• Both wholesale trading and hybrid PPA add value to the grid connection
• Cases 2 and 3 have similar results due to wind conditions and wake
effects. There are about 600 hours (7%) per year where the output is
limited.
• Hybrid PPA can help to reduce revenue uncertainty and improve
bankability
• Hybrid PPA could provide valuable routes to market for co-location in
the future
