U.S. Clean Energy Commitments Hit 2025 High as Corporate Buyers Drop 40%

Summary
U.S. companies set a new record for clean energy purchase commitments in 2025 even as the number of buyers announcing deals fell 40% from 2024, according to CEBA.
CEBA said the market is shifting toward more contracted capacity from fewer participants, pointing to continued demand but a narrower buyer base.
Early 2026 data still show strong momentum in corporate contracted clean energy capacity, suggesting large buyers are sustaining deal volume despite growing market challenges.
The split between record commitments and fewer buyers highlights a tougher corporate procurement environment even as overall clean energy demand remains resilient.
