Ara Partners, an investment company specializing in renewable energies, announces the purchase of Anesco Holdings, parent company of the Anesco Group.
This transaction is carried out through Ara Partners’ portfolio company Aksiom Services Group.

Ara Partners: almost 1.2GW of renewable assets under management

Anesco is one of the UK’s leading renewable energy companies.
The company develops, builds, maintains and operates green energy and energy efficiency projects.
The company has already developed and built over 115 solar parks and energy storage facilities.
Anesco was involved in the construction of the UK’s first subsidy-free solar farm.
In addition, its operations and maintenance department has almost 1.2 GW of renewable assets under management.
Charles Cherington, co-founder and managing partner of Ara Partners, is delighted:

“Anesco is an outstanding acquisition for Aksiom Services Group.”

A single carbon-neutral objective

The two companies share the same goals of moving towards a carbon-neutral world.
In other words, Ara Partners and Anesco are both familiar with sustainable development and renewable energy projects.
As Charles Cherington explains:

“Our focus is on accelerating decarbonization by investing in ambitious companies. This is the case with Anesco, whose energy efficiency and sustainable development are close to its heart.”

With this acquisition, the company expands its renewable assets.
