Meta's Environmental Attribute Purchase agreements (EAPAs) are contracted through four strategically located facilities developed by Invenergy across the United States. These solar energy centers include Hardin II Solar in Ohio with a capacity of 150 MW and expected commercial operations in 2024, Delilah II Solar in Texas with a capacity of 150 MW and expected commercial operations in 2025, Tip Top Solar in New Mexico with a capacity of 110 MW and expected commercial operations in 2026, and Chalk Bluff Solar in Arkansas with a capacity of 350 MW and expected commercial operations in 2027.

The electricity generated from these projects will be delivered to the local grid, increasing regional reliability by providing power to nearby homes and businesses. In return for bringing new generation capacity online, Meta will receive clean energy credits. This partnership between Meta and Invenergy highlights the importance of investing in domestically produced electricity to meet the growing demand for clean energy.
