Amazon and RWE have signed a power purchase agreement (PPA) for 110MW from the German company’s Nordseecluster B offshore wind farm.
The PPA builds on the strategic framework agreement signed between the two companies in June 2025, under which RWE supports Amazon’s carbon-free energy goals while Amazon Web Services provides cloud services, AI, and data analytics to advance RWE’s digital transformation.
The 110 MW capacity is expected to generate enough electricity to power the equivalent of more than 139,000 German households annually.
The Nordseecluster offshore wind farm is in the German North Sea, around 50 km north of the German island of Juist. The project is being developed in two phases. Nordseecluster A, with a total capacity of 660 MW, is currently under construction and scheduled for commissioning in early 2027.
The second phase, Nordseecluster B, will contribute an additional 900 MW with commercial operation scheduled for 2029. The wind farm is a joint project between RWE and Norges Bank Investment Management.
“Power purchase agreements like this one with Amazon are crucial for accelerating Germany’s decarbonisation while strengthening long‑term security of supply. By enabling large‑scale offshore projects such as the Nordseecluster, we can bring more reliable, carbon‑free electricity onto the grid and support a resilient energy system,” said Ulf Kerstin, CCO at RWE Supply & Trading.
The agreement with RWE supports Amazon’s goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions across its operations by 2040. In Germany, Amazon already has six onsite solar projects. The new PPA with RWE is Amazon’s fourth large-scale offshore wind PPA in Germany. Combined, these 10 projects have a capacity of more than 790 MW.
Once fully operational, they are expected to generate enough renewable energy to power the equivalent of more than 1m German homes annually.
Globally, Amazon has contracted more than 1GW of renewable capacity across multiple RWE projects. This PPA with RWE marks the first collaboration between the two companies outside the United States.
