Caribbean: TotalEnergies Expands its Partnership with AES from LNG to
Renewable Energy
* TotalEnergies expands its long-standing LNG partnership with AES on renewable
and battery storage in the Caribbean
* TotalEnergies has purchased 50% of AES renewable portfolio in the Dominican
Republic, following a previous acquisition of 30% in AES’ Puerto Rican
assets
* The combined 1.5 GW portfolio will produce 2.5 TWh/y of renewable electricity
TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE) announces the closing of its
acquisition of a 50% stake in the solar, wind and Battery Energy Storage
Systems (BESS) portfolio of AES Dominicana Renewables Energy. This deal
follows TotalEnergies’ 2024 acquisition of a 30% share in AES solar and
battery assets currently under construction in Puerto Rico. The combined
portfolio now exceeds 1.5 GW of renewable energy and BESS capacity across the
Caribbean.
These transactions advance TotalEnergies' multi-energy strategy in a region
where it is a key player in the liquefied natural gas (LNG) value chain.
Dominican Republic: TotalEnergies acquires 50% of AES renewables portfolio
AES’ renewables portfolio includes over 1 GW of contracted wind, solar, and
BESS projects, of which 410 MW is already operational or under construction,
supplying electricity under long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). The
portfolio also includes over 500 MW of solar and wind capacity in development,
alongside BESS projects, which will be integrated into solar plants to
mitigate intermittency and enhance grid stability.
This acquisition will allow TotalEnergies to expand its renewables business in
the Dominican Republic, where the Company already has a partially solarized
network of 184 service stations, natural gas distribution and a 103 MW solar
plant under construction.
Puerto Rico: TotalEnergies already holds 30% of a portfolio of AES renewables
The AES’ renewables portfolio includes 485 MW of contracted solar and BESS
projects, comprising 200 MW of solar and 285 MW/1,140 MWh of BESS projects
currently under construction.
After acquiring 30% of these assets in 2024, TotalEnergies is pursuing
deployment of its multi-energy strategy on the island, where it is already
active in the fuel, lubricants, and aviation sectors, and operates a network
of 200 service stations between Puerto Rico and the island of St Thomas.
“We are pleased to expand our multi-energy strategy through this partnership
with AES, focusing on renewables and battery storage in a region where
TotalEnergies is already a leading supplier of LNG, notably for power
generation. Since 2018, we have been supplying LNG to AES’s subsidiaries in
Panama and the Dominican Republic”, said Stéphane Michel, President of Gas,
Renewables & Power at TotalEnergies. “These new transactions will
contribute to our targets of 35 GW of gross renewable capacity by 2025 and
over 100 TWh of electricity production by 2030.”
“We are excited to join forces with TotalEnergies as we diversify the
island’s energy mix. The proceeds from this transaction will be reinvested
in AES Dominicana, to grow our renewables footprint”, said Juan Ignacio
Rubiolo, AES Executive Vice President & President, Energy Infrastructure
and Leader of International Markets.
