Roca Brazil Signs PPA for 100% Renewable Power

• Roca’s Brazil unit signs a full renewable electricity PPA with Casa dos Ventos, matching power needs to clean generation and boosting sustainability while cutting reliance on conventional energy.

Roca’s Brazilian unit has signed a renewable power purchase agreement with renewables developer Casa dos Ventos to cover all electricity needs for the company’s operations in Brazil. The deal is designed to ensure the subsidiary’s power supply is fully matched with renewable generation.

Financial terms were not disclosed in the report. Roca, the Spanish bathroom hardware supplier, said the PPA will support its efforts to expand the use of renewable energy across its footprint in South America and reduce reliance on conventional power sources.

What’s the impact of Roca’s renewable PPA with Casa dos Ventos in Brazil?

• Secures long-term, contracted access to renewable electricity for Roca’s Brazilian manufacturing and office operations, reducing exposure to short-term swings in power prices and grid supply constraints.
  
• Improves “hour-by-hour” matching between electricity consumption and renewable generation, helping strengthen the credibility of renewable energy claims tied to operational electricity use.
  
• Cuts direct greenhouse-gas emissions associated with purchased electricity by displacing fossil-based grid power, supporting Roca’s decarbonization pathway and reporting goals.
  
• Lowers reliance on conventional electricity supply and can reduce the company’s vulnerability to changes in the emissions intensity of the grid over time.
  
• Provides a practical route to scale renewable procurement beyond office/retail-level initiatives, supporting emissions reductions across energy-intensive production activities.
  
• Reinforces Roca’s broader strategy to increase renewable energy use across its South American footprint by demonstrating bankable corporate procurement experience in Brazil.
  
• Supports risk management for energy procurement by locking in renewable supply under a structured contract framework, even when market conditions change.
• Encourages supply-chain and sector momentum by signaling corporate demand for renewables, which can help developers and financiers plan and invest in additional renewable capacity.
• Can enhance stakeholder confidence with customers, regulators, and investors seeking credible renewable sourcing and transparent decarbonization measures.
