The David among the Goliaths

WE have been part of the energy transition since 2007. With a reputation as an early market entrant, WE have achieved significant milestones in an industry dominated by major utilities and institutional investors.
First mover advantage

Our team developed the first unsubsidised Solar PV project in Europe in 2018, and then developed the first major scale Solar PV scale project in Portugal in 2021. Scale will be constantly overtaken, but being first reflects thespirit within our team.
Powered by synergy

WE have evolved through effective and lasting collaboration with partners. There’s great value to be created when we combine our own strengths with others who share our vision for a sustainable future.

Charging up for the future.

In the next phase, WElink Energy will deliver a 4 GW pipeline of Solar PV, Wind, Storage, and Hybrid projects, expanding across Europe and Sub Saharan Africa in utility scale and C&I sectors. With a portfolio exceeding 1 GW, we're now accelerating development with a remarkable 4 GW pipeline.
