<\/p>\nbp has announced its 134MWdc (107MWac) Arche Solar project in Fulton County, Ohio, is beginning construction, helping support the global transition to lower carbon energy. Arche is expected to create around 200 US jobs across the supply chain during construction and provide more than $30 million in revenue to benefit local schools and other public services over the life of the project.<\/p>\n
bp has secured a power-purchase agreement (PPA) with Meta for the project, bringing together two major corporations to address greenhouse-gas emissions and support renewable-energy growth in the US. Once completed, Arche will generate enough clean energy annually to power the equivalent of more than 20,000 US homes.<\/p>\n

bp America chairman and president Dave Lawler said: \u201cThis agreement shows how companies can create jobs, invest in the US economy, and at the same time support net zero ambitions and help the world reduce carbon emissions. It\u2019s another example of bp partnering to accelerate change and becoming an integrated energy company \u2013 one that can help corporations, countries and cities decarbonize.\u201d<\/p>\n
