TotalEnergies and Google have signed a 21-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) to supply renewable electricity from a new solar project in Malaysia.

TotalEnergies will deliver a total volume of 1 TWh of renewable power, equivalent to 20 MW, from the Citra Energies solar plant located in Malaysia’s northern Kedah province. The solar farm is scheduled to enter construction in early 2026 and will supply electricity directly to Google’s data center operations in Malaysia.

The project was awarded by the Malaysian Energy Commission in August 2023 to TotalEnergies, which holds a 49 percent stake, and its local partner MK Land, which owns 51 percent, under Malaysia’s Corporate Green Power Programme. The PPA will take effect once the project reaches Financial Close, expected in the first quarter of 2026.

Supporting Google’s Clean Energy Strategy in Asia Pacific

The Malaysia agreement reflects Google’s broader strategy to add new clean energy capacity to the grids where it operates, ensuring that growing digital infrastructure is matched with renewable power generation. It also builds on an earlier PPA announced in November, under which TotalEnergies supplies renewable electricity to Google’s data centers in the United States.

“This agreement is a key part of our strategy to make meaningful investments that benefit the economies where we operate. By enabling this new clean capacity, we are supporting local growth of the electricity system hosting our infrastructure,” said Giorgio Fortunato, Head of Clean Energy and Power, Asia Pacific at Google.

Strengthening TotalEnergies’ Power Business

For TotalEnergies, the PPA highlights its ability to structure long-term renewable power solutions for large technology companies across both mature and emerging markets.

“This PPA illustrates our ability to offer competitive power solutions tailored to the needs of major tech groups, both in mature markets such as the United States and Europe and in emerging countries like Malaysia. It also contributes to achieving our target of 12 percent profitability in the power sector,” said Sophie Chevalier, Senior Vice President Flexible Power and Integration at TotalEnergies.

Expanding Portfolio of Tailored PPAs

The agreement with Google follows a series of similar long-term contracts signed by TotalEnergies with global companies including Data4, STMicroelectronics, Saint-Gobain, Air Liquide, Amazon, LyondellBasell, Merck, Microsoft, Orange and Sasol. These PPAs demonstrate how TotalEnergies leverages its diversified asset portfolio to support customer decarbonization strategies.

Growing Renewable Power Footprint

TotalEnergies continues to expand a competitive electricity portfolio that combines renewable energy assets such as solar, onshore wind and offshore wind with flexible generation and storage. As of the end of October 2025, the company had more than 32 GW of installed gross renewable electricity generation capacity and is targeting 35 GW by the end of 2025. TotalEnergies also aims to exceed 100 TWh of net electricity production by 2030.
