Delivering sustainable solar power across the world

Innovative advances in solar technology and development continue to increase the value added benefits of utility-scale solar like combining agricultural practices on land use through agrivoltaics, and enhancing local biodiversity.

We build, operate and partner with solar power projects in countries throughout Europe, Middle East and Africa, Americas, and Asia Pacific. Our platform is built on technical expertise, financial strength, and a commitment to safety and quality. From project development through to long-term asset management, we prioritise responsible land use, rigorous safety standards and efficient execution. We work closely with our partners to deliver projects with integrity and create lasting benefits for the regions in which we operate.

Sustainability

Our commitment to responsible development

Sustainability is one of our core values. We are taking action to drive the energy transition, decarbonise and address biodiversity loss through responsible development.

We are guided by our sustainability framework which focuses on three key pillars – energy, environment and people. Where appropriate, we aim to develop multi-use projects that integrate grazing and pollinator habitats and enhance ecosystems and biodiversity and improve circularity, while providing secure and sustainable long-term income for landowners.
