Amp Energy is a global clean energy developer that builds and manages solar, wind, and battery storage assets. Founded in 2009 in Toronto, the company has grown from a small project developer into a platform managing a multi-gigawatt portfolio of operating and development-stage projects across Canada, the United States, Japan, India, Australia, and the United Kingdom.
The business model spans the full project lifecycle — site origination, permitting, engineering, construction management, financing, and long-term operations. Amp’s software platform, Amp X, handles real-time energy management, grid optimization, and trading for its assets. The platform uses machine learning to forecast generation, optimize battery dispatch, and maximize revenue across wholesale energy markets, capacity markets, and ancillary services.
Amp’s pipeline exceeds 10 GW of renewable generation and storage projects globally. The company has secured significant investment from institutional partners including Carlyle Group, which provides capital for project development and acquisition. Unlike pure-play developers that sell projects after construction, Amp typically retains ownership, building long-term cash flows from operating assets. The team has grown to over 500 employees with offices in Toronto, New York, London, Sydney, Tokyo, and Hyderabad. Amp stands out for its hybrid approach — combining physical infrastructure development with proprietary software and trading capabilities that extract maximum value from each megawatt deployed.
