Thermo Fisher Scientific, EDF sign 20-year PPA for 200 MW Millers Branch Solar project in Texas

EDF Renewables, a unit of EDF Group, has signed a 20-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc, for the clean energy that will be produced from the 200 MW Millers Branch Solar photovoltaic project. 

The agreement with EDF Renewables will deliver approximately 545,000 MWh of renewable electricity annually from the Millers Branch Solar project in Texas, USA. This project complements Thermo Fisher’s previously announced agreement with Enel North America for the Seven Cowboy wind project. Together, these projects will provide enough renewable power to match all of Thermo Fisher’s current U.S. electricity needs.

The Millers Branch Solar project is expected to be operational by December 2025. Thermo Fisher was supported by Sustainability Roundtable Inc.’s Net Zero Consortium for Buyers, a platform committed to helping corporate buyers with global decarbonization strategies and favorable renewable energy transactions.
