TotalEnergies has signed a 21-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with Google to deliver 1TWh of certified renewable power from the Citra Energies solar plant, which is located in northern Kedah of Malaysia.

Construction of the Citra Energies solar farm is set to start in early 2026, and the project will supply renewable power to support Google’s data centre operations in the country.

In August 2023, TotalEnergies (49%) and its local partner MK Land (51%) secured the project from Malaysian Energy Commission under the country’s Corporate Green Power Programme.

The PPA will commence once the project reaches financial close, which is anticipated in the first quarter of 2026.

Google Asia-Pacific head of clean energy and power Giorgio Fortunato said: “We’re thrilled to build on our collaboration with TotalEnergies in Malaysia. 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.”

This long-term contract comes after on a PPA announced by TotalEnergies in November to provide renewable electricity to Google’s data centres in the US.

TotalEnergies has entered into comparable renewable energy contracts with companies including Data4, STMicroelectronics, Air Liquide, Amazon, Saint-Gobain, Merck, Microsoft, LyondellBasell, Orange and Sasol.

With these partnerships, TotalEnergies stated that its aims to help customers advance their decarbonisation goals.

TotalEnergies senior vice-president flexible power and integration Sophie Chevalier said: “We are delighted to strengthen our collaboration with Google through this agreement to supply renewable electricity to their new data centre in Malaysia.

“This PPA illustrates our company’s 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% profitability in the power sector.”

TotalEnergies is developing a portfolio that is a mix of renewables such as solar and wind, with flexible assets such as combined cycle gas turbine and storage.

As of October 2025, the company claims to have over 32GW of installed gross renewable generation capacity, with a target of 35GW by the end of 2025 and more than 100TWh of net electricity to be produced by the end of this decade.
