Meta Platforms and renewable energy developer Invenergy have signed four new agreements to supply an additional 791 megawatts of wind and solar power for Meta’s growing network of data centers, the companies announced on Thursday.
The new agreements are the latest in Meta’s ongoing strategy to meet the soaring electricity demand of its artificial intelligence infrastructure with clean energy. Meta has been ramping up its renewable energy procurement efforts as part of its sustainability goals and broader environmental, social, and governance (ESG) commitments.
With these latest deals, Meta and the Chicago-based Invenergy have now partnered on projects totaling 1,800 MW of clean energy capacity. Just last year, the two companies signed contracts for 760 MW of solar energy, marking a steadily growing collaboration in the renewable sector.
The newly contracted energy will come from wind and solar projects located in Ohio, Arkansas, and Texas, Invenergy said. Although the power generated will be delivered to the local electricity grids, Meta will receive the clean energy credits associated with the projects—credits that help the tech company offset its carbon footprint and reach its renewable energy targets.
Financial terms of the agreements were not disclosed.
In recent years, Meta has also signed renewable energy deals with large-scale solar farms and partnered with emerging geothermal energy providers. The company is reportedly exploring opportunities in nuclear power as well, seeking proposals from developers of next-generation nuclear technology.
The expansion of Meta’s clean energy portfolio underscores the rising pressure on major tech firms to decarbonize their operations, especially as AI technologies drive higher energy consumption.
The company’s latest agreements reflect a growing trend among corporations to secure long-term, sustainable energy solutions in line with global climate goals.
