Netherlands-based international food retailer Ahold Delhaize announced today that it has signed a 10-year virtual Power Purchase Agreement (vPPA) with renewable energy producer Rezolv Energy, supporting the development of new large-scale solar and wind projects in Romania.

The two projects are expected to...
