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.
