Google has made a landmark agreement to purchase geothermal energy for its Asian facilities, marking Taiwan's first geothermal power purchase agreement. This initiative is part of Googleâs broader strategy to achieve its climate goals by halving planet-heating emissions and ensuring all its electricity use comes from carbon-free sources by 2030. The deal, facilitated by Baseload Capital, will add 10 megawatts of geothermal energy to Taiwanâs grid by 2029, significantly enhancing the countryâs geothermal capacity while powering Google's regional operations and marking a potential model for similar projects in Japan and Indonesia.
This historic agreement signals a commitment to renewable energy and the reduction of fossil fuel reliance in Taiwan, setting a precedent for future geothermal projects.
Through this landmark geothermal deal, Google aims to significantly advance its renewable energy goals, contributing to the sustainability of its operations in Asia.
