Greek industrial and energy company METLEN has signed a 10-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with ENGIE, one of the world’s leading utilities in the energy transition. Under the deal, METLEN will supply ENGIE with clean electricity generated from six solar sites across the United Kingdom.
The solar portfolio covered by the agreement has a total capacity of 235 megawatts (MW) and will provide more than 233 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of renewable electricity each year. According to the company, this output will help avoid over 52,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually, making a significant contribution to the UK’s efforts to achieve its net-zero targets.
All six projects are being developed and executed by METLEN’s M Renewables division, which has become one of the leading contractors for solar and energy storage projects in the UK. Most of the sites are expected to be fully operational by the end of 2025, with two additional installations slated for completion in 2026.
The PPA further strengthens METLEN’s growing portfolio of renewable offtake agreements across Europe and deepens its partnership with ENGIE. The companies aim to deliver flexible, reliable and low-carbon energy solutions to support the global transition to cleaner power systems.
ENGIE, which serves over 200,000 clients worldwide, is one of the largest providers of renewable PPAs globally. The French multinational is known for its deep expertise and integrated energy portfolio, which have made it a preferred partner for corporations and institutions seeking to decarbonize their operations.
In the UK, METLEN already has 90 renewable energy projects completed or under development, including solar parks and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
Headquartered in Greece, METLEN is a global industrial and energy group with leading positions in the metals and energy sectors, focused on sustainable growth and the circular economy.
