TotalEnergies and Google have signed a 15-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) to supply Google with a total volume of 1.5 TWh of certified renewable electricity from TotalEnergies’ Montpelier solar farm in Ohio. The solar facility, nearing completion, is connected to the PJM grid system - the largest in the United States - and will support Google’s data center operations in Ohio.
A shared vision for powering data centers
The deal reflects Google’s strategy of enabling new, carbon-free energy to the grid systems where they operate. It also aligns with TotalEnergies’ strategy to deliver tailored energy solutions for data centers, which accounted for almost 3% of the world’s energy demand in 2024.
Strengthening the grid by deploying more reliable and clean energy is crucial for supporting the digital infrastructure that businesses and individuals depend on
said Will Conkling, Director of Clean Energy and Power, Google. Our collaboration with TotalEnergies will help power our data centers and the broader economic growth of Ohio.

This agreement illustrates TotalEnergies’s ability to meet the growing energy demands of major tech companies by leveraging its integrated portfolio of renewable and flexible assets.
