BrightNight Spins Off APAC Operations, Launches Yanara to Strengthen Regional Focus

WEST PALM BEACH:  In a strategic move aimed at accelerating growth and sharpening regional execution, BrightNight, a leading clean energy and digital infrastructure company, has announced the spin-off of its Asia Pacific (APAC) business into a new independent entity named Yanara.

The restructuring creates two standalone businesses—BrightNight, which will now focus exclusively on the U.S. market, and Yanara, which will manage and expand operations across the APAC region, including India, Australia, the Philippines, Singapore, and the Netherlands.

Enhancing Regional Agility and Growth

The decision to divide into two entities reflects the rapid growth of this business globally and the need for greater operational agility in distinct markets.

“This is the natural next step for two dynamic, rapidly growing companies,” said Martin Hermann, Founder and CEO of BrightNight. “Our business has grown significantly in both the U.S. and APAC markets, and this spin-off allows each entity to scale with greater speed and focus.”

BrightNight will now concentrate fully on its robust 35-gigawatt pipeline of renewable energy projects in the U.S., while Yanara takes the reins of the APAC business, leveraging regional expertise and partnerships to fuel further expansion.

New Leadership and Ownership Structure

Following the spin-off, the two companies will operate with separate management teams, ownership structures, and investor bases.

It remains under the leadership of Martin Hermann, supported by investors including Infrastructure at Goldman Sachs Alternatives. The company will continue to drive forward its mission of delivering clean and dispatchable energy tailored to the needs of U.S.-based utilities, data centers, and commercial customers.

Yanara will be led by Jerome Ortiz, previously CEO of BrightNight’s APAC division. The company retains a strategic partnership with ACEN in India and the Philippines, and Martin Hermann will remain involved as Chairman. Yanara’s independence will allow it to tailor its strategies specifically to the diverse regulatory and energy landscapes of Asia Pacific.

About BrightNight and Yanara

BrightNight is a next-generation power and digital infrastructure company known for integrating utility-scale renewables, advanced gas generation, battery energy storage, and digitally optimized energy hubs. With a customer base that includes utilities, data centers, and industrial clients, BrightNight uses its proprietary PowerAlpha® AI platform to optimize energy performance and cost efficiency across its portfolio.

Yanara will inherit BrightNight’s APAC infrastructure and expertise, including ongoing energy projects and regional offices. With this strategic independence, the company is expected to accelerate deployment of clean energy solutions in high-demand markets while developing localized partnerships and technologies.

Positioned for a Clean Energy Future

The separation positions both companies for targeted growth, operational efficiency, and increased value creation for customers and investors alike. As global demand for clean energy and digital infrastructure accelerates, BrightNight and Yanara aim to lead the way in their respective markets.
