In July 2026 TotalEnergies completed an €86.4 million share buy‑back and sold 170 MW of rooftop solar projects, freeing capital for larger utility‑scale renewables. Over the twelve months to March 2026 the group added 8 GW of gross renewable capacity, bringing its total to 35 GW.

In August 2026 the company announced two linked transactions. It agreed to acquire Shell’s on‑shore renewable portfolio in Europe – roughly 500 MW of operating or under‑construction solar and wind assets, mainly in Italy and the Netherlands, together with a development pipeline of about 3.5 GW across Italy, the United Kingdom and Spain. Simultaneously, TotalEnergies will sell a 50 % stake in a 1.2 GW on‑shore wind and solar portfolio spanning Germany, Spain, France and Poland to KKR for an enterprise value of €1.8 billion. Both deals remain subject to regulatory approval and are expected to close by the end of 2026; the financial terms of the Shell sale were not disclosed.

After completion, TotalEnergies’ European on‑shore renewable capacity is projected to be about 9‑10 GW installed or under construction, supported by a pipeline of roughly 27 GW.
