Google Unveils Massive Solar Project in Texas, Marking Largest Solar Purchase

The project, generating 875 megawatts, underscores Google's commitment to renewable energy and supports its growing data center infrastructure.

The Orion Solar Belt, built by SB Energy in Buckholts, Texas, consists of three solar farms providing 875 megawatts of clean energy.
Google's investment in this project is part of a broader $16 billion global commitment to clean energy by 2040.
Approximately 85% of the solar power will be used for Google's data centers and cloud computing in the Dallas region.
The project aligns with the U.S. administration's goals to promote domestic clean energy manufacturing, supported by the Inflation Reduction Act.
Google, along with other tech giants, is exploring additional carbon-free energy sources to meet the rising demands of data centers and AI.
