[Microsoft and Brookfield sign $10 billion renewable energy deal] Tech giant Microsoft has signed a global framework agreement to support about $10 billion worth of renewable energy projects and buy power developed by Brookfield Asset Management. The agreement aims to provide about 10.5 GW of solar and wind power between 2026 and 2030, and based on recent industry trends, this capacity will cost more than $10 billion to develop. Microsoft's deal with Brookfield would be the largest power purchase agreement of its kind, nearly tripling the 3 GW of power currently consumed by data centers in East Lawton County, Virginia. Lawton County, known as Data Center Lane, is the "largest data center market" in the world. The surge in artificial intelligence technology and the massive construction of data centers in the United States has the biggest tech companies scrambling for grid connections and reliable power supplies to power the technologies of the future. Most large companies want their power sources to be as clean as possible, preferably renewable. But utilities are struggling to keep up with soaring demand for data centers while maintaining reliable operations for all customers in the areas they serve. While Amazon, Microsoft, and all the other tech giants want solar and wind to power their operations, delivery times for new grid connections may take longer than they'd like. Editor/Xu Shengpeng
