7C Solarparken AG: secures the electricity price for 100 MWp for Q2'26 and Q3'26

Bayreuth (pta013/06.03.2026/10:59 UTC+1)

7C Solarparken announces that the Group has concluded a contract for the second and third quarters of 2026 (Q2/26 and Q3/26) that fixes the electricity price of the German "Direktvermarktung" (direct marketing) contract for a portfolio totaling 100 MWp. The transaction serves to hedge the market prices for 15 existing photovoltaic plants operated under the direct marketing scheme.

By concluding this agreement, 7C Solarparken will receive a fixed price of EUR 40/MWh on average for Q2 and Q3 2026 instead of the pv market price ("Marktwert Solar") for the plants concerned. Overall, the realized electricity price for these plants could once again exceed the EUR 50/MWh mark on an annual basis, subject to normal market value solar price developments in the remaining quarters.

In addition, the contract determines the amount of electricity remunerated based on an index, so that not only actual production but also curtailment volumes that may arise as a result of negative electricity prices and Re-dispatch measures by the grid operator are remunerated under the contract. This enables 7C Solarparken to reduce the volatility of the portfolio's earnings and improve the predictability of sales in a market environment that continues to be characterized by high price volatility and increasing intervention in the production of solar plants.

As this is a hedge for market value solar, the contract does not change the entitlement to receive the market premium paid by the grid operator under the respective remuneration mechanism.

Steven De Proost, CEO of 7C Solarparken: 'With this agreement, we are securing a meaningful portion of our revenues for Q2 and Q3 2026 while simultaneously reducing risks from curtailment and re-dispatch. We have benefited from the current elevated energy price levels, which have been influenced by geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and short-term movements in the base load futures market, among other factors. We continue to monitor the situation very closely.'
