American energy company AES Corporation announced this week that it has entered into a 20-year power purchase agreement with Microsoft to deliver renewable energy to its California data centers.
Microsoft will partially match its electricity demand at their California-based data centers under a “highly customized agreement,” according to AES. The electricity will be sourced by AES from a portfolio of 110 MWac solar and 55 MW storage projects in the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) region.
