en.Wedoany.com Reported - RWE and Meta have signed a long-term corporate power purchase agreement (PPA) for the 298MWac Rabbit's Foot solar project located in northeastern Texas, USA.

The project, situated in Bowie County, is currently under construction and is expected to commence commercial operations by the end of 2027. Under the agreement, Meta will leverage this project to support its goal of operating on 100% clean energy.

This marks the fourth PPA signed between the two companies since 2024. Previously, they had reached agreements on the Emily solar project in Illinois, the Lafitte solar project in Louisiana, and the Waterloo solar facility in Texas, with a combined capacity of 574MW. Including the Rabbit's Foot solar project, the total capacity under agreements signed by the two companies over the past two years has reached 872MW.

Ingmar Ritzenhofen, Chief Commercial Officer of RWE Americas, stated that the partnership with Meta continues to grow, jointly providing reliable power to support its energy commitments. The agreement for the Rabbit's Foot solar project demonstrates how collaboration can drive meaningful economic growth and community benefits.

Amanda Yang, Meta's Head of Clean and Renewable Energy, said that through ongoing collaboration, the Rabbit's Foot solar project will bring new generation capacity to the Texas grid while creating local jobs and delivering lasting economic benefits to Bowie County. The project is expected to create nearly 200 construction jobs and generate $50 million in tax revenue over 40 years.
