United States: TotalEnergies to Power Google's Texas Data Centers for 15 Years
TotalEnergies has signed two new long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) to supply 1 GW of solar capacity—equivalent to 28 TWh of renewable electricity over 15 years—to Google's data centers located in Texas.
This electricity will come from two solar farms owned by TotalEnergies and currently under development in the state: Wichita (805 MWc) and Mustang Creek (195 MWc), with construction expected to begin in the second half of 2026.
These PPAs, with a total capacity of 1 GW, are in addition to the 1.2 GW recently contracted by Clearway, a California-based renewable energy developer 50% owned by TotalEnergies, to supply Google's data centers in the regional electricity markets of ERCOT (Texas), PJM (Northeast), and SPP (Central US).
The Wichita and Mustang Creek solar farms will generate significant benefits for local communities. Several hundred jobs will be created during construction, and substantial tax revenues will help fund public services throughout the lifespan of the projects.
TotalEnergies has a portfolio of 10 GW of gross capacity in onshore solar, wind, and battery storage assets operating in the United States, including 400 MW in the PJM market in the Northeast and 5 GW in the ERCOT market in Texas.
