The project is located in Bowie County, Texas. Construction commenced earlier this year, with commissioning expected by the end of 2027. According to Meta, the capacity generated by the project will support its goal of matching its operations with 100 percent clean energy.
“Our partnership with Meta continues to grow as we work together to deliver reliable power that supports their energy commitments. This agreement for the Rabbit’s Foot Solar project demonstrates how collaboration can drive meaningful economic growth and community benefits,” said Ingmar Ritzenhofen, chief commercial officer, RWE Americas.
“By investing in Bowie County, we’re not only creating approximately 200 local construction jobs, but also generating substantial long-term tax revenue that will help support schools, technical education programs, emergency services, and critical road maintenance and infrastructure improvements across the community.”
