Company Description
Altus Power, historically trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol AMPS, is described in public disclosures as a commercial-scale provider of clean electric power. The company focuses on solar electric power generation within the utilities sector and is based in Stamford, Connecticut. According to recent company statements, Altus Power serves commercial, industrial, public sector and Community Solar customers by originating, developing, owning and operating locally sited solar generation, energy storage and charging infrastructure across the United States.
Earlier descriptions of Altus Power’s activities characterize the business as deploying capital to build and operate clean energy systems on commercial properties, schools and municipal buildings. The electricity generated from these systems is sold to the host, with the host not making an upfront investment. These systems are described as using proven technologies and being built to generate stable and sustainable cash flows and returns, lowering energy costs for hosts while reducing carbon emissions and reliance on fossil fuels. Altus Power has also been described as investing in, trading and structuring portfolios of renewable energy certificates, carbon offsets and other renewable attributes.
More recent news releases emphasize Altus Power’s role as a commercial-scale solar and Community Solar provider. The company reports a portfolio of solar assets across multiple U.S. states, delivering locally generated electricity to organizations that seek to manage rising energy costs and meet growing power demand. Its projects include rooftop and ground-mounted solar installations that serve a variety of customers, such as public sector entities, sports facilities and distribution centers. These projects are described as providing power at discounted rates relative to utility-provided power and as contributing to reduced carbon emissions over their lifespans.
Altus Power highlights its ability to originate and acquire solar projects at different stages of development. Public statements describe acquisitions of operational ground-mounted solar portfolios serving public sector clients, as well as development-stage Community Solar projects that are expected to participate in state-level community solar programs. In some cases, Altus Power partners with solar developers through development services agreements under which the developer completes project development, while Altus Power expects to own and operate the projects once they are in service.
The company positions itself as a full-service commercial-scale solar provider with a long-term ownership mindset. In its communications, Altus Power describes itself as generating and delivering clean electric power near the point of consumption, which it states can reduce the need for additional long-distance transmission infrastructure. The company also notes that its portfolio serves enterprises and communities that are focused on achieving carbon reduction goals and gaining access to clean energy without installing or maintaining their own rooftop systems in the case of Community Solar.
Altus Power’s Community Solar activities are described as providing the benefits of clean electric power to subscribers, including homeowners, renters, multifamily residents and small businesses, through discounts on their utility bills. Company statements indicate that Community Solar can extend renewable energy benefits to households and businesses that may not be able to host solar panels themselves, and that certain project portfolios include allocations specifically for low-to-moderate income households.
In addition to its operating model around locally sited solar generation, Altus Power has communicated that it owns and operates energy storage and charging infrastructure. These assets are presented as part of its broader clean power platform, though detailed breakdowns of storage or charging offerings are not provided in the available materials. The company also refers to its use of long-term ownership to support stable operations of its solar assets.
Altus Power has been active in expanding its portfolio through new projects and acquisitions. Examples disclosed in news releases include rooftop solar projects designed to serve a large sports facility in Colorado and a distribution center in California, as well as acquisitions of solar portfolios in states such as Kansas, New York and Maryland. These projects are described as providing a substantial portion of the host facilities’ annual energy needs, offering discounted power relative to grid rates, and contributing to measurable reductions in carbon dioxide emissions over the life of the projects.
From a corporate structure perspective, Altus Power, Inc. entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by TPG through its TPG Rise Climate Transition Infrastructure strategy in an all-cash transaction. Company announcements state that this transaction values Altus Power at approximately $2.2 billion, including outstanding debt. Following stockholder approval, Altus Power announced the completion of the acquisition by TPG, after which Altus Power became a privately held company. As a result, the company has stated that its Class A common stock ceased trading on the New York Stock Exchange and will be removed from listing, and that it intends to terminate the registration of its Class A common stock and suspend its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
These developments mean that the AMPS ticker now represents the historical public listing of Altus Power rather than an actively traded common stock. However, the company’s public communications indicate that its underlying business of originating, developing, owning and operating commercial-scale solar, energy storage and charging infrastructure continues under private ownership, with TPG Rise Climate as its acquirer.
Business model and revenue characteristics
Based on the company’s own descriptions, Altus Power’s business model centers on owning and operating solar energy systems and related infrastructure and selling the electricity or associated benefits to customers. Earlier descriptions highlight that hosts of the clean energy systems make no upfront investment, while Altus Power deploys capital to build and operate the systems and receives revenue from the sale of electricity and renewable attributes. The company has also described its involvement in renewable energy certificates, carbon offsets and other renewable attributes.
Recent communications emphasize long-term ownership of solar assets that generate recurring revenues from power sales to commercial, industrial, public sector and Community Solar customers. Altus Power also refers to non-GAAP metrics such as adjusted EBITDA and annual recurring revenues in its financial reporting, indicating a focus on recurring cash flows from its operating asset base, though detailed segment-level revenue breakdowns are not provided in the available text.
Industry context
Altus Power operates within the solar electric power generation industry and is associated with commercial-scale and Community Solar segments.
