Adapture Renewables Expands Partnership with Meta Through Two New Agreements in Texas
'This expanded partnership reflects the trust and alignment we've built with Meta over time,' said Jesse Tippett, VP of Origination at Adapture Renewables.
The agreements total 360 MW across two solar projects located in ERCOT that are expected to reach commercial operation in 2027. These projects represent a significant milestone for both Adapture Renewables' growing development pipeline as well as Meta's renewable energy portfolio. As demand for electricity surges, driven in part by the rapid growth of data centers and AI technologies, utility-scale solar projects like these are increasingly critical to meeting grid-wide energy needs.
These new EAPAs build on the three previously executed agreements between Adapture Renewables and Meta in 2023, bringing the total number of agreements between the companies to five, and total capacity to nearly 700MW across three states.
'This expanded partnership reflects the trust and alignment we've built with Meta over time,' said Jesse Tippett, VP of Origination at Adapture Renewables. 'By structuring long-term agreements that balance risk and value for both parties, we're helping to scale meaningful projects while enabling our partners to meet their clean energy goals.'
'Meta is always looking for opportunities to bring new renewable energy to the grid, and partnerships like this help make that possible,' said Amanda Yang, Co-Head of Clean and Renewable Energy at Meta. 'We're excited to expand our relationship with Adapture Renewables through these new agreements and continue supporting projects that move the energy transition forward.'

Ferrari Agrees: Touch-Sensitive Steering Wheel Buttons Were a Bad Idea
There's a new Ferrari in town, and it's called the Amalfi. Continuing the automaker's penchant for naming sports cars with Italian landmarks, the Amalfi, which is the successor to the Roma, brings evolutionary styling and upgraded tech to the base-level Ferrari model. However, its most welcome feature is something refreshingly simple: proper physical, tactile buttons on the steering wheel. With the Amalfi's arrival, Ferrari has officially backtracked on one of its most criticized decisions – its insistence on using touch-sensitive controls on the steering wheel. Introduced on models like the SF90 and Roma, the system aimed to enhance modernity and performance, but instead left many owners fumbling through menus mid-drive or accidentally activating features while on a spirited drive. Speaking to Top Gear, Ferrari marketing boss Enrico Galliera explained the company's reasoning behind the haptic controls, and its subsequent reversal. "Our philosophy is always 'hands on the wheel, eyes on the road.' But we were finding people were having too much time with their eyes also on the wheel. We listened to our customers," he admitted. He added that while touch controls may be faster on a smartphone, the experience in a moving supercar proved far less intuitive. Galliera also acknowledged that Ferrari's HMI (human-machine interface) "was probably too advanced and not 100 percent perfect in use." The touch interface had been developed in pursuit of performance and speed, mirroring the ultra-fast SF90's hybrid system, but ultimately didn't match the needs of drivers in the real world. Now, Ferrari is "re-balancing, not changing" its design strategy. Design chief Flavio Manzoni seconded the move. "Beauty is simplicity," he told Top Gear, reinforcing the notion that elegance and usability can – and should – coexist in a Ferrari. Best of all, the tactile steering wheel buttons are not a feature locked to the new Amalfi. According to Ferrari's product development chief Gianmaria Fulgenzi, several existing models - including the 296 GTB, Purosangue, SF90, and 12Cilindri - can be retrofitted with the new steering wheel setup. "Yes, you can have it," Fulgenzi told Top Gear. "We don't even have to replace the whole wheel. Just the center." The retrofit can be performed at any Ferrari dealer, and after a short test drive to verify calibration, drivers are good to go. It's a rare move for a brand like Ferrari to admit fault so directly, but one that's bound to earn goodwill from customers who've long wanted the brand's supercars to get back to just being great to drive.
