Mytilineos secures 14 MW solar PPAs for Dublin data centers

• Keppel DC REIT secures long-term solar power agreements in Ireland, moving closer to net zero operations by 2030.

Singapore-based Keppel DC REIT has signed two 10-year power purchase agreements with Mytilineos SA to procure electricity from 14.3 MW of Irish solar parks. The power will be supplied to Keppel DC REIT's two data centres in Dublin, with Mytilineos' Energy & Metals business providing the power from PV parks in Wexford and Kilkenny counties. Once operational this summer, the solar parks will generate around 13.6 GWh of electricity annually, meeting about 11% of the data centres' total power needs.

With these new PPAs, 92% of the power demand at Keppel DC REIT's Dublin facilities will be met by renewables. The agreements support the REIT's goal of achieving net zero operations in Ireland by 2030, following a previous deal for 67 GWh of wind power annually signed with Greencoat Renewables in April.
