Active Energy eyes rapid growth with new capacity as it acquires second project in Abu Dhabi

Active Energy Group PLC (AIM:AEG, OTCQB:ATGVF) CEO Paul Elliott talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s agreement to acquire a second energised grid connection asset that will take its secured capacity to about 13 MVA of grid capacity and how this development accelerates its growth strategy. Elliott explained that securing energised capacity significantly shortens the path to revenue generation, enabling the company to move much faster than traditional infrastructure buildouts. The company is now targeting a substantial expansion to 100 megawatts within the next 12 to 18 months, leveraging both acquisitions and modular data centre deployment. He highlighted that non-operational assets present a strategic advantage, allowing Active Energy to bypass legacy constraints and deploy solutions rapidly. Elliott noted that some sites could begin generating revenue “within a month,” underscoring the speed of execution now possible. The CEO also pointed to a strong acquisition pipeline driven by regional uncertainty, which has created opportunities to secure assets at attractive valuations. This environment could prove pivotal for scaling efficiently while maintaining a diversified portfolio of sites to reduce risk. On capital strategy, Elliott emphasised a disciplined approach to shareholder value, stating, “We’re focused on scaling the business in a way that builds long-term value, not just raising capital for the sake of it,” while ensuring alignment with strategic investors.
