Telecom Argentina adds new green energy supplier

Telecom Argentina signed a 10-year agreement with MSU Green Energy to supply 60,000MWh/y of solar power as part of its objective to cover 50% of its energy demand from renewable sources by 2030.

The electricity provided by MSU Green Energy from its Pampa del Infierno solar park, located in Chaco province, will supply more than 100 operational telecom buildings distributed throughout its network.

Pampa del Infierno started operations last August with installed capacity of 130MW. 

Last year, Telecom Argentina signed 10-year sustainable energy supply agreements with Genneia and YPF Luz for 159,700MWh/y, or around 22% of the company's total annual consumption.

With the new agreement with MSU Green Energy, Telecom Argentina will be investing close to US$14mn annually for sustainable electric power supply, representing 17.5% of the company’s total energy expenditure. 

Telecom Argentina also has 22 hybrid sites with renewable energy generation capacity of 140MWh/y, according to its latest 2023 sustainability report. 

According to Telecom, the use of renewable energy contributes to reducing emissions by 33,537t/y of CO2.
