X-ELIO, a global leader in the renewable energy sector, has signed a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Google for 128MW of sustainable electricity from X-ELIO’s Bell Solar PV Plant located in Texas, US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The solar farm is expected to start operations in the second half of 2025, with a total capacity of 128MW, which will be used by Google to support its operations in Texas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The agreement will consist of a physical PPA, in which X-ELIO, through a shared network, will enable the direct delivery of power to Google.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Bell PV Plant will also include a 100MW battery energy storage system to provide energy demand support on a 24\/7 basis. In addition, X-ELIO is already in conversations with the community near the project to develop social actions as part of the company’s community plan policy in the regions where it operates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
X-ELIO has strengthened its presence in the US as a leading company in the renewable energy sector. This PPA with Google demonstrates X-ELIO’s commitment to advancing the decarbonisation of the global economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kerri Neary, Country Manager of X-ELIO US, said: “This agreement is a milestone in X-ELIO’s strategy to develop and provide renewable energy for business supply. With more than 5GW of pipeline, including 1GW expected to reach NTP by the end of 2024, the US is solidifying its position as one of X-ELIO’s key markets.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mirko Molinari, CCO of X-ELIO, said: “The PPA between Google and X-ELIO exemplifies our commitment to embracing the sustainability needs of the organisations we support. We are honoured to collaborate with world-class partners such as Google and to join our paths to create a greener and more sustainable future”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Amanda Peterson Corio, Global Head of Data Center Energy at Google, said: “Google is committed to powering our data centres, cloud regions and offices around the world with 24\/7 carbon-free energy by 2030. We are excited to take part in this new agreement with X-ELIO that will expand our carbon-free energy portfolio and supply our operations in Texas with clean power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis agreement is a strong example of how executing PPAs more efficiently through our\u00a0new scalable procurement approach\u00a0evolves the way the industry sells and purchases power, and accelerates the buildout of carbon-free electricity,\u201d added Corio.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
