BUSINESS MODEL

Our business model provides a disciplined and structured framework for the identification, funding, creation, management, and financial optimisation of our projects.

Energy transition

  • Generating affordable renewable energy and desalinated water.
  • Generating capital for stakeholders and future growth.

The four stages of our model are:

  • Develop Identifying and developing opportunities which are critical assets in strong growth markets and are long-term contracts with high-quality counterparties and resilient cash flows.
  • Invest Structuring and obtaining finance for projects whereby we are lead investor with a significant stake and de-facto control and are scalable investment platforms.
  • Operate Operating project assets safely and efficiently, to the highest global standards, through NOMAC, wholly-owned subsidiary of ACWA Power, using economies of scale and synergies.
  • Optimise Optimising financial returns through efficient capital structures and refinancing and capital recycling with sell-downs or divestments.

The business model typically caters to the entire lifecycle of a project.
