Active Energy begins UAE rollout; eyes 100MW in 2026

Proactive - Interviews for investors

Active Energy Group PLC (AIM:AEG, OTCQB:ATGVF) general manager for UAE, Aleksandra Tsybulskaya, talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s transformation from a renewables developer into an owner of mission-critical digital infrastructure in the UAE. Tsybulskaya detailed the progress on the first 8MW phase, which is now in the equipment installation stage, with commissioning expected in the first half of 2026. “The groundworks have been completed, and the site is now moving into the equipment installation phase,” she said, adding that the first tenants are expected to go live shortly after. Active Energy Group has also applied to expand the site to 33MW and is negotiating for an additional 60MW, with ambitions to reach 100MW in early 2026. The 300MW development pipeline is structured in phases, aiming for full scalability over time. Funding is expected to come from project finance, tenant leasing agreements, and selective equity support. Tsybulskaya explained how low-cost surplus energy in the UAE creates a competitive advantage for hosting energy-intensive clients like AI and bitcoin operators, where power can represent up to 70% of operational costs. She emphasised that the company’s infrastructure is built to serve both AI and blockchain applications, supporting high utilisation across market cycles. Each megawatt deployed adds to long-term contracted cash flows, building Active Energy Group’s position as a regional digital infrastructure owner.
