Canadian power producer TransAlta Corp announced on Tuesday that it has signed a long-term renewable energy purchase deal with Meta, formerly known as Facebook, for the offtake of wind energy.
Under the contract, Meta will obtain both renewable electricity and environmental attributes generated by TransAlta’s 200 MW Horizon Hill Wind Power Project which will be built in Logan County, Oklahoma.
“Since 2020, Meta has relied solely on wind and solar energy to power its global operations,” explained Urvi Parekh, Meta's head of renewable energy. “As our footprint expands, it's critical that we find strong partners that can help us continue to achieve that goal by bringing new renewable energy to the grid.”
