Meta Adds Solar In Texas

Meta announced the signing of an environmental attribute purchase agreement (EAPA) for the full capacity of Angelo Solar in Tom Green County, Texas. The 195 MW project will help Meta support its regional operations with 100% renewable energy.

The environmental attribute purchase agreement (EAPA) was signed with Apex Clean Energy. Angelo is expected to begin commercial operations in early 2024.

“We appreciate Apex’s partnership in helping us bring a total of one gigawatt of new renewable energy to the grid across Texas, Virginia, Illinois, Kansas, and Iowa,” said Urvi Parekh, head of renewable energy at Meta in a statement. “This new solar project will support our commitment to 100% renewable energy and will help bring jobs and investment to the local community.”

The agreement follows other previously announced transactions between Apex and Meta: an 80 MW EAPA with Altavista Solar; 200 MW with Aviator Wind East, part of the largest single-phase, single-site wind project in the United States; 175 MW with Lincoln Land Wind; 197 MW with Jayhawk Wind; and, most recently, 225 MW with Great Pathfinder Wind.
