Our Story - Achelous Energy

Founders’ story.

From coalface to c-suite.

When it comes to green renewables, we’ve seen how to do it differently.

‍

Our previous careers in the oil and gas sector have given us invaluable practical and c-suite experience in offshore energy, particularly when it comes to delivering Engineering Procurement Construction & Installation (EPCI) projects in this sector.

‍

Engineers by background, we have taken large, complex products all the way from drawing board to fabrication, installing them in some of the world’s harshest marine environments.

‍

We have now worked together side-by-side in offshore engineering for over 15-years. Both of us have seen first-hand what works, what doesn’t work, and what is actually needed to generate clean, consistent, sustainable electricity that does good.

Green, affordable energy for everyone, everywhere.

Our team encompasses structural, mechanical and electrical engineering, naval architecture and CAD experts to bring cutting-edge technology to sites wherever there is flowing water.
‍
We work in rivers and tidal areas, from the UK to the Mekong, in urban environments and in (very, very) remote regions, and with both local communities and big corporates.

Universal clean power.

Everyone deserves to have access to electricity. In the West, we take it for granted that we can walk into a room and switch on a light. But 640 million people can't do that. At the same time, electricity consumption for those that can will treble by 2050.

Everyone needs more power.

We're here to make sure it's green.

UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals

At Achelous, we support the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Our vision and mission as a business is directly aligned with many of the goals and we’re proud to be developing technology that generates and distributes green, affordable energy for everyone, everywhere.
