Cargill is expanding its renewable electricity portfolio in the United States through wind and solar projects in Oklahoma and South Dakota. The company has entered into a virtual power purchase agreement (VPPA) for 87 MW of wind power from the Sweetland Wind project in South Dakota. The 12.6-year agreement is expected to generate approximately 392,000 MWh of renewable electricity annually.
Cargill previously signed a long-term VPPA for the full output of the 85 MW Choctaw Fields Solar project in Oklahoma, which began commercial operations in August 2026.
Both projects are located within the Southwest Power Pool (SPP), a regional grid serving much of the central United States, including states where Cargill operates large facilities.
The projects form part of Cargill’s broader approach to energy across its operations. Its renewable electricity portfolio includes six VPPAs in North America and more than 100 projects across 30 countries.
