The partnership with AES includes 400 megawatts in Texas and 250 megawatts in Kansas. This marks Meta's fourth solar deal in 2023, underscoring its commitment to renewable energy. Texas's favorable conditions for solar development, combined with the fast track for permitting and low costs, have made it an attractive region for power generation.
This is the fourth solar deal that Meta has announced this year, all in Texas, highlighting its commitment to renewable energy for its expanding data centers.
AES CEO Andrés Gluski emphasized that solar's 'fast time-to-power and low-cost electricity' have been key factors attracting companies like Meta.
