TotalEnergies Powers Up Myrtle Solar Plant in Texas! ☀️🔋 TotalEnergies is proud to announce the commencement of commercial operations at Myrtle Solar, a utility-scale solar farm located south of Houston, Texas. This impressive facility boasts a capacity of 380 MWp of solar production and 225 MWh of co-located batteries, making it a significant contributor to the green energy landscape. With 705,000 #solarpanels spread across an area equivalent to 1,800 American football fields, Myrtle generates enough clean electricity to cover the consumption of 70,000 homes. What's remarkable is that 70% of Myrtle's power will supply TotalEnergies' industrial plants in the U.S. Gulf Coast region, aligning with the "Go Green" Project. This project aims to fulfill the power needs and reduce emissions at its industrial sites in Texas and Louisiana by 2025. Additionally, the remaining 30% of Myrtle's capacity will provide green electricity to Kilroy Realty Corporation under a 15-year corporate power purchase agreement (CPPA). This milestone also highlights TotalEnergies' commitment to renewable energy and its goal to build an integrated and profitable presence in Texas. With its cutting-edge Energy Storage Systems (ESS) containers, this solar plant is well-equipped for grid stabilization. Congratulations to TotalEnergies on this remarkable achievement, contributing to their global power generation target of over 100 TWh by 2030. 🌎💡 #renewableenergy #solarpower #energystorage #sustainability #totalenergies #greenenergy #commercialsolar #solar #solarinstallation #solarpowered #solarenergy

Solar doesn’t have to be limited to installations on single-family roofs - community solar makes it possible for those in multifamily buildings and lower income households to take advantage of clean energy from solar panels as well.☀️ Expanding solar beyond single-family installations is necessary for the clean energy transition - something embraced by our Energy Transition Solutions (ETS) division. That’s why we’re happy to announce that Aggreko has acquired nine community solar projects in upstate New York! Upon completion, the installations will total approximately 59 MW of generating capacity – benefiting low-and-moderate income New Yorkers. One of the projects, a 5.9 MW installation near Syracuse, just completed energization and Aggreko was on site to oversee the testing. 🔎 To learn more about these projects, which will reach commercialization and grid-connectivity within the next year, read our full press release below. #AggrekoDifference #SolarPower #CleanEnergy #ETS #EnergyTransition #PowerGrid
