A statement from both companies disclosed that CleanMax would own and operate the projects, while Facebook would buy the power off the grid using environmental attribute certificates, or carbon credits.

Facebook does not own the power plants, but has signed ‘long term’ electricity purchasing agreements with the renewable power company, Facebook Head of Renewable Energy, Urvi Parekh, told newsmen.

In a separate event, Facebook Chief Executive Officer, Mark Zuckerberg, announced that his firm’s “global operations are now supported wholly by renewable energy that has now reached net-zero emissions.”

India is Facebook’s biggest market based on users.
