France's Veolia Environnement plans to nearly double revenue from artificial intelligence industries to €1 billion by 2030. The environmental services company will expand offerings to meet growing sector demands.

Veolia, a major player in waste management and environmental services, is positioning itself to capitalize on AI's rapid expansion. The company projects revenue from AI-related industries will reach €1 billion ($1.2 billion) by the end of the decade, nearly doubling current levels. The shift reflects mounting infrastructure and operational needs across the AI sector. Data centers, chip manufacturing, and AI development facilities require substantial environmental services, waste management, and resource optimization—core competencies for Veolia. The French company's strategy aligns with broader industry trends as AI deployments intensify globally. Major tech firms investing heavily in infrastructure development need reliable partners for facility management and sustainability compliance. Veolia's €1 billion target underscores how traditional sectors are adapting to capture opportunities in emerging technology markets. The company joins a growing list of established firms extending services into AI-supporting infrastructure.
