ACEN Australia
ACEN Australia is the platform representing ACEN’s renewable energy assets in Australia. It includes several solar, wind, battery and pumped hydro projects across New South Wales, Tasmania, Victoria and South Australia in development and construction. New England Solar, the first of these projects is expected to be in operation by the end of 2023. With 40+ employees and growing, our people are located in Tasmania, New South Wales and Victoria. A partner of UPC Renewables since 2018, ACEN (formerly AC Energy) increased its ownership in UPC\AC Renewables in 2021 to be 100% by early 2023. This acquisition marks a strategic pivot for ACEN, as the company embarks on its first wholly owned development and operations platform outside of the Philippines. While the UPC\AC Renewables name and brand is changing, its highly capable Australian team remains the same. ACEN’s strong Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance underpins its interactions with its employees and partners, the communities we are part of and the environment that we all share. The Australian team will continue its work in contributing to Australia’s transition to a clean energy future.
