NMRenewable Development (NMRD), a subsidiary of U.S. Electricity Corporation and PNM Resources, a local supplier, said it would invest $70 million to build a solar power plant. The first is expected to be operational by the end of next year, and the second plan will be operational in June 2020. Including these latest solar power plants, Facebook will invest more than $800 million in local solar and wind power, with a total capacity of 396 MW. Facebook promises to operate all data centers using renewable energy by 2020, after last year's 50% renewable energy use rate. Super-large companies like Apple and Google have achieved this goal, although they rely heavily on existing renewable infrastructure, while Facebook has invested in new projects: in the past year alone, the company plans to install more than 2.5 gigawatts of solar and wind power, emphasizing super-large capacity. The scale data center may actually promote the cause of renewable energy power generation. 华为开关电源柜华为电源柜 Pat Vincent-Collawn, chairman, president and CEO of PNM Resources, said, "New Mexico will be rich in solar generators, and the growth of Facebook's business will enable us to demonstrate our commitment to making New Mexico a sustainable energy leader. We are proud to support Facebook's data center project in New Mexico. " Facebook's data center expansion project broke ground in the middle of last year. Although the first phase of the construction of the data center park has not yet been completed, the work of the data center is expected to continue until 2023. In exchange for investment, local and state governments provided Facebook with a 30-year real estate tax credit, an annual tax rebate of $1.6 million and $13 million for local development and employment development. 华为开关电源柜华为电源柜 The New Mexico government has made a huge incentive to block Facebook's way of building data centers in Utah, and is considering it as an alternative. 华为开关电源柜华为电源柜 |
