We’ve been proud to call Oklahoma home since 2007. Over the years, we’ve invested in energy solutions that benefit Oklahomans — from helping double the local electrical workforce to assisting schools in saving hundreds of thousands of dollars annually through efficiency upgrades.
Today, we’re deepening those roots by announcing a long-term energy agreement with Oklahoma Gas and Electric (OG&E). This new collaboration will support our under-construction data center campuses in Muskogee and Stillwater. Just as importantly, it’s designed to protect affordability for OG&E’s customers.
Under the new agreement, we’re making a long-term financial commitment to pay for the infrastructure built to serve our growth. We make these commitments to ensure households and local businesses do not foot our bill, and to provide the assurances necessary for our utility partners to build new power sources and fund grid upgrades.
We believe energy growth and affordability go hand-in-hand. That’s why we’re continuing to bring new, low-cost clean energy to the Oklahoma grid.
In November, we announced power purchase agreements for energy from solar plants in Stephens and Muskogee Counties. Google will provide capacity purchase agreements from these facilities to OG&E, supplementing existing energy supply and partially offsetting the need to procure new energy projects as electricity demand grows across the region.
Building on our near two-decade track record in the state, we are here for the long haul. We promise to continue showing up for Oklahoma, today and tomorrow.
