TotalEnergies and Airbus, a leading aircraft manufacturer, have signed two clean firm power contracts to supply 3.3 TWh to all major Airbus sites located in Germany and the United Kingdom.The electricity supplied to Airbus into the next decade will have a baseload profile and come from new renewable assets with a capacity of 200 MW. This supply will cover half of the electricity needs of the sites concerned, starting from 2027.

“Following last year’s announcement of our partnership in sustainable aviation fuel, we are pleased to sign these power purchase agreements with Airbus in Germany and the United Kingdom, two countries where TotalEnergies is growing quickly its production base and its sales,” said Stéphane Michel, President, Gas, Renewables & Power at TotalEnergies. “These new contracts illustrate TotalEnergies’ ability to deliver turnkey clean firm power solutions on multi-geographies to support our industrial customers in their energy transition. These contracts, which rely on our integrated power portfolio combining both renewable and flexible assets will contribute positively to the profitability of our electricity business”.

“As Airbus continues to make steady progress towards our energy efficiency and emissions reduction targets, these power purchase agreements (PPA) with TotalEnergies demonstrates our long-term commitment to decarbonising our sites”, said Florent Massou dit Labaquère, EVP of Operations for the Commercial Aircraft business of Airbus. “These agreements will help Airbus secure reliable low-carbon energy, supporting our goal to increase renewable electricity across our sites. Complementing our existing collaboration with TotalEnergies to scale SAF production capabilities, these PPAs are part of our holistic approach to build resilience in our operations.”
