Context: page_content='ARTICLE\nVPPAs: Understanding Dodd-Frank Requirements\nMay 19, 2016 Steve Mickelsen\nVirtual Power Purchase Agreements (VPPAs) are a relatively new way to buy renewable energy, providing companies with a financial hedge against future energy prices and a new mechanism for meeting their\ncorporate environmental goals. But these contracts are also complex and it is important to understand how they work.\nWith a VPPA, an organization buys two things: a hedge against potentially rising electricity prices, and the environmental benefits associated with that electricity. Under a VPPA, the buyer does not take physical\ndelivery of the electricity (hence the word “virtual” in its title). This is attractive to buyers because it allows them the benefits of a standard PPA agreement without being required to schedule for, accept delivery,\nand redeliver the underlying electricity.' metadata={'source': '/Users/kladar/Library/CloudStorage/OneDrive-verse.inc/Data/data-lake/landing/document/context-corpus-20230728/3Degrees/VPPAs_ Understanding Dodd-Frank Implications _ 3Degrees.pdf', 'file_path': '/Users/kladar/Library/CloudStorage/OneDrive-verse.inc/Data/data-lake/landing/document/context-corpus-20230728/3Degrees/VPPAs_ Understanding Dodd-Frank Implications _ 3Degrees.pdf', 'page': 0, 'total_pages': 3, 'format': 'PDF 1.4', 'title': '', 'author': '', 'subject': '', 'keywords': '', 'creator': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/115.0.0.0 Safari/537.36', 'producer': 'Skia/PDF m115', 'creationDate': "D:20230727210643+00'00'", 'modDate': "D:20230727210643+00'00'", 'trapped': ''} Source: /Users/kladar/Library/CloudStorage/OneDrive-verse.inc/Data/data-lake/landing/document/context-corpus-20230728/3Degrees/VPPAs_ Understanding Dodd-Frank Implications _ 3Degrees.pdf

A renewable electricity generator and a buyer agree to a fixed price for the electricity purchased.

The European Green Deal is a commitment from the European Commission for the EU bloc to be climate neutral by 2050.
