Meta has expanded a clean energy partnership with Canadian energy firm Enbridge.

The deal will see Meta take power from Enbridge’s Cowboy solar and battery storage project located near Cheyenne, Wyoming. The project comprises two facilities, Cowboy I and Cowboy II. Cowboy I, which is tied to the Meta deal, will comprise 365MW of solar power with a 200MW/1,600MWh battery energy storage system (BESS). Enbridge has completed public consultation work for Cowboy Solar and is in the process of obtaining necessary approvals for the project. The project is expected to reach commercial operations in Q4 of 2028.
“The first phase of the Cowboy Project builds on our strong and growing relationship with Meta and reflects Enbridge's disciplined approach to expanding our power portfolio,” said Allen Capps, Enbridge’s SVP of Corporate Strategy and president of its Power business. “By integrating utility-scale solar with battery storage, we’re delivering reliable, scalable energy solutions that support Meta’s data center operations while strengthening grid performance.”
The deal builds on a 600MW Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) between the two companies signed in July of last year. The PPA is tied to the 600MW Clear Fork project, located near San Antonio, which is currently under construction and is expected to be completed in summer 2027.
