Social media company Meta will add another solar farm to support its upcoming data center in Temple, Texas.
The solar farm, True North, is a 238 MWac (321 MWdc) solar farm under construction near Waco, Texas. It will supply the data center with 100% renewable energy.
Avangrid, Inc., a sustainable energy company and member of the Iberdrola Group, announced that it received its final shipment of solar panels to the True North project site in Falls County, Texas.
“We are thrilled to have reached another major construction milestone at True North, which is set to become Avangrid’s largest solar facility and our first in Texas,” said Pedro Azagra, Avangrid CEO, in a statement. “It’s no secret that the solar industry has dealt with challenges in securing solar panels to build these important renewable power facilities. With this final shipment of solar panels in hand, we are moving full speed ahead with construction and I look forward to seeing True North energized as we accelerate a clean energy transition.”
