TotalEnergies Signs 21-Year Solar PPA to Power Google Data Centers in Malaysia

The contract takes effect at financial close expected in Q1 2026, signaling new capacity through Malaysia’s Corporate Green Power Programme.

Overview

  • Google will procure 1 TWh of certified renewable electricity, roughly equivalent to 20 MW, from the planned Citra Energies solar project in Kedah.
  • The PPA supports Google’s data center operations in Malaysia with power sourced from new-build capacity rather than the existing grid mix.
  • Construction of the Citra Energies plant is scheduled to begin in early 2026, with the agreement becoming effective upon financial close expected in the first quarter of 2026.
  • TotalEnergies holds 49% of the project alongside local partner MK Land at 51%, with the project awarded in August 2023 under the CGPP framework.
  • The deal extends a growing partnership after a November agreement to supply Google’s U.S. data centers, aligning with Google’s strategy to enable new clean capacity.
