Our history

OX2 was founded in Sweden in 2004 with the purpose of leading the energy evolution. We acquired an experienced development team and a mature project portfolio, and quickly took a leading position as an independent producer of onshore wind power in Sweden.

As adoption of renewable energy picked up, the price of the technologies quickly dropped. This is when OX2 developed our unique business model of delivering turnkey renewable energy solutions and started expanding our geographical footprint across Europe.

Today, renewable energy is the fastest and most cost-efficient way to generate electricity, and there’s a growing interest to invest in renewable energy from both financial and industrial players.

Wind and solar accounts for roughly 30 percent of the global energy mix. This is a sharp increase in recent years. But to remain within the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C target and enable the sustainable electrification of our economy and society, we need to speed up the energy transition.
