Who We Are
Built to scale the energy transition.
Altakon is a next-generation renewable energy company purpose-built to develop, own, and operate utility-scale solar-plus-storage assets across the United States.
We operate on a lean alpha model — minimizing overhead, maximizing project velocity. Our founder brings a rare combination of development expertise, capital markets acumen, and operational depth forged from leading complex renewable portfolios that achieved public company status.
Altakon is not just developing projects. We're building a durable, scalable platform for the next decade of energy infrastructure.
Our Approach
The Altakon Alpha Model
Precision over bureaucracy. Capital discipline over empire-building. Results over narrative.
Turning sunlight into long-duration value — at utility scale.
01
Solar-Plus-Storage Focus
We develop co-located solar and battery storage assets that capture the full value stack — generation, capacity, ancillary services — maximizing long-term returns in every market.
02
Lean Operational Alpha
A streamlined, high-output team structure eliminates layers between decision and execution. We move faster, underwrite smarter, and close projects at a fraction of the typical cost structure.
03
US Market Depth
Deep relationships across interconnection queues, offtake counterparties, landowners, and capital markets give Altakon a structural edge in sourcing, permitting, and financing projects.
04
Vertically Integrated Expertise
Our founder led US investment in a fully vertically integrated solar manufacturing, EPC, and project development business — giving Altakon unmatched visibility across the supply chain.
05
Institutional Capital Discipline
Every project is underwritten with institutional rigor — stress-tested assumptions, conservative P99 energy yield, and robust capital stack structuring from development through construction financing.
06
Portfolio to Platform
Altakon's roadmap is not just asset accumulation — it's building a platform with recurring operating cash flow, strategic optionality, and a path to value realization at scale.
Dual-Segment Platform
Utility-Scale Power. Community Roots.
Altakon pursues a deliberate dual strategy — developing both utility-scale and community power assets. Each segment is compelling on its own. Together, they create a diversified, resilient platform that generates earlier cash flow, deeper community relationships, and broader investor appeal than either approach alone.
Utility Scale
50 MW – 500+ MW per project
The Scale Engine
Utility-scale solar-plus-storage projects are Altakon's primary value creation engine — large, long-duration assets that anchor balance sheets, attract institutional capital, and serve the exploding electricity demand from AI data centers and industrial decarbonization.
◆
Long-Term PPA Contracts
15–25 year power purchase agreements with investment-grade utilities, municipalities, and corporate offtakers — providing the revenue certainty that underpins project finance and tax equity structures.
◆
AI & Hyperscaler Offtake
Directly targets the fastest-growing electricity demand segment: hyperscale data centers with 24/7 carbon-free energy commitments. Utility-scale co-located solar-storage is the only technology that can reliably serve them.
◆
Tax Equity & Institutional Finance
Projects sized for the full institutional capital stack — investment tax credits (ITC), production tax credits (PTC), tax equity partnerships, and construction-to-term debt from US lenders and development finance institutions.
◆
Multi-Revenue Stack
Energy sales, capacity payments, ancillary services, and renewable energy certificates (RECs) — utility-scale storage unlocks revenue streams unavailable to generation-only assets.
500+MW per flagship project capacity
+
Community Power
1 MW – 20 MW per project
The Community Edge
Community power projects — smaller distributed solar and storage assets serving local utilities, municipalities, cooperatives, and subscriber communities — are Altakon's fastest path to revenue, deepest source of community relationships, and most powerful proof of social license at the local level.
◆
Faster Development Timelines
Community-scale projects move through permitting, interconnection, and construction in 12–24 months versus 3–5 years for utility-scale — generating earlier operating cash flow that funds Altakon's broader development pipeline.
◆
Enhanced IRA Tax Credit Adders
Community solar projects sited in low-income communities or designated energy communities qualify for IRA bonus adders of up to 20% on top of the base ITC — materially improving project economics and expanding Altakon's addressable market.
◆
Local Relationships That Scale
Community projects build the municipal contacts, planning board relationships, and landowner trust that directly accelerate permitting for utility-scale projects in the same region. Each community win is an investment in the next large-scale approval.
◆
Democratising Clean Energy Access
Community power subscribers — households, small businesses, schools, local governments — receive direct bill savings from Altakon's projects. This tangible local benefit creates advocates, not opponents, at every public hearing and zoning board meeting.
20+MW community projects — faster, earlier, local
Why Both — The Compounding Advantage
Diversified Risk
Two project types, different interconnection queues, different offtakers and financing structures. If one segment faces headwinds, the other keeps the platform moving.
Earlier Cash Flow
Community projects reach commercial operation years before flagship utility-scale assets — generating operating revenue that self-funds development overhead and demonstrates platform execution to investors.
Community Trust → Utility Permits
The goodwill, local authority relationships, and community benefit track record built through smaller projects directly accelerates approval timelines for Altakon's larger utility-scale projects in the same geographies.
ESG & European LP Appeal
A portfolio that serves both hyperscale AI demand and local communities demonstrates the full spectrum of responsible energy development — a compelling narrative for ESG-mandated institutional investors on both sides of the Atlantic.
Founder Pedigree
A Demonstrated Track Record
Achievement · BIST: GWIND
Galata Wind Enerji A.Ş. — Public Listing
As Country-Regional CEO of a European renewable energy group, Atakan led a lean team that built a complete greenfield project portfolio from zero — originating, developing, and de-risking assets that became the foundation for Galata Wind Enerji A.Ş. (BIST: GWIND), a wind and solar platform with ~297 MW of operating capacity. The IPO debuted on Borsa Istanbul in April 2021, attracting demand 8× oversubscribed.
Achievement · BIST: TATEN
Tatlıpınar Enerji Üretim A.Ş. — Public Listing
The same greenfield portfolio also formed the foundation for a second publicly listed company — Tatlıpınar Enerji Üretim A.Ş. (BIST: TATEN) — listed on Borsa Istanbul as an independent renewable energy generator. Two IPO-ready public companies created from a single lean team's ground-up project development work is an exceptionally rare achievement in any market.
Achievement · Smart Solar Technologies
Country Manager & CEO, Smart Solar Technologies USA
Appointed to establish and lead Smart Solar Technologies' US operations from the ground up. Responsibilities spanned the full scope of a $300M+ solar module and cell manufacturing platform: identifying and securing the optimal US factory site, building effective relationships with state and local officials, and negotiating a comprehensive incentive package to support the investment. Led business development and sales with major utility and corporate offtakers, while assembling and leading an effective cross-functional team. This end-to-end ownership of a complex, large-scale industrial and commercial mandate is the operational depth Altakon brings to every project it develops.
Atakan Ozbek
Founder & CEO
Atakan Ozbek brings over two decades of clean energy experience spanning research, business development, project finance, and international operations. He holds a BSc in Environmental Engineering from Middle East Technical University and an MBA in Banking & Finance from Hofstra University, New York.
Before founding Altakon, he served as Country Manager & CEO of Smart Solar Technologies USA — charged with establishing the company's US operations from scratch. He led site selection for a $300M+ solar module and cell manufacturing facility, negotiated a comprehensive incentive package with state and local officials, drove business development and offtake sales with major utilities and corporate buyers, and built the cross-functional team that made it happen. Earlier, as Country-Regional CEO of a European renewable energy group, he built a 2,000 MW greenfield portfolio from zero, producing two Borsa Istanbul-listed public companies: GWIND and TATEN.
A critical edge Atakan brings to Altakon is deep expertise in FEOC-compliant supply chain and procurement — ensuring every project qualifies fully under the Inflation Reduction Act's domestic content and foreign entity of concern requirements, protecting tax equity and ITC/PTC eligibility from day one.
Equally important, he has spent his career building high-performance lean teams and cultivating lasting relationships with federal agencies, state energy offices, local authorities, and host communities. In utility-scale development, the ability to earn community trust and navigate regulatory approvals is often the difference between a project that gets built and one that doesn't — and it is one of Altakon's most durable competitive advantages with US and European institutional investors alike.
AI Runs on Electricity. Altakon Builds What Powers It.
The artificial intelligence revolution is the largest single driver of new electricity demand in US history.

Storage as the Enabler
Why Storage Changes Everything
Solar generation alone cannot guarantee the continuous, dispatchable power that AI data centers require. Battery storage is the critical bridge — storing daytime solar generation and dispatching it through the night, creating the 24/7 clean power profile that tech offtakers demand and that utilities cannot otherwise provide. Co-located solar-plus-storage is not just an option for the AI energy era. It is the answer.
Grid Resilience
Altakon's Role in the New Grid
AI demand is straining grids that were built for a different era. Altakon's solar-storage assets don't just generate power — they provide frequency regulation, voltage support, and capacity that grid operators urgently need. This multi-revenue-stream model — energy, capacity, and ancillary services — strengthens project economics while supporting the grid resilience that underpins the entire AI economy.
The AI energy gap is not a future problem. It is happening right now.
Not every site demands the same solution. Altakon configures each project — solar standalone, storage standalone, or combined solar-plus-storage — based on grid needs, offtake requirements, and market economics. And with a global procurement network and lean operational discipline, Altakon fast-tracks EPC to bring projects to energy generation ahead of the market.
☀ Solar Standalone
Utility-scale and community PV without co-located storage — optimised for grid regions with favourable energy market pricing, strong daytime demand, and interconnection queues that reward generation-only assets. Fastest and lowest-cost route to megawatts.
Energy Market ArbitrageLower CapexFastest CODREC Generation
⚡ Storage Standalone
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) deployed independently — charging from the grid and dispatching into high-value peak periods. Ideal for capacity market participation, frequency regulation, and grid ancillary services where storage alone commands premium revenue without requiring co-located generation.
Co-located solar-plus-storage is Altakon's flagship configuration — the only technology that delivers 24/7 dispatchable clean power at scale. Solar charges the battery during generation hours; storage dispatches into peak demand and overnight windows, unlocking the full revenue stack: energy, capacity, ancillary services, and carbon-free offtake for AI data centers.
Global Network. Lean Execution. Projects to Power — Faster.
Global Procurement Network
Atakan's career spanning European and Middle Eastern renewable markets has built direct relationships with tier-1 module manufacturers, inverter OEMs, BESS integrators, and EPC contractors across three continents. Altakon sources equipment at institutional pricing — unavailable to first-time US developers.
Altakon's lean team structure eliminates the bureaucratic overhead of larger developers — procurement decisions made at founder level, contractor relationships pre-qualified, supply chain secured before financial close. This compresses the EPC timeline by months, not weeks, over conventional development processes.
Founder-Level Procurement DecisionsPre-Qualified ContractorsMonths Faster Than Market
Vertically Integrated Expertise
As Country Manager & CEO of Smart Solar Technologies USA, Atakan oversaw a $300M+ solar module and cell manufacturing operation — giving Altakon's founder direct command of every layer of the value chain, from wafer to interconnection. Combined with his experience negotiating incentive packages with state and local officials and executing complex US market entry, this means fewer surprises, faster procurement decisions, and margin retention that pure-play developers give away to contractors.

Why Altakon Wins in the US Market
The capabilities that matter most to US and European institutional investors — and to every project that needs to get built.
IRA Compliance · Supply Chain
FEOC-Compliant Procurement
Atakan's hands-on experience with vertically integrated solar manufacturing gives Altakon a precise understanding of Foreign Entity of Concern (FEOC) rules under the Inflation Reduction Act. Every project is structured from day one with fully compliant module and equipment procurement — protecting ITC/PTC eligibility, satisfying domestic content requirements, and meeting the rigorous diligence standards of US tax equity providers and institutional lenders.
Across multiple continents and company cultures, Atakan has consistently assembled small, highly capable teams that punch far above their weight — building 2,000 MW portfolios with the overhead of a boutique. At Altakon, this same philosophy drives exceptional output per dollar of G&A, a metric that sophisticated investors scrutinise closely when evaluating development platforms. The right people, in the right roles, moving fast.

Permitting · Regulatory
Federal, State & Local Authority Relationships
Utility-scale solar-storage development is fundamentally a relationships business. Getting interconnection agreements, land use permits, environmental clearances, and grid approvals requires sustained, trusted engagement with federal agencies, state energy offices, county commissions, and planning boards. Atakan has built these relationships across markets over decades — accelerating timelines that routinely stall competitors and reducing approval risk that lenders and equity investors price heavily.
Long-duration infrastructure assets — the kind that anchor balance sheets and support project finance — can only be built with the genuine support of host communities. Atakan has led community engagement programs across diverse geographies, translating complex energy projects into local economic benefit, job creation, and shared value. Social license is not a checkbox for Altakon — it is a core asset, one that reduces litigation risk, accelerates permitting, and is increasingly demanded by ESG-focused institutional lenders and investors on both sides of the Atlantic.
