Fastned, the European fast charging company, concluded its first multi-year corporate PPA in the Netherlands with GLP, a leading global business builder, owner and operator of logistics real estate.
Fastned will purchase power generated by the solar panels on the roof of GLP’s distribution center in Zevenaar, Netherlands, for a fixed price. The solar park is one of the largest in Europe, an equivalent size to 16 football fields. It supplies 15 GWh of electricity annually to Fastned, which is used to charge electric vehicles at fast charging stations. The agreement supports Fastned’s policy to have stable pricing.

“For Fastned, it is important that we can provide our customers with sufficient sustainably generated power at a stable price today and in the future. As the number of electric vehicles on the road grows, so does the demand for fast charging. This agreement helps to bring supply and demand together. This long-term agreement assures the solar park developer of the purchase of all generated power. This, in turn, enables them to develop new sustainable energy projects. This partnership contributes to a more sustainable future and helps us accelerate the transition to electric driving.”
