- Business
- Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. is a Canadian-based, diversified international energy and utility enterprise, primarily focused on regulated assets. The company manages a portfolio of electric, natural gas, and water utility systems, alongside certain generation and transmission operations. Its business activities are primarily structured around two main groups: the Regulated Services Group and the Hydro Group. The Regulated Services Group, operating under the Liberty brand, encompasses a diverse array of rate-regulated utilities located across 13 U.S. states, one Canadian province, Bermuda, and Chile. Through these operations, it delivers essential electricity, natural gas, and water distribution and wastewater collection services to over 1.2 million customer connections. This segment now represents the core focus of the company following a strategic pivot in January 2025, which saw the divestiture of most of its non-regulated renewable energy business. The remaining Hydro Group maintains ownership and operation of hydroelectric power generation facilities, predominantly situated in Canada. Established in 1988, Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. is headquartered in Oakville, Ontario, Canada. The company's strategy emphasizes operational excellence, growth within its regulated footprint, and a strong commitment to sustainability, including a goal for net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
