Vesper Energy Enters into a 15-Year Virtual Power Purchase Agreement with Zoetis

Developer, owner and operator of utility-scale renewable energy assets, Vesper Energy, has entered into a 15-year virtual power purchase agreement with Zoetis, the world’s animal health company. Vesper will deliver more than 40 megawatts (MW) of renewable energy to the grid to power approximately 33 percent of Zoetis’ North American operations’ projected energy needs.

“At Zoetis, we are committed to protecting our planet while we fulfill our purpose to nurture the world and humankind by advancing care for animals,” said Jeannette Ferran Astorga, chief sustainability officer at Zoetis. “Partnering with Vesper Energy to make our North American operations cleaner and more sustainably powered is another step in our sustainability journey as we achieve our renewable energy goals.”

The solar energy will be generated from Vesper’s 500MW Hornet Solar project in west Texas, which is targeted to be fully operational by the end of 2023.
