Noon Energy and Meta Announce Plans for Up to 1 GW of 100+ Hour Energy Storage for Data Centers

Noon Energy announced an agreement with Meta Platforms, Inc. to reserve up to 1 GW / 100 GWh of energy storage capacity. The collaboration will begin with a 25 MW / 2.5 GWh project, scheduled for completion by 2028.

Following the success of that project, Noon will begin delivering systems under a 1 GW / 100 GWh supply contract.

The agreement aligns with Meta’s drive to accelerate the next generation of AI infrastructure using resources like Noon’s storage technology to unlock reliable energy supply from quick-to-build renewable generation. It also underscores the promise of Noon’s ultra-long duration energy storage for hyperscale applications.

Noon’s modular, reversible solid oxide fuel cell 100+ hour energy storage systems allow energy to be stored and discharged for multi-day periods when intermittent renewables have low generation, providing 24/7 baseload clean energy.
 
“Our partnership with Meta is a monumental step toward realizing what we founded Noon to achieve,” says Chris Graves, co-founder and CEO of Noon Energy. “We’re partnering with a company that is actively securing stable power for the AI infrastructure of tomorrow, and Meta recognizes the promise in our 100+ hour ultra-long duration storage technology.
 
"Data centers stand as one of the best applications for Noon’s battery system, and we look forward to working with Meta on building production capacity and an ultra-LDES supply chain in the years ahead.”
 
“Bringing data centers online faster requires rapid deployment of reliable energy sources. Our agreement with Noon advances that goal with a storage technology that delivers grid resilience and firm power,” said Nat Sahlstrom, VP of Energy and Sustainability, Meta. 
 
Noon will soon begin developing the initial 25 MW / 2.5 GWh project.
