Keysight Technologies, Inc. has entered into a virtual power purchase agreement (VPPA) with Southern Power, a U.S. wholesale energy provider and a subsidiary of Southern Company. Through this agreement, Keysight will acquire renewable energy credits from a 39 MW segment of the Millers Branch Solar Facility’s Phase III expansion in Haskell County, Texas.
This initiative underscores Keysight’s dedication to supporting renewable energy and combating climate change. Phase III of the solar project is expected to begin operations in the first quarter of Keysight’s fiscal year 2027.
Ingrid Estrada, Chief People and Administrative Officer at Keysight, stated “We are proud to support the development of new renewable electricity and reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. By signing our first VPPA, Keysight is taking a huge step in our sustainability journey, and we look forward to making continued progress in this space.”
The renewable energy generated from Keysight’s portion of the project will match 100% of the company’s electricity use in the U.S. and Canada. This significant step advances Keysight’s renewable energy goals, aligns with its near-term science-based target, and supports its commitment to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across operations by fiscal year 2040.
