Independent Power Producers (IPP)

Independent Power Producers (IPPs) are private companies that generate electricity independently of government or publicly owned utilities. They build and operate power plants—using various energy sources like natural gas, wind, or solar—and sell the electricity they produce to the national or regional grid. IPPs help increase the capacity and diversity of a country's energy supply, often bringing innovation and competition. They operate under regulated agreements, ensuring they provide reliable power and meet safety standards, contributing to a more resilient and efficient electricity system.
