ENGIE North America and Meta have completed an Environmental Attributes Purchase Agreement (EAPA) for ENGIE to supply 260 MW of renewable energy and associated environmental attributes from its Sypert Branch solar project in Milam County, Texas to support Meta’s power needs.
Meta will purchase all of the facility’s output, which is expected to commence operation next year. Sypert Branch was developed by ENGIE, who will also construct and operate the project, located 10 miles from Meta’s data center in Temple, Texas.
“We are delighted to announce this agreement to work with Meta by providing renewable power that supports their growth and aligns with their net zero commitments,” says Dave Carroll, chief renewables officer and SVP, ENGIE North America.
“We are proud that ENGIE’s proven track record in developing, building and operating renewable assets puts us at the forefront of the energy transition and this agreement with Meta recognizes the importance of that track record to our customers.”

My maternal grandfather was born in southeastern Pennsylvania in 1903 and told me when I was a boy that in the 1920s, times were so good that saloon owners would offer a free lunch, consisting of bread, cheese, and cold cuts. “Sure, they were hoping you’d buy a glass of beer, but they really didn’t mind if you didn’t and simply scarfed down a free sandwich.”
He went on to tell me that nowadays, there’s a popular slogan: There’s no such thing as a free lunch, “but believe me, there was at the time.”
From today’s perspective of greed and selfishness, this whole story sounds like a fairy tale. Corporations and the congresspeople they own want one thing: to suck the life out of us.
As a financially comfortable, educated, straight white male, one might think I’m impervious to any of Trump’s policies.
I have a weakness, however, and it’s one I share with virtually every other progressive on the planet–I care deeply the well-being of other people. It disturbs me greatly to see other people suffer, especially when that suffering would be so easily avoided.
At left is a great example of a fallacy called a “false dichotomy.”
We all crave information that backs up what we already believe, and, in general, Trump supporters have this going on in spades.
When we think about it, isn’t in possible to both protect American citizens and respect the Constitution rights all people living here?
