The clean energy industry is at a pivotal moment, with recent market movements, deals, and partnerships shaping its trajectory. According to S&P Global Commodity Insights, primary energy demand is projected to increase by over eight million barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d) in 2025, with clean energy supply growing but not fast enough to curtail fossil fuel demand growth[1].
In the United States, the Biden administration has made significant strides in promoting clean energy. Just days before the transition to a new administration, the U.S. General Services Administration awarded a $1 billion contract to Constellation Energy for a historic nuclear power supply to 13 federal agencies, aiming to transition from 40% to 70% clean energy by 2027 and 100% by 2030[2].
The renewable energy sector saw record-breaking deployments in 2023, with solar and energy storage installations escalating and electric vehicle sales surging. However, challenges persist, including rising interest rates, project costs, and supply chain issues[3].
Deloitte's 2025 Renewable Energy Industry Outlook highlights the race to fill the resource gap as demand for clean energy outpaces supply. Utility-scale solar and wind capacity additions dominated new builds and expansions in 2024, with solar expected to rise by a record-breaking 38.4 GW to 128.2 GW and battery storage to rise by 14.9 GW to 30.9 GW[4].
Key trends to watch in 2025 include the strategic role of cleantech manufacturing, AI, and carbon industries in advancing economic competitiveness, national security, and resilience. Data center owners are leading the corporate shift toward renewable energy, with solar and wind capacity contracted to US data centers growing to nearly 34 GW through 2024[4].
In response to current challenges, industry leaders are focusing on advanced nuclear technologies, green hydrogen, long-duration energy storage, and advanced solar cell technology. Utilities are introducing new clean transition tariffs for commercial and industrial customers to finance deployment without impacting residential rates[4].
Recent deals and partnerships include the $1.45 billion loan to a solar manufacturer and the $1 billion contract for nuclear power supply. These developments underscore the industry's commitment to meeting rising power demand with clean energy solutions.
Compared to the previous reporting period, the clean energy industry is seeing increased momentum, driven by legislative wins and investments. However, significant obstacles remain, and the industry must continue to innovate and adapt to meet the growing demand for clean energy.
In conclusion, the clean energy industry is at a critical juncture, with recent market movements and deals shaping its future. Industry leaders are responding to challenges with innovative solutions, and the sector is poised for continued growth in 2025.
