Overview
EHA Energie-Handels-Gesellschaft mbH & Co. KG, commonly known as EHA, is a German energy service provider headquartered in Hamburg. Founded in 1998 as a joint venture with the former Hamburgische Electricitäts-Werke AG (HEW), it was created to centralize the energy procurement of the REWE Group retail conglomerate. Since the end of 2013, EHA has been a wholly owned subsidiary of REWE Group. The company acts as an energy service provider for both its parent group and external clients, including dm-drogerie markt, Landgard, Das Futterhaus, Deutsche See, Intersport, Sparda-Bank Hamburg, and bakery groups Allwörden and Nur Hier. EHA's core business areas are energy procurement and supply, power purchase agreements (PPAs), metering point operation and digital services, and energy management and efficiency. It organizes risk-diversified procurement of green electricity and natural gas, passing through prices to customers without a markup. Electricity volumes are primarily structured long-term via the futures market. To manage the consumption-intensive food retail sector (e.g., refrigeration and air conditioning), EHA uses its own network of regional temperature measurement points and meteorological forecasts. The company also provides PPA structuring services, with a focus on offshore wind PPAs, and operates smart metering systems nationwide in cooperation with around 800 medium-voltage grid operators. Additionally, EHA offers continuous energy controlling and consulting on technical concepts to increase energy efficiency. With approximately 100 highly qualified employees, EHA emphasizes tailored solutions for multi-site companies facing complex energy requirements. The company has been expanding its portfolio in green electricity supply and metering services. In 2016, it built its first own photovoltaic system, and since 2021 it has participated in the offshore wind farm Borkum Riffgrund 3 through a long-term power purchase agreement. In 2022, EHA began offering PPA structuring as a service for third-party customers, and in 2023 it launched a photovoltaic expansion on REWE Group properties. EHA also owns EHA Austria Energie-Handelsgesellschaft mbH in Wiener Neudorf, Austria.
