- Acciona, S.A. (ANA.MC) is a Spanish multinational company engaged in sustainable infrastructure development and management, providing engineering and construction services; water treatment and management; renewable energy generation, including wind, solar, and hydroelectric power; and transportation infrastructure such as highways, railways, and airports. The company offers integrated solutions across its segments, including energy transition services, urban services like waste management and public lighting, and social infrastructure projects encompassing hospitals, schools, and prisons. Founded in 1997 through the merger of Entrecanales y Távira and Cubiertas y MZOV, Acciona is headquartered in Alcobendas, near Madrid, Spain, and operates in more than 40 countries across Europe, North America, Latin America, Australia, and the Middle East, serving public sector clients, private corporations, and international development organizations.
In its core infrastructure business, Acciona delivers end-to-end project lifecycle services from design and construction to operation and maintenance under public-private partnership models; in water, it provides desalination, wastewater treatment, and distribution through brands like Acciona Agua; and in energy, it develops and operates over 10 GW of renewable capacity worldwide via Acciona Energía. The company targets key markets in sustainable development, focusing on net-zero transitions for utilities, municipalities, and industrial clients.
Recent developments include the spin-off of its energy division into Acciona Energía S.A. in 2021, which trades separately as ANE.MC and has pursued aggressive growth through 2023-2025 renewable project awards exceeding 5 GW in capacity across the US, Australia, and Europe; a strategic alliance with Brookfield Renewable in 2024 for joint development of green hydrogen projects; and acquisition of a majority stake in a US-based wind farm portfolio in late 2024. In 2025, Acciona secured major contracts for high-speed rail extensions in Saudi Arabia and water infrastructure in Chile, alongside launching its digital twin platform for asset optimization across global operations. These initiatives reflect the company's shift toward accelerating decarbonization services and expanding in high-growth emerging markets.
