Pinergy signs its largest power purchase agreement to date with JLL.
Real estate business JLL is to power its extensive portfolio via renewable energy after striking a major deal with Pinergy.
As part of Pinergy’s Guarantee of Origin offering, 100% of JLL’s energy demand in Ireland that is sourced from Pinergy will be met by renewable electricity from wind farms across the country.
“To date we have secured corporate power purchase agreements for more than 150gWh of annual Irish wind generation”
These wind farms include Lahanaght Wind Farm in Co Cork, and Beallough Wind Farm, Co Waterford.
Sparking genius
“Pinergy’s ‘Guarantee of Origin’ offering perfectly aligns with JLL’s Global ESG and Sustainability mandate, as well as the requirements of our clients and occupiers who seek green, renewable energy solutions,” said Eric Williams, sustainability manager of Property Management at JLL.”
By availing of Pinergy’s Guarantee of Origin offering over 285 commercial supply points within JLL’s managed property portfolio are now powered entirely by guaranteed renewable green energy.
This deal represents Pinergy’s largest corporate power purchase agreement to date providing 22gWh sourced from the two Irish wind farms.
JLL’s transition to green, renewable energy usage is projected to result in carbon emission reductions equivalent to offsetting the emissions from approximately 4,400 round-trip flights between Dublin and New York.
Pinergy’s Guarantee of Origin offering supports companies as they look to reduce their carbon footprint ensuring they now have a traceable energy system in place for their portfolio from a chosen renewable facility in Ireland.
“To date we have secured corporate power purchase agreements for more than 150gWh of annual Irish wind generation under our Guarantee of Origin offering and we expect to see demand for this offering grow substantially in the coming years,” said Enda Gunnell, CEO of Pinergy.
