Amazon signed agreements for nine renewable energy projects across New South Wales and Victoria, adding approximately 430 MW of capacity to support its expanding data centre footprint. The portfolio includes a mix of solar, wind, and battery storage, with a strong tilt toward hybrid solar-plus-storage projects, making one of Amazon’s first large-scale deployments of this model outside of the US. The inclusion of battery storage is expected to improve reliability by shifting excess generation to periods of low output, strengthening the consistency of supply for energy-intensive operations

Blackstone Infrastructure has agreed to invest up to €2 billion in Eurowind Energy, a pan-European renewables developer and independent power producer operating across 16 markets. The capital will fund accelerated buildout across onshore wind, solar, battery storage, and biogas, as European power demand is expected to grow over 3% annually through 2040, driven by electrification, AI, and re-industrialization. Eurowind’s existing management will remain in place alongside co-owner Norlys.

BayWa r.e. has sold two wind assets in Poland and Italy, totalling roughly 80 MW, continuing the trend of developers recycling capital into new projects. The company divested the 30 MW Kamionka wind farm in Poland to ENGIE Zielona Energia, an operational asset online since 2012, and agreed to sell the 48.8 MW Vallelunga project in Italy to Alerion, a permitted project expected to generate around 120 GWh annually. The transactions highlight ongoing demand for both operating and late-stage development assets in Europe, as developers monetize projects and redeploy capital into their pipeline.

French cleantech company ROSI has raised over €20 million to expand its photovoltaic recycling capacity, targeting the recovery of high-value materials including silicon and silver from end-of-life solar panels. The funding will support a new industrial facility in Spain with a planned capacity of 10,000 tons per year, as Europe prepares for a surge in solar waste by 2050. The raise, backed by InnoEnergy, CMA CGM, and the European Innovation Council, highlights growing investor focus on circular supply chains and critical material recovery within the solar value chain.

Euclid has acquired AI startup Thresh Power to automate diligence across renewable energy projects, combining its project software and services with AI-driven document analysis. The move targets a key bottleneck in development, where evaluating a single project can involve thousands of documents and weeks of manual work. By integrating Thresh’s AI tools, Euclid aims to accelerate project evaluation and investment decisions as U.S. power demand is projected to rise 25% by 2030. The deal signals growing adoption of AI in renewable energy workflows, particularly in high-friction areas like diligence and transaction execution.

Blue Energy has raised $380 million in new financing to advance its prefabricated nuclear plant model, targeting faster deployment and lower cost overruns across projects. The capital will support equipment procurement and development, including a planned 1.5 GW Texas project aimed at supplying baseload power to AI data centers. The company’s approach focuses on standardized, off-site construction and fixed-price delivery to improve timelines and investor certainty.
