Spanish renewable power retailer and project developer Capital Energy said that it has signed an agreement to supply renewable energy to professional football club Atletico de Madrid.

Under the agreement, Capital Energy will supply 9.5 GWh of renewable power per year during the next three seasons.

The contracted volume will be consumed by Atletico’s home stadium Wanda Metropolitano, the training facilities in Majadahonda and Alcala de Henares, the club’s foundation and official stores in the Madrid region, Capital Energy said.
