Shell and Eneco secured the right to build the 759 megawatt wind farm in the North Sea last July and Amazon said it would now purchase over 380 MW of its output to power its operations in Europe."

I think at some point antitrust actions may find their way to Amazon's doorstep.

They’re buying electricity as a customer to power their operations. Anti trust wouldn’t apply
SFC Melvin Brandenburg
SFC Thomas Foreman - You are right about this electricity purchase. I'm saying if they are using that much power, and they are doing the kind of business they are doing, the EU has been known to use anti trust action to shake them down, like they did with Microsoft, Apple, and Google.
