powerplantDESRI and Meta have signed 850 MW of solar and battery storage power purchase agreements (PPAs) in US. The agreement includes 500 MW in Oklahoma, 200 MW in Texas and 150 MW in Mississippi. With these agreements, the total contracted solar and battery storage capacity between the companies has increased to approximately 2,575 MW in US.
Previously contracted projects between the companies include 150 MW in Texas, 300 MW in Utah and 100 MW in New Mexico. DESRI expects roughly 1,110 MW of these contracted renewable energy projects to begin construction in 2026. Each project is expected to generate hundreds of construction-related jobs while supporting local economic development over the course of its operational lifespan.
In January 2026, Meta and Origis Energy entered into a long-term power purchase agreement for the Greyhound A solar project located in West Odessa, Texas. The project has a capacity of 303 MWdc, equivalent to 240 MWac, and is scheduled to reach commercial operations by mid-2026. Greyhound A forms part of a 1 GW broader energy infrastructure complex with a fully subscribed solar portfolio being developed by Origis Energy in west Texas.
