BAKU, Azerbaijan, Feb.9. TotalEnergies has
signed two long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) to deliver 1
gigawatt of solar capacity, or roughly 28 terawatt-hours of
renewable electricity over 15 years, to supply Google’s data
centers in Texas, Trend reports via the company.
The power will be generated from TotalEnergies-owned projects
under development in Wichita (805 MW) and Mustang Creek (195 MW),
with construction expected to start in the second quarter of 2026,
the company said.
The agreements complement 1.2 GW of gross PPAs recently secured
by Clearway, a California-based renewables company 50% owned by
TotalEnergies, to supply Google’s data centers across the ERCOT,
PJM and SPP markets.
TotalEnergies said the projects would create several hundred
construction jobs and generate tax revenues to support local public
services.
The company has a U.S. portfolio of 10 GW of operational onshore
solar, wind and battery storage assets, including 5 GW in Texas and
400 MW in the PJM market in the Northeast. Its power supply
agreements with Google add to deals already signed with Airbus,
SWM, Data4, STMicroelectronics, Saint-Gobain, Air Liquide, Amazon,
LyondellBasell, Merck, Microsoft, Orange and Sasol.
TotalEnergies said it aims to reach more than 100 TWh of net
electricity production by 2030, building a portfolio that combines
renewables and flexible assets such as storage and gas-fired
generation.
TotalEnergies is a global integrated energy company active in
about 120 countries, producing and marketing oil, natural gas,
biofuels, hydrogen, renewables and electricity.
