Amazon has signed a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Skyborn Renewables for 600MW of capacity from the Gennaker offshore wind farm in the German Baltic Sea.

The PPA is the largest ever in the German market, and is tied to the 976.5MW Gennaker offshore wind farm. Power delivery is expected to commence at the end of 2028, upon the wind farms' commissioning.
According to Skyborn, the PPA will enable it to advance the construction of the wind farm, which is expected to comprise 63 15MW turbines. The project secured a construction permit in late 2025, and construction is expected to commence in the summer of 2026. The project is expected to cost around €3 billion ($3.43bn) to construct.
“By signing our largest power purchase agreement in Germany, we're giving Skyborn the certainty to move forward with Gennaker, bringing nearly 1GW of new offshore wind capacity onto the grid, strengthening Germany's energy security, and supporting jobs and investment in the region,” said Rocco Bräuniger, country manager of Amazon Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
