TotalEnergies has entered into a 21-year power purchase agreement with Google to supply one terawatt-hour of renewable electricity from the Citra Energies solar plant located in the northern Malaysian state of Kedah. The project, with an installed capacity of 20 megawatts, will power Google’s future data centre operations in the country.
A key project for Google’s regional operations
The solar plant, scheduled to begin construction in early 2026, is part of Malaysia’s Corporate Green Power Programme, which enables companies to sign direct agreements with renewable electricity producers. The project is 49% owned by TotalEnergies and 51% by its local partner MK Land.
The agreement will take effect once the project reaches financial close, expected in the first quarter of 2026. The solar energy produced will be fed into the grid to meet Google’s growing electricity demand in the region, particularly for digital infrastructure.
Strategic expansion of TotalEnergies in Asia
This deal marks a new milestone for TotalEnergies in its growth strategy across emerging markets. The company is strengthening its portfolio in the Asia-Pacific region while addressing the demand from international technology firms for long-term power supply solutions.
The partnership follows a series of similar agreements already signed between TotalEnergies and Google in other regions, including Europe and the United States. TotalEnergies’ Flexible Power & Integration division is responsible for the design and deployment of these projects.
Competitive positioning in emerging markets
This contract comes amid growing competition among renewable power suppliers to serve the needs of major tech companies in developing markets. The 21-year contract provides the kind of financial and operational visibility sought by investors in the energy sector.
The total volume of 1TWh over the contract period places the project among the largest private power purchase agreements ever signed in Malaysia.
