RES

At RES, we are dedicated to maximising the benefits renewable energy projects bring to local communities. In the Nordics, our Powerbank initiative provides funding for community projects from the very first day of a renewable energy project and continues throughout its lifetime. These funds support local development and create a better, more sustainable future for those living near our projects. Through this scheme, we supported the Näshulta Fire Brigade’s Fellowship Association - one of Sweden’s first voluntary fire brigades - in their mission to promote inclusion and diversity. The funding contributed to renovating their station’s facilities, including creating a dedicated women’s changing room.

“Navigating the complexities of global energy markets requires both agility and a deep understanding of local dynamics. At RES, we combine extensive global expertise with a tailored approach to regional needs, ensuring our projects are impactful and sustainable.” This week, Adriano Garcia Piquero, our Global Head of O&M Services, joined Juan Manuel González Serna, Vice President of Iberdrola, for a panel discussion at the VIII Business Forum, Export Your Value, in Albacete. The event, organised by Globalcaja and La Tribuna de Albacete, focused on strategies to strengthen regional contributions to the global economy - a theme that resonates with our commitment to fostering local partnerships and delivering long-term benefits for communities. With a presence in 24 countries and a team of 4,500 experts worldwide, we are united by a shared vision for a cleaner, more sustainable energy future. Together, we are driving innovation and delivering solutions that transcend borders.

Juan Gutierrez, CEO Global Services, recently spoke with João Montenegro from leading business publication BNamericas about our growing services business across Latin America. With a strong portfolio spanning Brazil, Chile, and Mexico, we’re focused on expanding our operations and maintenance (O&M) services by targeting existing projects, and building our asset management capabilities to drive value for our clients. To do this we also recently appointed our new Regional Director, Renato Rafael Machado dos Santos. Key highlights from the interview include: ✅ Latin America’s renewable energy sector is growing apace, and RES is at the forefront with expertise and innovative digital solutions. ✅ Brazil, Chile, and Mexico offer immense potential, particularly in wind and solar services. ✅ Our ambitious goal: to double the size of our LatAm business within 3–5 years.

With winter fast approaching in the northern hemisphere, keeping turbines spinning is a top priority. In Germany, our Services team has implemented an innovative solution to prevent ice buildup on wind turbine blades, enhancing site safety and asset efficiency. At a wind farm in the Black Forest, the team introduced preventative blade heating - a proactive measure to keep blades ice-free and ensure smooth operations. Previously, turbines were shut down for extended periods to de-ice the blades. Now, with heating activated during operation, ice-related downtime has been reduced by approximately 50%. 🔗 Read the case study - link in the comments. #PowerForGood #Innovation #WeatherMaintenance #Blades

This week at the #G20 Summit in Rio de Janeiro, the UK Prime Minister launched the Global Clean Power Alliance, with the UK and Brazil co-leading its first Mission. This landmark initiative brings together 12 countries to accelerate global collaboration between developed and developing nations, tackling critical barriers to clean energy deployment.   We welcome this strengthened commitment to the global energy transition and are excited to see participation from key markets such as Brazil, Chile, and Australia—regions where we are expanding our services across wind, solar, BESS, and green hydrogen.   Latin America is a growth region for RES, with significant pipeline opportunities in Mexico, Brazil, and Chile. These, along with our significant portfolio in Australia, will continue to fuel the next phase of clean energy development.   With over 27GW of renewable energy projects delivered globally and 41GW of operational assets supported in our 40+ year history, we’re proud to play a role in advancing clean power solutions worldwide.   We look forward to seeing how the Alliance’s work will open new opportunities to deliver clean energy at scale. https://lnkd.in/d2cNUpdJ #RenewableEnergy #CleanPowerAlliance

Vivid debate around the cost and profitability predictions for #offshorewind at Norwegian Offshore Wind's event this morning. My key points being that * Noone holds the crystal ball, but based on more than twenty years' experience developing offshor wind around the world, RES is confident that cost will continue to decrease, including for #floating #offshorewind * Maturity and cost reduction for new technologies is pendent on volume and scale. Onshore wind and solar saw 70% and 90% cost reduction respectively over the past decade. More projects will bring costs down. * Norway has a unique position as an early mover in floating wind, and decades of offshore experience that can be brought to bear. Developing a home market means jobs for Norwegian industry and opportunities to build new export indsutries. *Multiple delays and mixed signals from Government about Norway's ambitions for OW adds unnecessary risk to the market and may scare away international developers. As a result, you may actually get less competition and higher prices than obtained in other markets. *Let't not forget why we do offshore wind in the first place: The climate crisis requires radical action. Even in Norway, with all our hydropower, 50% of all energy consumption is based on fossil fuels. We need more, renewable power, and offshore wind will surely be part of the solution. Doing nothing is simply too pricy.

We're proud to announce the sale of the Elmacik Wind Energy Project, a 70MWe development in Kırklareli Province in Türkiye, to a leading Turkish renewable energy investor. With an investment of $77 million, Elmacik is set to begin commercial operations in late 2025, contributing significantly to Türkiye’s renewable energy landscape and transition goals. But our work doesn't stop there. We’re proud to enter a 140MW asset management agreement with the investor, providing analysis and optimisation services for Elmacik and their existing 74.2MW of wind assets. This milestone reflects our commitment to developing projects which deliver long-term value for customers and advance clean energy and sustainability across the globe. #RenewableEnergy #WindPower #Sustainability #Türkiye #RES

We are delighted Bekevar Wind Farm has officially opened! The 200MW project, jointly owned by Innagreen Investments and Cowessess First Nation, will provide the equivalent of 100,000 homes with clean, sustainable electricity each year. CEO of RES in the Americas Andre Cangucu said: “With our hands-on work through the development and construction phases of the project, RES has a vested interest in its long-term success. As an industry-leading service provider, we are committed to providing exceptional O&M and asset management services to owners Innagreen and Cowessess First Nation while continuously delivering reliable, clean and cost-effective energy to the Saskatchewan grid and the utility customers it serves.” Situated in the rural municipalities of Hazlewood, Kingsley, and on Cowessess First Nation reserve land, this project is an example of how commercial energy companies and local communities can work together to achieve decarbonisation in Canada and deliver local economic investment.  Read more - link in comments below. #PowerForGood

We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve been ranked as the world’s second-largest solar O&M operator by prestigious consultancy, Wood Mackenzie.   Our journey from 875 MW in 2022 to a maintained 16.5 GW capacity in 2024 speaks to our continued drive to scale renewable energy solutions globally.   And we’re not just expanding capacity—we’re creating a global clean energy network that supports complex, large-scale projects across 24 countries. With the integration of Ingeteam's renewable service division earlier this year, we’ve strengthened our capacity in markets including LATAM, the U.S., and Europe.   Read more here https://bit.ly/3OcRUT2 #RESGroup #SolarOM #CleanEnergy #RenewableEnergy #Sustainability #WoodMackenzie #Solar
