Investments Strategy
The group’s investment strategy includes the development of new resources and ways for the production or transmission of electricity at European level. Thus, the group aims to develop a series of power lines between a number of European countries and allow this way strategic transfers between their energy systems with as few intermediaries as possible.
At the same time, AIK Energy intends to build in the coming years a series of wind farms in the countries where it already owns subsidiaries. Another target is the CO2 storage area.
