Scala Data Centers, the leading Latin American platform of sustainable data centers in the Hyperscale market, and Serena, a global leader in clean energy investments, are announcing one of the largest renewable energy supply agreements in Latin America.
This project will expand Scala's already fully renewable energy portfolio, providing wind power to meet the demands of hyperscale data centers, including mixed AI workloads, according to the vendors.
The energy supply partnership will commence in January 2025, with the possibility of earlier initiation. The renewable energy will be sourced from the Assuruá 4 and Ventos da Bahia 3 wind farms, both located in the state of Bahia, in the Northeast Region of Brazil, with a total installed capacity of 393 MW.
Scala will hold a stake in these assets, thereby tripling the amount of renewable energy available to serve its clients for over a decade. This agreement underscores Serena's extensive expertise in developing clean and renewable energy solutions to support its partners.
"The agreement with Scala Data Centers reinforces how Serena is positioned to provide energy and infrastructure for high-performance computing and artificial intelligence, whether in Brazil or the United States. We are the ideal partner for technology companies to exponentially increase their supply of sustainable energy," said Fabiana Pasquot Polido, director of structured operations for the Americas.
This is a significant milestone in Scala's journey to strengthen data center infrastructure in Latin America while minimizing environmental impact, according to the company.
"This partnership with Serena enhances Scala's ability to provide our clients with a clean, competitive, and long-term energy supply," said Fabio Yanaguita, energy director at Scala Data Centers.
The transaction is subject to the fulfillment of customary conditions for this type of agreement.
