en.Wedoany.com Reported - German energy company RWE has signed a long-term corporate power purchase agreement with Meta, with electricity sourced from the Rabbit’s Foot solar project in northeastern Texas, USA. Located in Bowie County, Texas, this U.S. solar project has an AC capacity of 298 megawatts. Site construction began earlier this year, and the project is expected to enter commercial operation by the end of 2027.

The Rabbit’s Foot solar project marks the fourth power purchase agreement signed between RWE and Meta since 2024. Previously, the two parties had reached agreements on the 274 MW Emily solar project in Illinois, the 100 MW Lafitte solar project in Louisiana, and the 200 MW Waterloo solar facility in Texas. With the execution of this 298 MW power purchase agreement, the total scale of projects collaborated on by both parties over the past two years has reached 872 MW.

RWE stated that this U.S. solar project is expected to create nearly 200 local construction jobs during the construction phase and generate over $50 million in long-term tax revenue for Bowie County, DeKalb Independent School District, Texarkana College, and emergency service areas over 40 years. Once completed, the electricity generated by the Rabbit’s Foot solar project will be used to support Meta’s operational electricity needs through renewable energy matching, while also adding a large-scale solar photovoltaic power generation resource to the Texas power grid.
