To back the deal, Constellation has separately inked a long-term power purchase agreement (PPA) to get electricity from a 78-MW portion of the 1.3-GW Mammoth Solar project, developed by Doral Renewables LLC in Indiana. The complex is planned to become fully operational by end-2024.
PNC Bank aims at reaching 100% renewable purchased electricity by 2025 and cutting its carbon emissions and energy use 75% by 2035. According to the lender’s estimates, the agreement with Constellation will help it lower its carbon footprint by more than 55,000 metric tonnes annually.
