- The Greasewood project in Girvin, Pecos County, has operated since 2021 and is expected to produce about 130GWh a year for Sabey, or roughly 1.3TWh over the ten-year term, Data Center Dynamics first reported.
- For allocators in CIP's renewables funds, the agreement gives a data-center counterparty for 43.5MW of capacity from an operating Texas solar plant for ten years.
- Sabey's platform had 275MW in service and a pipeline to roughly 737MW by 2033, as Private Infrastructure Daily previously reported when Ares Secondaries pushed its cumulative commitment in the company past $500 million.
Sabey Data Centers signed a ten-year virtual power purchase agreement for 43.5MW of solar capacity with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners' Greasewood solar project in Texas, the company said this week.
The Greasewood project in Girvin, Pecos County, has operated since 2021 and is expected to produce about 130GWh a year for Sabey, or roughly 1.3TWh over the ten-year term, Data Center Dynamics first reported. Terms were not disclosed.
For allocators in CIP's renewables funds, the agreement gives a data-center counterparty for 43.5MW of capacity from an operating Texas solar plant for ten years. The diligence question is what share of Greasewood's total capacity that 43.5MW represents.
"Our 2029 net-zero goal requires us to think beyond simply buying renewable energy year to year," said Casey Mason, director of energy & sustainability at Sabey Data Centers.
Sabey's platform had 275MW in service and a pipeline to roughly 737MW by 2033, as Private Infrastructure Daily previously reported when Ares Secondaries pushed its cumulative commitment in the company past $500 million. The 43.5MW of contracted capacity covers part of the load Sabey is still building out.
