MN8 Energy has commissioned two utility-scale solar projects totaling 260 MWac of capacity. These projects have long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) with Microsoft. The projects include the 120 MW Long Point solar project in Texas and the 140 MW American Beech project in North Carolina. The Long Point project supplies renewable power to ERCOT’s Houston load zone, while American Beech supplies renewable power into the PJM market.
MN8 Energy works with enterprise customers to transition to clean energy solutions and owns approximately 4 GW of operational and under-construction solar capacity, with 1.5 GWh of battery energy storage. In October 2025, it signed a supply agreement with Eos Energy Enterprises to procure up tp 750 MWh of battery energy storage systems across a range of renewable projects in US, to deliver clean and dispatchable power for large energy consumers.
MN8 Energy commenced commercial operations at the Pome battery energy storage system in Poway, California recently. The project provides 100 MW/400 MWh of storage capacity and is fully contracted to Sonoma Clean Power under a 10-year tolling agreement. The project will help SCP store and dispatch electricity into the CAISO market.
Early in the year, MN8 Energy signed a PPA with another tech giant Meta for the 80 MW Walker Solar Project in Juniata County, Pennsylvania. Under the agreement, Meta will purchase 100 percent of the project’s renewable energy output. The project is currently under development and is expected to commence operations by the end of 2026.
REGlobal’s Views: Large hyperscale energy customers like Microsoft are increasingly procuring tremendous amounts of renewables to meet their energy requirements. Microsoft is already a large corporate purchaser of renewable power and this recent offtake arrangement will help the company to move closer to its net zero goals.
