Scout Clean Energy signs a 300 MW VPPA with Oracle
Contract | Completed | Scout Clean Energy press release 2026/10/07
The Ranchero wind farm in Crockett County Texas, covering a majority of output as a financial hedge rather than physical supply, with no contract value disclosed.
3.Deal Value This Period
Blue bars are deal value disclosed this period and grey bars are excluded. Only two early-stage equity rounds count, Nous Research at $90M and Mecka AI at $60M, $150M combined; the excluded side totals $1,057M, seven times the counted figure.
4.Today's Wrap
The only signed transaction today sits in Layer 6 Power, and it is a virtual power purchase agreement, so what Oracle bought is a financial hedge rather than electricity on its own meter. That skips the interconnection queue, at the cost that this money never becomes usable capacity at any hall. All three items in Layer 5 Racks & Cooling point at capacity landing in 2028. The firmest signature sits furthest downstream while the fastest payment sits furthest upstream.
How to use this next time: when a large power deal appears, ask three things. Is it physical supply or a VPPA, was a contract value disclosed, and what year does first delivery land. Those answers decide whether the money moves anything this year or three years out.
