achieve contractualization.
Phase 3: implementation of the solution
Once the PPA is signed, Solvay Energy Services' experts carry out all the activities necessary to meet the contractual requirements. They particularly handle the supervision of the relations with the developer(s) during the construction and commissioning phases of production assets, and elaborate a monitoring plan of operations (procedures and governance and operating policies, reporting, etc.)
Beyond this phase, Solvay Energy Services is able to provide the company with specific services planned by the implemented solutions.
- Managing the intermittency of renewable energy by supplying electricity (in the case of a physical PPA)
- Marketing of renewable electricity at a competitive price (in the case of a financial PPA)
- Monitoring the performance of the PPA contract and maximizing its value (optimization of planning and forecasting)
A consulting approach centered on the client and their project
Their approach, focused on expertise and consulting, consists in:
- Setting up a project team dedicated to reach your objectives, validated during the kick-off meeting;
- Managing the project planning;
- Maintaining a constant dialogue as the project progresses;
- Identifying problems and defining solutions;
- Supporting members of your internal project team to prepare information sessions for leadership and decision making.
Solvay Energy Services and Orygeen are not affiliated with any major energy group and lead their consulting missions for you independently.

1. Is there any way to have a colored background and still have onion skin in Pivot 2, besides using transparency?
2. I'm trying to make a font in pivot, but I can't make each letter the same size. Is there an easy way out of that, or do I have to just deal with it?

DescriptionPremise of the study: Hybridization has played an important role in the evolution and ecological adaptation of diploid and polyploid plants. Artemisia tridentata (Asteraceae) tetraploids are extremely widespread and of great ecological importance. These tetraploids are often taxonomically identified as A. tridentata subsp. wyomingensis or as autotetraploids of diploid subspecies tridentata and vaseyana. Few details are available as to how these tetraploids are formed or how they are related to diploid subspecies.

Two Greedy Italians Eat Italy
Nowhere is food as much a part of everyday life as Italy - a country whose unique topography has resulted in distinct regional differences that are vibrantly alive and passionately celebrated. Following the success of Two Greedy Italians, Antonio Carluccio and Gennaro Contaldo embark on a journey to explore Italy's distinct and varied terrains, and to find out how these have shaped the produce and, in turn, the peoples and their traditions. From snow-peaked mountains to lush plains, our two greedy Italians go in search of their homeland's varied culinary styles. They venture into the Alps for comfort food - those heart-warming dishes based around the use of butter, potatoes, polenta and rice. They head to the sea to uncover the many delicious fish and shellfish dishes emanating from this magnificent peninsula with its 1500 miles of coastline, as well as the distinctive cuisine of the Italian islands. Finally, they examine the rich agricultural plains through which flow some of the greatest rivers in Europe - in particular the Po in the north and the Tiber in the centre - revealing their historic influence on the foods grown and cooked within these regions. Containing over 80 mouth-watering recipes and breathtaking photography, Two Greedy Italians Eat Italy showcases the wisdom and passion of these two men for their native land, its people and produce. It is an essential book for anyone with an interest in this extraordinary country and its food.
