TotalEnergies has signed two long-term power purchase agreements to supply 1 gigawatt (GW) of solar capacity to Google’s data centres in Texas, delivering an estimated 28 terawatt-hours (TWh) of renewable electricity over 15 years.
The electricity will be generated from two TotalEnergies-owned solar projects currently under development in Texas: the 805 megawatt-peak (MWp) Wichita project and the 195 MWp Mustang Creek site. Construction of both projects is scheduled to begin in the second quarter of 2026.
The agreements represent the largest volume of renewable power purchase agreements ever signed by TotalEnergies in the United States. They also complement separate gross PPAs totalling 1.2 GW recently secured by Clearway, a California-based renewables company that is 50% owned by TotalEnergies, to support Google’s data centres across the ERCOT, PJM and SPP power markets.
TotalEnergies said the Wichita and Mustang Creek projects are expected to deliver economic benefits to local communities, including the creation of several hundred construction jobs and the generation of long-term tax revenues to support public services.
Marc-Antoine Pignon, vice president of renewables US at TotalEnergies, said the agreements demonstrate the company’s strategy to provide tailored renewable energy solutions for digital infrastructure, particularly data centres. He added that the projects would help address constraints around land availability and power supply by enabling large-scale co-location opportunities.
Will Conkling, Google’s director of clean energy and power, said the partnership would add new generation capacity to the local grid, supporting a more stable, affordable and reliable electricity system as the company expands its infrastructure.
TotalEnergies currently has a gross renewable capacity portfolio of around 10 GW in operation in the United States, spanning onshore solar, wind and battery storage assets. This includes approximately 5 GW in the ERCOT market in Texas and 400 MW in the PJM market in the north-eastern US.
