- Long-term commitment to acquire renewable energy credits from a
new solar project
- Matches 100% of Keysight’s electricity consumption in the
United States
Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS), signed a virtual power
purchase agreement (VPPA) with Southern Power, a leading U.S.
wholesale energy provider and subsidiary of Southern Company, to
acquire renewable energy credits produced by a 39 MW portion of the
Phase III expansion at the Millers Branch Solar Facility.
The VPPA allows Keysight to support renewable energy
development, demonstrating Keysight’s commitment to mitigate the
worst impacts of climate change. Phase III of the project, located
in Haskell County, Texas, is expected to achieve commercial
operation in the first quarter of Keysight’s fiscal year 2027.
Keysight’s portion of the project is estimated to generate
renewable electricity equivalent to 100% of the company’s
electricity consumption in the United States and Canada. This
commitment will result in significant progress towards Keysight’s
renewable electricity initiatives, near-term science-based target,
and goal to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions in company
operations by the end of fiscal year 2040.
Ingrid Estrada, Chief People and Administrative Officer at
Keysight, said: “We are proud to support the development of new
renewable electricity and reduce global greenhouse gas emissions.
By signing our first VPPA, Keysight is taking a huge step in our
sustainability journey, and we look forward to making continued
progress in this space.”
