Our story
Acestes Power is the newest venture from the Mayel Group—a family of Alberta-based businesses with roots dating back to 1905.
What began with livestock and farmland has grown into a legacy of innovation in agriculture, real estate, and now renewable energy.
Our transition into power development was sparked by a simple question: how can we use the land to build a better energy future?
