AES and Meta Sign Long-Term PPAs to Deliver 650 MW of Solar Capacity in Texas and Kansas

  • On May 21, 2025, AES signed two long-term PPAs with Meta to provide 650 MW of solar power across Texas and Kansas for Meta's data centers.
  • These agreements align with Meta's plan to increase renewable energy use amid its expanding AI infrastructure and come as Texas emerges as a leading state in recent solar capacity additions.
  • AES will develop 400 MW in Texas and 250 MW in Kansas, leveraging the states' ample sunshine, fast permitting, and quick grid connections to deploy projects rapidly.
  • AES CEO Andrés Gluski stated solar offers "fast time-to-power" and "low-cost electricity," which helps AES maintain leadership supplying large hyperscalers like Meta with clean energy.
  • The projects will generate hundreds of construction jobs, contribute tax revenues, and strengthen AES's position as a top clean energy provider for corporate customers.
