Equinix Signs 50 MWp Solar PPA With Flo Energy To Boost Renewable Power In Singapore

Global digital infrastructure provider Equinix has signed a new renewable energy Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Flo Energy Singapore to supply solar power to its facilities across Singapore. The agreement marks Equinix’s fourth renewable energy deal in the country over the past two years, strengthening its efforts to secure clean electricity for its growing digital infrastructure.

Under the agreement, Flo Energy Singapore will initially provide at least 11.5 megawatt-peak (MWp) of solar capacity to Equinix. The electricity will come from rooftop solar installations deployed across commercial and industrial buildings in Singapore. The agreement also allows Equinix to increase the contracted capacity to as much as 50 MWp as its electricity requirements grow.

The latest PPA is expected to make a significant contribution to Equinix’s renewable energy portfolio in Singapore. The company expects its cumulative renewable energy capacity in the country to reach 215 MWp by 2028. Across its renewable energy agreements, Equinix expects to generate approximately 250,000 megawatt-hours (MWh) of clean electricity annually. This amount is equivalent to the electricity required to charge around 60,000 electric vehicles in Singapore each year.

The partnership also expands Equinix’s approach to renewable energy procurement. The company has previously participated in initiatives including the SolarNova 7 project and the JTC Jurong Island renewable energy programme. Working with Flo Energy adds another private-sector partnership to its portfolio while supporting the development of additional rooftop solar capacity within Singapore.

The agreement comes as data center operators face increasing pressure to manage rising electricity consumption and reduce carbon emissions. Singapore has established itself as a major hub for data centers, cloud computing and artificial intelligence services in Southeast Asia. However, limited land availability and constraints on electricity resources have increased the importance of efficient and sustainable power sourcing.

Equinix said sustainable digital infrastructure will be important to maintaining Singapore’s position as a reliable and resilient global technology hub. The new solar agreement also supports the country’s broader sustainability objectives under the Singapore Green Plan 2030, which promotes greater clean energy adoption and emissions reduction.

By expanding its renewable energy procurement through rooftop solar, Equinix is strengthening its efforts to reduce the environmental impact of its data center operations while supporting Singapore’s transition toward a more sustainable digital economy.
