APOLO ENERGIA

What APOLO ENERGIA does

APOLO ENERGIA (Grupo Apolo Energia) is a São Paulo–based private energy development and investment firm founded in 2017 that operates across the full lifecycle of clean energy infrastructure in Brazil. The company develops, finances, constructs, and manages distributed solar photovoltaic projects, battery energy storage systems (BESS), and biomethane production facilities utilizing agro-industrial waste. Its operating portfolio includes more than 200 MWp of constructed solar capacity, a development pipeline exceeding 1.6 GW, a BESS pipeline above 65.2 MWh, and biomethane capacity of 23,000 m³/day under implementation with an additional 54,000 m³/day in feasibility, spanning at least seven Brazilian states including Minas Gerais, Bahia, Pernambuco, Piauí, Goiás, São Paulo, and Rio Grande do Sul.

The company's core technology stack combines distributed solar PV development with standardized construction practices, integrated battery storage for grid reliability and off-grid applications, and agro-industrial waste-to-biomethane conversion processes. Apolo Lab functions as an internal R&D nucleus with over 20 years of experience and ANEEL-certified P&D project participation, providing process optimization, prototyping, and engineering consulting across all three technology lines.

Revenue is generated through project development fees, equity investments in owned renewable energy assets, and long-term asset management services under B2B enterprise sales contracts negotiated directly with institutional investors, energy companies, and agricultural or industrial partners. Pricing is project-specific with no public rate cards. The company maintains a direct enterprise sales motion with no reseller or distributor networks, targeting infrastructure investors and offtakers through consultative engagement rather than high-volume transactional sales.

Core offering

Apolo Energia develops, invests in, and manages clean energy assets in Brazil, with primary focus on distributed solar photovoltaic generation, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), and biomethane production from agro-industrial waste. It complements these asset activities with an R&D platform (Apolo Lab) that scouts and validates new energy technologies through ANEEL-regulated R&D projects.

Product overview

Apolo Energia operates as an integrated energy platform offering four interconnected product lines: Solar Energy Projects (geração distribuída solar) for photovoltaic generation, BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems) for energy storage solutions, Biometano for renewable biomethane production from agro-industrial waste, and Apolo Lab for R&D and innovation. The company develops, implements, and manages clean energy assets across Brazil's distributed generation sector, combining these solutions to provide integrated energy transition services.
