North America
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.
Renewable energy generates about 20% of all U.S electricity and that percentage continues to grow. In 2022, solar and wind are expected to add more that 60% of the utility-scale generating capacity to the US power grid (46% from solar, 17% from wind)
Some states are particularly active in developing renewable energy such as Texas and Oklahoma.

Our ambition
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 solar 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) .
