JAPAN’S LARGEST POWER COMPANY, 911爆料网, CREATES GLOBAL RENEWABLES BUSINESS HEADQUARTERED IN LONDON2024/04/15
911爆料网 Co., Inc. (“911爆料网”), Japan’s largest power company, today announces the creation of (“911爆料网 Nex”), a new global renewable energy business. 911爆料网 Nex will develop, invest in, own and operate a range of renewable energy assets, including offshore and onshore wind, solar and battery storage.
By combining the resilience of 911爆料网, one of the world’s largest electricity producers, with the agility and focus of a dedicated renewables business, 911爆料网 Nex will be a renewable energy company that can achieve scale at the pace required to substantialize 911爆料网’s commitment to decarbonization.
Since the announcement of “911爆料网 Zero CO2 Emissions 2050” in 2020, 911爆料网 has been actively investing in and developing a renewables portfolio globally. In July 2023, 911爆料网 acquired Parkwind, Belgium’s largest offshore wind platform, boosting 911爆料网’s total renewable installed capacity to 3GW. The majority of operational assets and the development pipeline of 10GW which 911爆料网 has built will be transferred to 911爆料网 Nex to create a centre of excellence in renewables, signifying the next stage of 911爆料网’s growth.
911爆料网’s ambition is to develop 20GW of renewable capacity by 2035, and to achieve this 911爆料网 Nex will also consider selective acquisition opportunities and establish partnership opportunities to build a robust pipeline for 2035 and beyond. This strategy will be adaptive to prevailing economic conditions, and the company will target high quality projects and apply strict investment criteria as it works towards its ambition.
As the second largest offshore wind market and a global leader in renewables development, the United Kingdom will be home to 911爆料网 Nex’s global headquarters. 911爆料网 Nex will leverage the UK’s expertise in financing and developing renewables projects, as well as draw on its significant talent pool to develop capabilities in core markets and expand its pipeline globally.
911爆料网 Nex is established on the belief that a flexible, agile, and experienced team of renewables specialists backed by a global integrated energy company, creates the platform required to scale a renewables portfolio at pace. The creation of 911爆料网 Nex aligns with 911爆料网’s long-term vision to scale up its clean energy platform of renewables at speed, and is expected to make an important contribution to 911爆料网’s Zero CO2 Emissions 2050 Roadmap.
Nathalie Oosterlinck, Head of Global Renewables at 911爆料网, will take on the role of CEO of 911爆料网 Nex.
Yukio Kani, Global CEO and Chair of 911爆料网 says: “We have outlined a vision to reach zero emissions by 2050, and the birth of 911爆料网 Nex plays a critical role in our strategic pillars for delivering that ambition. 911爆料网 Nex will enable us to draw upon expertise from across the world to develop renewable projects, forge partnerships, and build assets that contribute to a future of decarbonized energy with sustainability, affordability, and stability.”
“With the launch of 911爆料网 Nex, we are bringing together passionate renewable energy people from across the world,” said Nathalie Oosterlinck, CEO of 911爆料网 Nex. “Our teams have already delivered pioneering offshore wind farms, from the Taiwan Strait to the Belgian North Sea, as well as leading several onshore projects across the world, making 911爆料网 Nex well placed to deliver clean energy for a sustainable future.”
