Amazon (AMZN) Shutters Its Wondery Podcast Studio and Lays Off Staff
Amazon (AMZN) is shutting down its Wondery podcast studio and laying off 110 employees as part of a reorganization of its audio division. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. In an internal memo to staff, Steve Boom, Amazon's vice president of audio, said the company is consolidating some Wondery units under its Audible audiobook and podcasting unit, and that Wondery's current CEO Jen Sargent is leaving her role. 'These changes will not only better align our teams as they work to take advantage of the strategic opportunities ahead but, even more crucially, will ensure we have the right structure in place to deliver the very best experience to creators, customers and advertisers,' reads the memo. Audio Ambitions The shutdown of Wondery comes nearly five years after Amazon acquired the podcast studio as part of a plan to expand its catalog of original audio content. The podcasting company made a name for itself with hit shows like 'Dirty John' and 'Dr. Death.' More recently, Wondery signed licensing deals with Jason and Travis Kelce's 'New Heights' podcast, along with Dax Shepard's 'Armchair Expert.' In the reorg, Amazon's podcasting unit will consolidate under Audible, and creator-led content will move to a new unit called 'creator services.' Amazon's audio ambitions face challenges from the growing popularity of video podcasts on rival Alphabet's (GOOGL) YouTube channel, which now hosts an increasing number of shows and programs. Is AMZN Stock a Buy? AMZN stock has a consensus Strong Buy rating among 45 Wall Street analysts. That rating is based on 44 Buy and one Hold recommendations assigned in the last three months. The average AMZN price target of $265.05 implies 23.42% upside from current levels.

Analysis-Europe's old power plants to get digital makeover driven by AI boom
By Forrest Crellin PARIS (Reuters) -Some of Europe's ageing coal and gas fired power plants can look forward to a more high-tech future as big tech players, such as Microsoft and Amazon, seek to repurpose them as data centres, with ready-made access to power and water. Companies such as France's Engie, Germany's RWE, and Italy's Enel are looking to benefit from a surge in AI-driven energy demand by converting old power sites into data centres and securing lucrative long-term power supply deals with their operators. The data centre option offers the utilities a way to offset the hefty costs of shutting down ageing power plants as well as potentially underwriting future renewable developments. Tech companies see these sites as a quick way to secure power grid connections and water cooling facilities, two big bottlenecks in the AI industry. "You have all the pieces that come together like ... water infrastructure and heat recovery," said Bobby Hollis, vice president for energy at Microsoft. Lindsay McQuade, EMEA energy director at Amazon , said she expected permitting for data centres to move faster at old sites, where a big chunk of infrastructure was already in place. Utilities can either lease the land or build and operate the centres themselves, securing long-term power contracts with tech firms, he said. The deals offer much more than just the sale of unused land as they include opportunities for stable, high-margin revenue, said Simon Stanton, head of Global Partnerships and Transactions at RWE. "It's more about the long-term relationship, the business relationship that you get over time that enables you to de-risk and underwrite your infrastructure investments," Stanton said. Most of EU's and Britain's 153 hard coal and lignite plants are set to close by 2038 to meet climate targets, joining the 190 plants that have closed since 2005, based on data from NGO Beyond Fossil Fuels, which campaigns to accelerate closure of coal-fired power stations. NEW REVENUE STREAMS The economics of data centre deals can be compelling for the utilities, which can negotiate a long-term power supply contract to underwrite future renewable developments. Tech firms are paying premiums of up to 20 euros per megawatt-hour for low-carbon power, said Gregory LeBourg, environmental program director at French data centre operator OVH. Data centre power demands can be anywhere from a couple hundred megawatts to a gigawatt or more. So the annual 'green premium' - the extra price paid for low-carbon electricity - on top of a base market price could potentially translate into a long-term contract worth hundreds of millions or even billions of euros, based on Reuters' calculations. One long-term option is to build an "energy park" and connect the data centre to a new renewable development, relying on the grid for emergencies, but this is a relatively new concept, industry sources said. Engie wants to double its installed renewable energy by 2030 from the current 46 GW. The group has identified 40 sites globally that it is marketing to data centre developers, including coal and gas plants that could be converted, said Sebastien Arbola, who runs the company's data centre business. One is the Hazelwood coal plant in Australia, which closed in 2017. He declined to disclose details of other sites, saying they are mostly in Europe. Other utilities, including Portugal's EDP, EDF, and Enel said they are also marketing old gas and coal sites for new data centre development. "It's business model diversification," said Michael Kruse, managing partner at consultancy Arthur D. Little. Utilities are creating a new type of business and also new revenue streams, he said. 'SPEED TO POWER' The appeal for tech companies is speed. Grid connection delays in Europe can stretch over a decade, while repurposed plants potentially offer speedier access to power and water. "You actually have the opportunity to move faster," said Hollis at Microsoft. Data centre capacity in Europe is much lower than the United States and Asia due to longer grid connection times and slower permitting, data from Synergy Research Group showed. The data centre operators can choose to buy the renewable power they need directly from the utilities in the form of long-term contracts or purchase from the power market. Real estate firm JLL is working on several conversions, including a 2.5 GW data centre at a former German coal plant and four sites in Britain for a major tech client, said Tom Glover, who works on data centre transactions at JLL. Developers do not often disclose more detail about data centre projects, including their clients, for security reasons. Britain's Drax is also seeking a partner to develop unused parts of an old coal site in Yorkshire, now partially converted to biomass. It offers access to unused water cooling equipment, said Richard Gwilliam, Drax's carbon programme director. Drax is offering a "behind-the-meter" deal where the power plant will provide direct power to the data centre and it can pull from the grid if necessary. EDF has also chosen developers for two sites at gas power plants in central and eastern France. Tech companies are willing to pay more for projects that can start up sooner as they vie for market share in a rapidly growing industry, said Sam Huntington, director of research at S&P Global Commodity Insights. "Speed to power is just the phrase we keep hearing over and over again," he said.

Australia's internet network signs Amazon satellite service
By Byron Kaye SYDNEY (Reuters) -The Australian government-owned internet network hired Amazon's untested startup satellite service to provide connectivity to people who cannot access its terrestrial network rather than Elon Musk's Starlink. From next year, low-Earth orbit satellites owned by Amazon's Project Kuiper will start replacing two Australian government-owned satellites due for decommissioning in 2032, NBN Co and Amazon said in a joint statement on Tuesday. The deal, for which financial terms were not disclosed, is designed to give high-speed internet to some 300,000 homes and businesses that NBN's terrestrial network does not reach. The thousands of low-Earth orbit satellites are connected to each other through optical links and communicate with antennas and other connection points on the ground. The deal represents a missed opportunity for Starlink, by far the world's biggest provider of such network services and which already has more than 250,000 customers in Australia, according to industry data. Australia's two biggest telecoms providers sell Starlink residential connection dishes and some government entities, including the Australian Electoral Commission, also have contracts with the company. Starlink, a unit of Musk's SpaceX rocket company, now has 8,000 fast-orbiting satellites since it began launching them in 2019, while Amazon's service has just 78 since its first launch in April. NBN and Amazon said Project Kuiper would ultimately have more than 3,200. NBN said the decision followed a rigorous procurement process, but did not say why it had chosen the Amazon service. Starlink was not immediately available for comment. "It is true that Amazon Kuiper has not launched services yet in Australia or globally, but they are reportedly pumping in about $15 billion into that programme," said Gavin Williams, chief development officer for regional and remote services at NBN. "We have every confidence that we've got a partner in Kuiper that will do what they say they're going to do," he added in an interview. Asked if Musk's ownership of Starlink played a part in the decision, Williams said only that NBN supplied critical infrastructure with regulatory and legal obligations and "technical, operational, and commercial imperatives that fall into that consideration were contemplated and ventilated through the procurement process."
