Google and Voltus sign agreement for 100 MW virtual power plant in US

Voltus has signed a three-year bring your own capacity (BYOC) agreement with Google. Under the agreement, Voltus will aggregate up to 100 MW of distributed energy resources annually across the PJM grid region. The Google-funded virtual power plant will combine assets such as batteries, smart thermostats, and other flexible energy resources from homes and businesses. Participating customers will receive payments from Voltus for supporting grid reliability.

In May 2026, Enlight Renewable Energy signed a 15-year physical power purchase agreement (PPA) with Google for solar energy supply in Oklahoma. The agreement will deliver 200 MWac of solar power from the Solstice solar project to the Southwest Power Pool market. The renewable energy generated from Solstice will support Google’s regional data center operations.

In March 2026, Google partnered with DTE Energy to develop a new data centre in Michigan, supported by a commitment to enable 2.7 GW of new clean energy resources for the local grid. The project is structured to supply round-the-clock clean power directly to the grid, with a site in Van Buren township currently under evaluation. The data centre’s electricity demand will be met through solar power and advanced energy storage technologies.
