Amazon has added almost 1 GW of clean energy to European grids through 20 new renewable projects launched in 2025. Developed with 12 energy partners, the projects span Spain, Italy, Poland, Germany, and Greece.
Together, they can power over 700,000 homes each year. Amazon now supports more than 230 renewable projects in Europe, mainly through power purchase agreements that provide long-term stability for developers.
Key earlier investments include 189 MW from Germany’s Baltic Eagle offshore wind farm, 87 MW from Poland’s Miłkowice solar project, and 64 MW from two solar farms in Spain. Over 70 more Amazon-backed projects are expected by 2030, expanding clean energy capacity in key markets such as Spain, Ireland, the UK, Poland, and Germany.
