NextStream Signs Agreement with Serena for Exclusive Use of Wind Power in Data Centers. Starting in 2026, the project strengthens decarbonization and expands the supply of clean electricity in the digital sector.
NextStream officially announced, on November 11, a strategic partnership that promises to transform its energy matrix in Latin America. The company has closed an agreement with the multinational Serena to ensure the exclusive supply of wind power for its data centers, in a move that strengthens the transition to renewable sources in digital infrastructure.
The contract is part of the “Power to Tech” program and will begin operating in 2026. All electricity will come from the Assuruá Wind Complex, located in the municipalities of Gentio do Ouro and Xique-Xique, in Bahia, a region known for its high wind productivity and the rapid expansion of the sector.
The First Phase Includes the Tamboré Campus in São Paulo
Although the contract has international scope, the first implementation phase in Brazil is set: the Tamboré campus in São Paulo will be the first to receive the clean energy generated in the Northeast. NextStream states that, starting from this initiative, its corporate clients will have greater availability of electricity from renewable sources.

According to the company, the partnership with Serena reinforces its modernization and sustainability strategy, in line with global commitments to reduce emissions and with the ESG goals adopted by large companies.
Greener Data Centers to Meet Growing Technology Demand
NextStream operates in five countries in Latin America — Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Mexico, and Peru — and has been continuously updated to meet increasingly intense loads. Technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, machine learning, and the Internet of Things increase the need for robust and energy-efficient structures.
Thus, the dedicated supply of wind power represents a direct response to the demands of this new scenario. Additionally, the company claims that this partnership puts its data centers in a prominent position in the race for decarbonization in the sector, a movement already established in the United States, Europe, and Asia.
Serena Brings Global Experience in Wind and Solar Power Generation
Serena, responsible for supplying electricity, has been active for over 20 years in the development of large renewable energy projects. Its current installed capacity is sufficient to supply approximately 4.2 million households, demonstrating a strong presence in the energy infrastructure market.
For NextStream, working with a supplier of this size means ensuring predictability, security, and stability in energy consumption — essential points for a sector that demands continuous and highly available operation.
The company has consistently invested in expanding its infrastructure. In Brazil, it began operations in 2023 after acquiring assets from Telefónica. In parallel, it has progressed with the incorporation of units from Nabiax in the United States and structures from Asterion in countries such as Chile, Argentina, Mexico, and Peru.
This movement has strengthened its regional presence and significantly expanded its capacity to serve corporate clients. Today, NextStream is seen as one of the leading references in data centers in Latin America, thanks to the investment from the Actis fund, a specialist in digital infrastructure.
Starting in 2026, the company’s data centers are expected to operate with a cleaner, more efficient matrix ready to meet the rising demand driven by digital transformation.
