The deal brings together Wood Mackenzie's analytics platform with LandGate's data on transmission infrastructure and over 150 million US land parcels.

The acquisition enables Wood Mackenzie to offer clients a unified view connecting demand, supply and infrastructure for capital allocation decisions across the full investment lifecycle.

Wood Mackenzie acquires LandGate to deliver connected intelligence for the new era of US power markets. Acquisition of 150 million parcel-level land intelligence dataset strengthens Wood Mackenzie's leading market position and will drive faster, higher-confidence capital allocation decisions for power, renewables, and data center developers. LONDON/HOUSTON/SINGAPORE, June 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Wood Mackenzie, a global leader in data, analytics and insights for the energy and natural resources industry, today announced the acquisition of LandGate. The deal combines Wood Mackenzie's power market forecasting and supply chain analytics with LandGate's proprietary land and grid intelligence, as electricity demand grows at an unprecedented pace. "Wood Mackenzie is committed to providing the data, analytics and insights our clients need to make critical decisions in an increasingly complex energy world," said Jason Liu, CEO of Wood Mackenzie. "The system is becoming more interconnected and companies that rely on siloed approaches will be left behind. This acquisition advances our strategy by bringing LandGate's granular land and infrastructure data into our platform, giving customers a uniquely connected view of where demand is growing, how the grid must respond, and where capital should flow." Power generation investment in the US is expected to reach $1.36 trillion through 2035. Data centers are at the forefront of this growth and Wood Mackenzie estimates they will account for roughly 68% of US load growth through 2030. That concentration of large-scale, location-specific load is shifting power markets from a supply-led model to one defined by demand and whether grid infrastructure can respond in time. Decisions made at the earliest stages of project development are more crucial than ever and require data connecting power market fundamentals to ground-level site conditions within a single workflow. Founded in Denver, Colorado in 2016, LandGate offers a highly differentiated and proprietary data and analytics solution, leveraging insights on the US power transmission grid and more than 150 million land parcels in the US to support critically important capital allocation decisions for data centers, power and renewables projects, and other energy infrastructure assets. "The energy industry is undergoing a fundamental transformation, and our customers are at the heart of it," said Yoann Hispa CEO of LandGate. "By combining our proprietary data and insights with Wood Mackenzie, we are creating a unified ecosystem that will strengthen our offerings and accelerate the growth and innovation our clients rely on." "The future of power market analysis requires connecting demand, supply, networks and infrastructure in a single decision-making framework," said Xizhou Zhou, Executive Vice President and Head of Power & Renewables at Wood Mackenzie. "LandGate adds a critical layer of high-resolution data across land, transmission and large-load demand that allows us to model and understand markets from the ground up and significantly enhances our ability to support clients through the full investment lifecycle, from screening and siting to development and financing." KippsDeSanto & Co., KPMG, and Brach Eichler LLC served respectively as financial, tax, and legal advisors to LandGate in connection with the transaction.

Wood Mackenzie partners with Special Olympics Asia Pacific to tackle gender gap in sport. SINGAPORE, March 31, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Wood Mackenzie, a global leader in analytics, insights and proprietary data across the energy and natural resources landscape, hosted an exclusive event in partnership with Special Olympics Asia Pacific (SOAP), titled "Women & Girls Rising Through Sport." Held at Wood Mackenzie's Asia Pacific headquarters in Singapore, the event marked the International Women's Day 2026 theme, "Give To Gain," and spotlighted the transformative role of sport in empowering women and girls with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), a group that remains significantly underrepresented across the region. The collaboration reflects Wood Mackenzie's ongoing commitment to its Thrive program, which focuses on community engagement, wellness, sustainability, and Inclusion, Diversity & Belonging (ID&B). Across Asia Pacific, women account for just 30% of Special Olympics participants, underscoring persistent barriers to access, safety, and funding. By bringing together this dialogue with Special Olympics Asia Pacific, Wood Mackenzie aims to help close this gap and advance more inclusive participation in sport. "Inclusion isn't a box we tick. it's something we try to live through the way we work and the partnerships we choose" said Derryn Maade, Global Head of Metals & Mining at Wood Mackenzie. "Our Thrive program reflects that commitment in a tangible way, and partnering with Special Olympics Asia Pacific brings that commitment to life. The work they do to open doors for women and girls across our region is exactly the kind of impact we want to be part of." Jovina Choo, Senior Manager, Sports at Special Olympics Asia Pacific and Olympic Sailor, said, "Systemic barriers continue to limit the participation of women and girls with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) across its region from inadequate transport and limited access to facilities, to safety concerns and persistent cultural biases. "Yet, across Asia Pacific, female athletes are rising above these challenges demonstrating resilience, redefining perceptions, and leading change. Through sport, they build confidence, develop skills, and inspire more inclusive communities. Together, we have the power to accelerate this progress. By contributing our time, voice, resources, and networks, we can break down barriers and create lasting change to ensure every woman and girl with IDD is heard, supported, and empowered both on and off the field." The evening featured a panel discussion moderated by Pippa Woodhead, Board Member of Special Olympics Asia Pacific. Titled "Women and Girls Rising Through Sport," the session brought together athletes, advocates, and community leaders, including: Jovina Choo, Senior Manager, Sports at Special Olympics Asia Pacific and Olympic Sailor Megan Tang, Special Olympics Singapore dance sport athlete and athlete leader Jasmine Lai, parent advocate and mother of Megan Tang James Andrade, Singapore Head, US-ASEAN Business Council and ASEAN special advisor Panellists shared personal and professional insights on overcoming systemic barriers, highlighting how access to sport can build confidence, foster independence, and unlock leadership opportunities for women with IDD. Drawing on ongoing Special Olympics research, the discussion reinforced that investing in female athletes delivers far-reaching benefits, not only for individuals, but for families, communities, and society at large. The event concluded with a call to action for organisations and individuals to support Special Olympics Asia Pacific's key funding priorities, including coach development, safe and inclusive training environments, and leadership pathways for female athletes. By aligning purpose with action, the partnership highlights a shared belief: when women and girls are empowered through sport, everyone stands to gain.
