About us
Battery storage is an essential enabler of the energy transition, helping to maximise the role of renewables while supporting the delivery of safe, secure, reliable energy.
As the world races towards net zero, demand for battery storage is increasing, with global capacity expected to increase seven times over to 650 GW by 2030.
Eku Energy has been established to meet this need, working to deliver the investment and projects at scale that will be critical to net zero.
The size and scale of our vision means we must act with courage and drive. We seek new ways of doing things, solving problems and acting decisively to secure a sustainable energy future for us all.
We strive to achieve zero harm to our people, assets and the communities around us. Our absolute priority is creating a safe working environment.
We can’t do this alone. Our success depends on our ability to build lasting, trusted relationships with each other, our stakeholders and the communities we operate in. Together we will deliver innovative solutions that make a positive impact on the world.
Our purpose-built team combines deep global expertise in financial and energy markets with specialist technical capabilities, including origination, development, system design, power markets and software optimisation.
Eku Energy is jointly owned by a Macquarie Asset Management managed fund and British Columbia Investment Management Corporation (BCI). With the backing of two global financial powerhouses, we aim to turn our vision into reality in our ambition to advance the clean energy transition.
