Meta signs huge solar deal to power its data centers across America
Meta partners with Invenergy to get green energy from four new solar projects in different US states. The deal helps Meta reach its clean-energy goals while managing growing data center power needs
Meta Platforms made a big-time move in clean energy market today signing contracts for solar power credits from four new projects
The tech-giant partnered with Chicago-based Invenergy to build solar farms in four states: Ohio Texas New Mexico and Arkansas. These eco-friendly installations will add up to 760 megawatts of power (enough to keep lights on in about 130‚000 homes)
The new deal fits into Metas larger green-energy plan — the company already works with solar providers geo-thermal tech and even looks into nuclear options for its power-hungry data-centers. All new solar sites should connect to power grid between now and 27
Our goal is supporting all operations with 100% clean energy
The agreement includes these key points:
- Four separate power contracts with Invenergy
- Solar farms in different climate zones
- Green energy credits instead of direct power use
- Total power equal to 130k homes needs
This multi-state project shows how big tech companies change their power use habits; Meta doesnt just buy electricity — it helps create new clean-energy sources across America
