Denmark-based Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) has signed a 15-year PPA with Google for its operations in the Netherlands. Under this deal, Google will source 250 MW of wind energy from the Zeevonk project. A joint venture between CIP and Vattenfall, Zeevonk includes a 2 GW offshore wind farm and a 50 MW fPV farm, located 62 km off the Dutch coast. The project is expected to be operational by 2029. Some of the generated power will be used to produce green hydrogen at an electrolyser plant in Rotterdam. CIP says that the agreement supports Google’s goal of achieving 24/7 carbon-free energy by 2030.
