More than 10 years ago, Akuo Energy bet on renewable energies, with the strong conviction that ecology and long-term economic growth are inseparable. This observation, now shared by public and private actors in the international community, took concrete form in the Paris Agreement of December 12, 2015. While awareness of the ecological need is now anchored in the minds of political actors and economic, it is now time to take tangible actions for the environment.
This is why Akuo Energy is working alongside the Paris City Hall and Parisian companies to bring this commitment to the climate to the highest level. The economic and ecological transition is played out at the local level, for a global impact. With its territorial commitment, Akuo Energy takes full part in the city’s Climate Plan by initiating concrete actions and projects to maximize the local positive impact.
