Google's new initiatives for 2025: From AI, hydropower to the new face of the internet




It's not every day that a single company simultaneously changes our worlds of search, energy and cyber security. But in July 2025, Google is doing something similar.


From AI tools to a $3 billion clean energy deal, Google has made it clear the future isn't just around the corner, it's already begun.

Let's take a look at some of the most recent and powerful announcements from Google:


$3 billion hydropower deal – clean energy for AI



Google, along with Brookfield Asset Management, has signed the largest corporate hydropower deal in history. This will provide Google with nearly 3 gigawatts of renewable energy.

Why? Because Google's AI data centers require a lot of electricity, and this deal will power them with green energyThis move is not only good for the environment, but is also an example of the balance between technology and nature.
