Using our scalable procurement approach, we've been able to collaborate quickly with energyRe to deliver new clean energy to the SPP grid system and support our 24/7 progress in the region.”

Miguel Prado, chief executive of energyRe, remarked, “energyRe is proud to deliver reliable clean power to support Google's ambitious sustainability and decarbonization goals. Google is a global leader in renewable energy and continues to set a high bar across the technology industry. energyRe's track record of delivering clean energy solutions for our customers makes us a trusted partner for companies working to reduce their carbon footprints.”
