Actis acquires significant stake in Omega Energia

Actis, a global investor in sustainable infrastructure, has acquired a stake in Omega Energia (Omega), one of the largest pure renewable energy generation companies in Latin America, and signed a shareholder agreement with its founders to join the controlling block.

Omega, a leading player in the renewable energy space in Brazil, has a decade long history of building, acquiring and operating wind, solar and hydro projects across the country. The company has grown its operating capacity seven-fold since its IPO in 2017, reaching 1.9 GW today.

Actis will provide deep sector expertise and fresh equity capital to support the development of a proprietary growth pipeline to establish Omega as a leader in the Energy Transition space across the Americas.

The Omega acquisition, the first Actis Energy 5 investment in the Americas, was structured as a private investment in public equity, involving the negotiation of governance rights to join the controlling shareholders in the Board and the acquisition of shares through both secondary and primary capital tranche transactions.
