Beyond being an independent solar energy producer, Amarenco wants to be a player in the decarbonization and transformation of our economic model.
Amarenco Group and SolarizEgypt announce the establishment of a new partnership in Egypt. This definitive agreement between both parties agrees that Amarenco shall acquire 74% of SolarizEgypt’s portfolio and co-develop 300MW of assets at an estimated budget of 4 billion Egyptian Pounds (255MUSD) in the next four years.

This acquisition and partnership will leverage both companies’ strong knowledge and expertise to provide the best-in-class services to the Egyptian energy sector.
