Earlier this month, solar developer Sunraycer Renewables has signed two Environmental Attribute Purchase Agreements (EAPAs) with Meta, the global data and technology giant, to support the development of 310MW of solar PV capacity in Texas.

 

Under the agreements, Meta will purchase 100% of the Environmental Attributescommonly understood as the clean energy creditsfrom Sunraycers Midpoint Solar and Gaia Solar projects, both set to feed into the ERCOT (Electric Reliability Council of Texas) grid.

 

These projects represent the first utility-scale installations in Sunraycers 4GWac pipeline of solar and battery energy storage developments.

 

Located near Blum, Texas, the Midpoint Solar Project will deliver 127MWdc / 97.5MWac of solar energy, with commercial operations expected to begin in Q4 2025.

 

Meanwhile, the Gaia Solar Project, near Kerens, Texas, is slated to provide 184MWdc / 143MWac to ERCOT. Like Midpoint, Gaia is also projected to come online by the end of 2025.

 

This partnership with Meta underscores our commitment to delivering high-quality, utility-scale solar projects that drive the transition to clean energy,said David Lillefloren, CEO of Sunraycer. We are proud to support ERCOTs energy diversification efforts, while helping Meta meet its ambitious sustainability goals.

 

Expanding Beyond Utility-Scale Solar


In addition to the Meta agreement, Sunraycer is broadening its network of collaborators, including financial institutions, equipment manufacturers, and independent energy developers.

 

A cornerstone of this expansion is Sunraycers Accelerant Program, which focuses on empowering smaller solar developers by offering flexible capital solutions, institutional-grade operations and maintenance (O&M), and access to energy management services. This model provides a compelling alternative to traditional utility partnerships and enhances execution certainty.

 

Thanks to the Accelerant Program, Sunraycer is emerging as a key player in the industrial power buyer space, attracting a growing number of large data center operators seeking reliable clean energy solutions.

 

Were excited to support Sunraycers efforts to bring two solar projects to the grid in Texas,said Urvi Parekh, Global Head of Energy at Meta. These projects will support our goals to match our operations with 100% clean and renewable energy.
