Enlight to Supply Renewable Energy to Amdocs
June 05 2023 - 8:30AM
Enlight Renewable Energy (“Enlight”) (NASDAQ: ENLT), a leading
global renewable energy platform, has entered into a corporate
power purchase agreement (“PPA”) with Amdocs (NASDAQ: DOX), a
leading software and services provider to media and communication
companies. Under the agreement, Enlight will supply green energy to
Amdocs to power the software giant’s new office campus in Israel.
The PPA, which extends for 12 years, is expected
to account for 100% of the energy consumption at Amdocs’ new
innovative campus “Amdocs Park,” which spans dozens of acres. The
electricity, which will be sold at a competitive price, will be
sourced from Enlight’s solar and storage facilities currently under
construction in Israel (Solar + Storage Cluster 2). The agreement
marks the first corporate PPA Enlight has signed as part of the new
market regulation in Israel. The regulation constitutes a
revolution in the Israeli electricity market, and it enables green
power producers such as Enlight, and large electricity consumers
such as Amdocs, to enter into direct power purchase agreements. The
move to corporate PPAs is expected to accelerate the energy
transition across the Israeli economy.
The new agreement to acquire green power fits
into Amdocs’ long-term environmental strategy. In addition to being
powered solely by renewable sources, the new campus stands to
benefit from a LEED GOLD certification, minimizing energy and water
consumption and thereby reducing the environmental footprint
associated with the construction and operation of the campus.
Gilad Yavetz, Co-Founder and CEO of Enlight Renewable
Energy: “We have entered a new era in Israel of solar
generation, storage, and electricity supply through corporate PPAs
to large customers. This revolution has occurred thanks to the
de-regulation process of the Israeli Electricity Authority. The
process will enable Enlight to lower energy costs for customers,
who until now have relied on coal and gas generated electricity,
which was both polluting and more expensive. Moreover, the
de-regulation will significantly propel our customers towards their
net zero goals, while increasing Enlight’s return on its projects.
This is the first milestone in a series of similar PPAs which are
currently under negotiation.”
Chen Furman, Head of Global Services
Operations at Amdocs: “As part of Amdocs’ global strategy
for environmental protection and reducing the company’s carbon
footprint, we are excited about another significant step in Amdocs
Park’s transition to renewable energy. Amdocs Park is one of
the most innovative and advanced campuses in Israel and around the
world, and it is natural that the energy sources fed to the campus
will be from renewable energy sources. We are pleased to work with
Enlight and are proud to be a pioneer in the Israeli high-tech
sector to take this step.”
