With a portfolio of 27 GW of carbon-free projects across 13 countries, Zelestra is a vertically integrated company specializing in developing, commercializing, constructing, and operating large-scale renewable energy projects. It is backed by EQT.
With the 2025 Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum in Davos convening under the title ‘Collaboration for the Intelligent Age’, there is a sharp focus on the global energy sector and how it will continue to innovate to help tackle the climate change crisis.
More than ever, the energy sector must join forces with industry to design new ways to deliver a cleaner and smarter future. Tech companies and data center operators have emerged as key players, while market dynamics and global policies demand adaptability and strategic vision. Zelestra, the global multi-technology renewable energy innovator, is growing its business with collaboration at its core. Its mission is to co-build a carbon-free tomorrow with its customers.
The year 2025 is critical for the renewable energy sector, marked by a constantly evolving political, economic and technological environment.
Despite macroeconomic challenges, the drive towards decarbonization continues.
Key to this growth is the rise of “The Intelligent Age”. The expansion of artificial intelligence is transforming industries, but it is also significantly raising the demand for electricity. In this context, technology companies and data center operators have emerged as some of the largest buyers of renewable energy. This reinforces the importance of ensuring an adequate supply of carbon-free energy to keep pace with technological innovation.
Zelestra is rapidly transforming to meet the needs of industry, more than doubling its clean energy projects in construction and operation in just over a year. With new agreements concluded across the world, it has firmly established its position as a global strategic partner to sector-leading companies seeking to transition to renewable energy.
Beyond the immediate demands of the tech sector, the IEA points out that the world is set to add more than 5,500 gigawatts (GW) of new renewable energy capacity between 2024 and 2030, moving us closer to a fully sustainable electricity system.
The energy transition is unstoppable, but the year ahead will be critical to ensure it continues at the pace required for long-term goals. Industrial commitment to sustainability and innovation will be central to making a cleaner future a reality.
Innovative and agile companies like Zelestra will foster even deeper relationships with businesses and communities, working together to ensure that the growth of renewable energy leads to tangible benefits for everyone.
