Our Sustainability Report 2025 Is Now Live

We are pleased to announce the official release of our new Sustainability Report! Staying the Course, Deepening Our Roots !

As the global context grows more complex and regulatory requirements — notably the CSRD — have seen their timelines eased or pushed back, we have taken a strong stance: maintaining our commitments without compromise.

“A tree does not grow only towards the sky. As it rises, its roots also spread and deepen, invisibly.”

Through this publication and the shared insights of our contributors, the report does more than measure our performance: it reminds us of the deeper meaning of our mission. Producing decarbonised energy is not enough for us; we choose to strengthen our foundations for the long term so that we can continue to act with impact, conviction and responsibility.

This edition resonates particularly strongly with the recent redefinition of our 5 core values: Pioneering Spirit, Commitment to Impact, Collaborative Unity, Human Ecology and Evolving Agility. These values guide our strategic decisions and shape our business model every day.

In this edition:

Our vision & strategic trade-offs, explained by our Governance, including why we are consolidating our transformation roadmap despite market uncertainties.

A transparent review of our environmental, social and governance (ESG) actions.

Our priority goals to consolidate our strategic pillars, build sustainable and responsible growth, and translate our values into long-term actionable solutions.

Amarenco has won the Best Impact Strategy Award

Amarenco remporte le Best Impact Strategy Award aux Tikehau Impact Club Awards !

Amarenco has won the Best Impact Strategy Award at the Tikehau Impact Club Awards! This accolade recognises our conviction – indeed, our very raison d’être – that generating renewable energy and regenerating ecosystems can go hand in hand. Five years ago, we launched our regeneration programme with one ambition: to go beyond simply reducing our environmental impacts and instead improve the health of the ecosystems that host our projects.

The jury praised the work we have done to integrate net positive ecological benefits into our business and turn them into a source of economic value. This is recognition of the potential of an approach that combines the energy transition, regeneration and business performance. Above all, this award is the result of a collective effort: that of our teams and an ecosystem of partners that has been built up and enriched over the years.

Thank you to Tikehau Capital for this initiative, as well as to Nathalia Millan and Björn Aarts, members of the judging panel. Congratulations also to the other finalists for their inspiring initiatives.

Amarenco acquires 100% of Énergie Développement

Amarenco acquires 100% of Énergie Développement, its long-standing joint venture with TotalEnergies Renouvelables France

With this transaction, Amarenco becomes the sole shareholder of this entity, which was established in 2017, and takes a further step forward in its development as a fully integrated European Independent Power Producer.

By taking full ownership of this multi-segment portfolio of solar assets, which is particularly well-established in the South-West, we are consolidating our position as an IPP and strengthening the predictability of our revenues.

This acquisition also marks the culmination of a successful partnership with TotalEnergies, Amarenco’s long-standing partner in the development of solar energy in France!

It is also a key step towards achieving our ambition: to reach, within 24 months, 1 TWh of annual generation, 1 GW of installed capacity and full structural financial independence.

Amarenco launches construction of Osmo

Amarenco launches construction of Osmo, a new 100 MW / 2-hour BESS project in France!
After Claudia, Osmo marks another major step in our commitment to energy storage and grid flexibility.

The energy transition is really about building the infrastructure needed to make the power system more stable, secure and resilient. Located between Os-Marsillon and Mourenx, in the Lacq industrial basin, Osmo is a 100 MW Lithium-Ion LFP battery energy storage project with a 2-hour capacity.

By investing for more than four years in these strategic infrastructures, Amarenco continues to anticipate the needs of the French electricity system and support RTE with essential services.

The project’s location was also a key choice. By developing on a former industrial site, close to existing infrastructure and with optimal grid connection conditions, Osmo helps limit the environmental footprint of the project while adding new value to an underused land area.

This project is supported by a strong ecosystem of industrial and local partners, and we are delighted to have finalized the financing of this project with our partner Société Générale and are now fully focused on launching its construction

With this closing, the Group confirms the acceleration of its energy storage project portfolio in France and across several European countries.

A huge thank you to our partners and internal teams for helping move forward this strategically important project!

Amarenco Vivescia Partnership

A strategic alliance serving local communities

We are pleased to announce this partnership, with the priority launch of 8 ground-mounted photovoltaic power plant projects representing a total cumulative capacity of 15 MWc on agricultural storage sites. This alliance is part of a strategic initiative aimed at regenerating natural and living spaces as part of our ECHO Program and energy transition efforts.

In practical terms, this first phase will enable the production of local renewable energy, directly aligned with local needs, while limiting soil artificialization thanks to the low land footprint of the proposed reversibility solutions.

We share with VIVESCIA a long-term vision: combining energy performance, territorial anchoring, and the transition toward agricultural and agro-industrial sectors. Thank you to the committed teams on both sides for their trust and mobilization around this structuring project!

Let’s talk about storage With ENEDIS

A day of strategic discussions with ENEDIS at our Saucats storage facility!

We were pleased to welcome the managers and members of the Executive Committee of Enedis Aquitaine Nord to Saucats, home to Claudia, one of Europe’s largest storage units, developed by Amarenco. It was a busy, productive day—and, above all, one that was closely aligned with current challenges.

Their feedback speaks for itself:

  • “Unanimously very positive” discussions
  • A better understanding of the role of storage in the power system
  • Transparent discussions on market realities, both in France and across Europe

Storage is a strategic lever for grid operators: it contributes to grid regulation, congestion relief, and, ultimately, the optimization of their day-to-day operations.

For ENEDIS, the challenge was to better understand the potential of services provided to the power system in relation to connection requests.

For AMARENCO, the challenge was to share our expertise, concretely demonstrating our mastery of these technologies.

A mission 100% accomplished!

Thank you to the Enedis teams for their commitment and the quality of our discussions, And thank you to our teams for their unwavering dedication
