ACCIONA Energy is the biggest global energy company operating exclusively in the renewable energy sector, present in over 20 countries on five continents. It works significant with five technologies: wind, solar photovoltaic, solar thermal, hydroelectricity and biomass.
The company operates almost 9,000 Megawatts (MW) of own capacity, annually producing some 21 Terawatt-hours (TWh) of emission-free electricity, the equivalent of consumption by over six million homes. It also develops projects for third parties, for whom it has installed almost 2,000 MW.
Thanks to its experience of over 20 years in the renewable energy sector, the company offers reliable and efficient solutions based on the most advanced technologies.
The company also markets electricity of 100% renewable origin in the electricity markets and through bilateral contracts with large customers, with special focus on corporations that want to reduce their carbon footprint.
Based on its wide-ranging experience as a wind power operator, the company developed its own wind turbine-generator technology via ACCIONA Windpower, which capped its success by agreeing to merge with the German company Nordex in 2016, creating a global leader in turbine manufacturing. In parallel, ACCIONA became the biggest shareholder in Nordex, thus maintaining its presence throughout the wind energy value chain.
ACCIONA Energy is a global leader in the promotion, construction, operation and maintenance of wind facilities, with more than 20 years of experience in the sector. The combination of its leadership and knowledge of the sector have established ACCIONA Energy as a global provider of products and services in all aspects of wind energy. They have installed more than 7,000 MW in property and nearly 1,500 additional MW for clients.

ACCIONA Energy is linked to the upgrading of small hydroelectric plants with decades of operation and leveraging their full value; it also has a long and successful history of building new plants and evaluating the resource in design, construction and O&M. The major hydroelectric generation park of the company, estimated at 888 MW, places this technology in second place of installed power after wind energy.
ACCIONA Energy has extensive experience in the field of biomass, both in terms of fuel supply logistics and the operation of plants which produce electricity. ACCIONA Energy has three fully operational biomass plants, all of which stand as a benchmark in biomass-fueled power generation totaling 61 MW located in Sangüesa (30 MW), Briviesca (16 MW) and Miajadas (15 MW).
Thousands of MW currently being developed or undergoing administrative proceedings; present in 46 countries and with regulatory experience in more than 30 countries. Fully acquainted with finance mechanisms and co-investment solutions, and additional development services (WTG sales, EPCs, O&M, etc.).
Over 10,000 MW in renewables, in own projects and for third parties. An industry benchmark in construction methodologies and has set the bar in the wind power sector. A pioneering force in integrating the environment variable in projects.
ACCIONA Energy has 9,000 MW of fully-operational renewables facilities currently on its books. We are a trailblazer in tech solutions related to grid-connection of renewables, adaptation to power peaks and dips, and extremely accurate prediction models.
