Overview
- Treaty Oak Clean Energy agreed to sell Google 100 megawatts from the Redfield Solar Project under a 15-year PPA, with Google as the sole offtaker for data centers across the MISO grid.
- The 1,033-acre Redfield project in Grant County broke ground in early 2025 and is expected to begin operating in the second quarter of 2026.
- Separately, Google and Entergy are seeking Arkansas Public Service Commission approval for the 600‑megawatt Cypress Solar project with battery storage in Jefferson County to serve the planned West Memphis data center.
- Entergy filings say Google would make monthly payments toward Cypress, and finance director Amy Morris testified residential bills could increase by about $2 per month, though key cost details remain redacted.
- Entergy and Google tout a projected $1.1 billion net benefit to ratepayers, while Redfield is forecast to support 275 peak construction jobs and generate about $9 million in lifetime local and state tax revenue.
