EDP Renewables APAC, a subsidiary of EDP, a global energy company, today announced the signing of a 20-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with Amazon for its 44 megawatt-peak (MWp) ground-mounted utility-scale solar farm in Fukushima, Japan.
This solar farm, comprising approximately 63,000 solar panels, is expected to generate over 48 gigawatt-hours of clean energy annually, offsetting more than 20,500 metric tonnes of carbon emissions per year. Commercial operation of the project is anticipated to commence in the third quarter of 2025.
This marks the second PPA between EDP and Amazon in the Asia Pacific region. The first agreement was signed in 2021 in Singapore, demonstrating a strong and growing partnership between the two companies in supporting Amazon’s sustainability goals.
This project further strengthens EDP’s commitment to expanding its renewable energy portfolio in Japan and contributing to the country’s transition to a cleaner energy future.
