The indices are designed to capture companies operating across distinct segments of technological and industrial development, spanning the space industry, the extraction, processing, and refining of critical materials, and the infrastructure supporting electricity transmission and distribution. The infrastructure and resources that underpin artificial intelligence and the energy transition are seeing rising demand. Electricity consumption from data centers grew by 17% in 2025 and is projected to roughly double from 485 TWh to 950 TWh by 20301. The supply of the minerals on which this infrastructure depends remains concentrated: excluding rare earths, the average share of the top refining country for key energy minerals rose to 72% in 2025, while investment in critical minerals fell by 9% in the same year.2 In parallel, the global space economy grew by 12% year-over-year to USD 686 billion in 2025, with commercial activity accounting for 79% of the total.
