The PPA will support the construction of the Cypress Knee Solar project in Chicot County, which is expected to be operational in 2028. The deal is the third between the two companies, with Meta agreeing to procure 545MW in total over the three agreements.

“Through our partnership with EDPR, Cypress Knee Solar will bring new generation to the Arkansas grid, creating local jobs and delivering economic benefits to the community. We’re proud to expand our collaboration with EDPR,” said Amanda Yang, head of Clean and Renewable Energy, Meta.

The two previous PPAs signed between the two companies were located in the Texas market. Both agreements are tied to solar projects, including the 240MW True North solar farm in Falls County and the 240MW Cattlemen Solar Park in Milam County.

“Cypress Knee Solar and our broader portfolio of projects with Meta are helping power a reliable, modern US electric grid—the backbone of American innovation and long-term economic growth,” said Sandhya Ganapathy, CEO of EDPR NA. “These investments strengthen local communities, create durable economic value, and ensure that progress is built on a resilient, sustainable foundation. EDPR NA is proud to work with Meta as we deliver domestic power and advanced infrastructure that reinforce American energy independence and expand economic opportunity nationwide.”

Meta has already signed several PPAs in 2026 so far. For example, in February, the firm inked an 80MW PPA with MN8 Energy tied to a solar project in Juniata County, Pennsylvania. Before this, in January, the company signed a long-term PPA with Origis Energy to offtake power from a 303MWdc solar project in Texas.

EDPR NA is the North American division of Portuguese-based renewable developer EDP Renewables. The firm currently operates more than 12.3GW of utility-scale wind and solar capacity across the US, Canada, and Mexico. In addition to its PPAs with Meta, the company has also inked long-term supply agreements with Amazon in Mississippi and Microsoft in Illinois and Texas.
