Americas
United States
The United States is a resource-rich country with abundant renewable energy resources. The amount available is 100 times that of the nation’s annual electricity need.
As of 2024, Renewable Power accounts for 24% of the total US operational power capacity. 52 GW of new generation capacity was brought online in 2024; solar, wind, and battery storage provided 49 GW (93%) of this capacity. “Over the previous five years, clean power averaged 75% of all new additions to the US grid.”
Some states are particularly active in developing renewable energy such as Texas and Oklahoma.
Our ambition in United State
The US Renewable market has matured and expanded rapidly over the past 10 years, focused on key technologies such as wind, solar and battery storage. The Akuo US strategy is centered on developing a diverse portfolio both in technology as well as geography. The short-term development is focused on hybrid solar or pure storage projects within Texas (ERCOT), the Midwest United States (MISO) and the South West Power Pool (SPP). The ambition is to aggressively pursue quality development opportunities and to secure land to allow for an annual target to submit three to five projects into various Regional Transmission Organizations (RTO).
Latin America
Despite having real potential in renewable energy, Latin America is still highly dependent on fossil fuels and hydropower, which is subject to major seasonal variations.
Latin America was the Akuo Group’s first step in geographical diversification, with the construction of three wind farms in Uruguay.
Akuo has been operating in the region since 2007, demonstrating the extent to which renewable energy is a solution for cutting carbon footprints and producing energy that is both inexpensive and in line with stringent environmental and social standards, as well as creating jobs and more robust, sustainable local economies.
Our business lines cover all our technical solutions, spanning the development, marketing, financing, construction and operation of a wide range of projects, from 2 MW to 400 MW.
Our goals in Latin America
Our goal in the Latin America region is to strive for swift, effective energy transition. With 15 years’ experience in countries with a highly differing degrees of maturity and grid development, our people have built up a broad diversity of expertise cutting-edge tools and resources to support the transition.
We’re keen to offer differentiated solutions to all territories, each with their own history, resources – and future.
Our people are our greatest asset! Their cutting-edge expertise, their cohesion, their diversity and their dedication make for a unique environment in which everyone can prosper. Our teams and our partners all join forces to deliver green, reliable and affordable energy for the future.
