Solar Energy

Solar energy has greatly exceeded even the most ambitious industry forecasts. Over the last few years, GoldenPeaks Capital has become a leading independent producer of renewable energy focusing on solar PV in Europe. We are the fastest-growing and largest owner-operator in Poland and Hungary.

“As the number of corporates and industrials demanding clean energy increases apace, it is expected that the critical demand for solar electricity in Europe – and particularly Eastern Europe – will soon greatly exceed supply. GoldenPeaks Capital has become a leading provider of green Private Power Purchase Agreements and is supporting an increasing number of Fortune 500 corporations' move toward net zero emissions.”

The full spectrum solution
Solar energy is an established asset class with negligible investment risk. GoldenPeaks Capital has a unique and rapidly expanding owner-operator infrastructure. We have a team of around 200 employees on the ground providing a full spectrum of expertise, from feasibility and scoping to development and management (via our affiliate, Mercer), to EPC and O&M services (via our affiliate, Spectris), and including all core entrepreneurial, finance, legal and management skills.

Technology & Benefits
Solar energy has several fundamental technological benefits over other renewables. For more details visit Spectris
Photovoltaic cells have been around for a long time and the technology and application is well-proven and relatively easy to understand. The experience curve drives costs ever lower and today’s efficiencies and economies of scale are considerable.
The sun has the potential to provide all the clean energy the earth will ever need. And the infrastructure and technology will one day exist to capture this. All that is needed is an uncompromised, environmentally and socially responsible roll-out. And fast.
Solar, combined with grid-balancing storage systems, owned and operated reliably, is by far the best solution available to industry for achieving the Net Zero targets. The technology also allows for economic installation in poorer communities, many of whom live in sunnier climates.

Fastest growing in our regions
Already in 2021 GoldenPeaks Capital became the largest PV solar owner-operator in Poland focusing on a diverse portfolio of 1-20MW projects. To accelerate its growth, GoldenPeaks Capital has now moved to high voltage large scale developments of up to 100+MW per site and is developing large scale battery storage systems across its portfolio.

GoldenPeaks Capital has further expanded into Hungary and successfully secured financing in the market through a unique transaction. Building on this momentum, the company is now expanding to more countries in Europe with similar potential, aiming to replicate its success and continue its leadership in the renewable energy sector.

Our Solar Supply Infrastructure

With so many companies committed to zero carbon footprints by 2050, it is essential that they infuse renewable electricity into their energy balances. Few large corporates can develop their own workable onsite renewable energy supplies, let alone at speed, and few energy suppliers can cater for big industry.

GoldenPeaks Capital provides contracted provision of clean electricity from its own project facilities and at a scale that can support larger corporate requirements. Poland and Hungary are huge manufacturing hubs for Western Europe, and GoldenPeaks Capital's operations there are perfectly located to assist them in reaching their emissions targets.

With the success of its operations in Poland and Hungary, GoldenPeaks Capital Energy is perfectly positioned to expand into other European countries. GoldenPeaks Capital is currently exploring opportunities where the demand for reliable and scalable renewable energy solutions is rapidly increasing. By leveraging our extensive experience and proven track record, we aim to partner with leading corporations in new markets to help them transition to sustainable energy sources. Our expansion strategy contributes significantly to Europe’s collective goal of reducing carbon emissions and combating climate change.

Growth & Potential
Currently, solar accounts for around 4.5% of worldwide electricity production, only 9% of which currently comes from renewables. But solar’s contribution is increasing every year and is projected to account for at least 50% of world electricity production by 2050, making it vital for achieving a net-zero emissions energy economy.
