European Commission has launched a number of initiatives including the EU efficiency package for data centers which will include mandatory reporting requirements under the Energy Efficiency Directive, with a new, comprehensive package of standards to tighten data center energy performance standards.
There is also the Cloud and AI Development Act which aims to strengthen Europe's leadership in cloud computing and artificial intelligence (AI).
Europe signed only 280MW of renewable energy PPAs in May 2025, representing the lowest capacity of PPAs signed in Europe since 2020, according to Pexapark’s monthly ‘PPA Times’ report. This is also an almost 80% drop from the previous month in terms of capacity, and a 45% drop in number of deals signed. What should energy procurement look like in the future and how is the PPA market evolving to demand.
