About Altus Power:

Altus Power is a national leader in clean energy, generating renewable power where it’s needed most. Based in Stamford, Connecticut, we develop, own and operate solar energy systems, battery storage and electric vehicle charging from coast-to-coast. Altus transforms underutilized spaces, like warehouse rooftops, parking canopies and brownfields, into productive clean energy assets. Since 2009, Altus has grown to own and operate more than 1 gigawatt of solar producing projects across 25 states, serving more than 500 enterprises and more than 36,000 community solar subscribers.

Our ability to scale is backed by strategic partnerships with industry leaders like Blackstone and Goldman Sachs and we are well-capitalized to drive growth in markets with supportive clean energy policies. We’re in the process of being acquired by TPG through its TPG Rise Climate Infrastructure strategy – an exciting chapter that will enable us to accelerate our mission of expanding access to clean electric power.
