Under the agreements, Centrica Energy Trading will be responsible for balancing and nomination of the 126MW Isoneva and 126MW Murtoluuli wind farms located in Finland. Furthermore, Centrica will be responsible for balancing the 14.4MW Målajord wind farm located in Southern Sweden.

The additional 266.4MW added through these PPAs takes Taaleri Energia’s assets under management by Centrica Energy Trading in Finland, Sweden and Norway to 735MW, highlighting the strength of the strategic relationship between the two companies.

Cassim Mangerah, Managing Director of Centrica Energy Marketing and Trading said: "We're very excited to build on what I believe is already a strong cooperation with Taaleri Energia – by helping push the green transition forward through the development, management and optimisation of renewable energy assets. Our route-to-market business has seen strong growth in our Nordic portfolio over recent years, and the signing of these new deals further underlines our reputation as a leading player in European energy markets."
