BREAKING: Quadrante has just announced its bold move to expand in the U.S. market through the acquisition of Right Analytics, a Los Angeles-based power transmission consulting firm. This strategic acquisition underscores Quadrante’s commitment to enhancing its presence in the energy and data center sectors, marking a significant step in its growth plans.
The deal comes just months after Quadrante incorporated Quadrante US LLC in October 2023, following its acquisition of Spain-based Meta Engineering in 2024. Founded in 2019 by Saman Babei, Right Analytics has established itself as a key player in electrical transmission systems, boasting high-profile clients such as Google and other major data center operators.
With this acquisition, Babei will take on the role of Chief Operating Officer of Quadrante’s U.S. operations, which will be led by Eduardo Llorente. In a statement, Quadrante’s co-founder and CEO Nuno Costa expressed excitement over the move, stating, “We are looking to acquire more companies in the U.S. later this year that will further strengthen our position.” This acquisition aligns with Quadrante’s ongoing strategy to boost its footprint in the energy sector, particularly in transmission, distribution, and engineering services.
Quadrante Right Analytics will bring a wealth of experience and active contracts, including partnerships with prominent North American utilities and system operators, such as the New York Power Authority, Dominion Energy, National Grid, and Southern California Edison. The company also has ongoing projects with various data center developers and technology firms, ensuring a robust operational pipeline.
Founded in 1998 in Portugal, Quadrante has expanded its reach to over 25 countries, generating a remarkable €122 million in revenue in 2025. Its notable projects include the new Porto Metro line, a lithium battery gigafactory in Sines, and the new Lisbon Eastern Hospital. The firm is primarily owned by its founders, holding 50.5%, while 49.5% is owned by the private equity fund Henko Partners.
As Quadrante sets its sights on further U.S. acquisitions, industry experts are watching closely to see how this expansion will impact the energy landscape and consulting market in North America. The immediate implications of this deal could reshape competitive dynamics and open new avenues for collaboration in the energy and technology sectors.
