Shell agrees deal to supply Amazon with renewable power
Shell Energy Europe BV (Shell) has signed an agreement with Amazon to provide renewable power from a subsidy-free offshore wind farm being constructed off the coast of The Netherlands.
The Amazon-Shell HKN Offshore Wind Project will enable Amazon to power more of its business with clean energy. It will move the company closer to its pledge to become net-zero carbon across its business by 2040 and continue its path to power its operations with 100% renewable energy by 2025 – five years ahead of its 2030 target. Shell’s ambition is to be a net-zero emissions energy business by 2050 or sooner, in step with society.1
The wind farm will be operated by The CrossWind consortium, a joint venture between Shell and Eneco. Starting in 2024, Amazon will offtake 250 megawatts (MW) from Shell and 130 MW from Eneco, for a total of 380 MW.
Shell and Amazon have already achieved milestones together. In July 2020, Amazon’s air cargo network secured up to six million gallons of sustainable aviation fuel supplied by Shell Aviation.
