RWE AG said Wednesday that its subsidiary RWE Renewables GmbH has partnered with Facebook Inc. and the Tennessee Valley Authority to build a 150-megawatt solar facility in the U.S. state.

The German energy player said the project, which will be located in Shelby County, will support Facebook's data center operations in the region. RWE will own and operate the plant through a long-term power purchase agreement with TVA.

Operations are scheduled to start in late 2023.
