The Skull Creek Solar Plant supports Meta’s efforts to add new generation to the grid and to continue matching their operations with 100 percent clean and renewable energy. The two company’s now have PPAs for approximately 1.2 GWdc of solar capacity across seven US projects, all of which are scheduled to be operational by 2028. Two of the projects entered construction late last year, with the remainder due to go into construction in 2026.
The announcement comes shortly after Zelestra also announced full commercial operations at the 81 MWdc Jasper County Solar Project in Indiana, the first project in the partnership between the two companies to come online.
“Our clean energy collaboration with Meta is gathering momentum across the US” said Phil North, Zelestra’s US CEO. “We are delighted to welcome full operations at Jasper County and start of construction at two further major projects, at the same time as closing another major agreement that will enable the construction of Skull Creek in Texas. Thanks to our forward-looking partnership, nearly 1.2 GWdc of new clean solar power will soon be operational in the US.”
Zelestra is advancing its position in the US energy landscape with innovative, multi-technology solutions tailored to the evolving needs of hyperscalers and other corporate partners. Headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, the company is developing a robust portfolio of approximately 15 GW of renewable energy projects across key markets.
