The firm
A firm dedicated solely to renewable projects.
We work only with developers, IPPs, funds and contractors in wind, solar and storage. We know their projects from the inside, from the investment committee to the site, so we start every engagement without a learning curve and with work fitted to how each company is organised.

What defines us
- 01
Experience
Two decades inside wind and solar projects, from the investment committee to the site.
- 02
Judgement
We know where a renewable project tends to lose control, and what prevents it.
- 03
Technology
We turn that judgement into processes, tools and artificial intelligence agents.
- 04
Impact
Decisions in time, less manual work and projects on the planned cost and schedule.
How we work
We work at the pace of a project on site.
- 01
Renewables only
Wind, solar, storage and repowering. We do not work for other sectors, so we start every engagement without a learning curve.
- 02
Results from the first week
The first written result arrives in the first week, and every stage closes with something the team can use the next day.
- 03
Whoever analyses, implements
The same person who studies the company implements the changes and supports the team, with no intermediate layers or handovers.
- 04
Fitted to each company
We adapt the method to the size, portfolio and organisation of each company. What adds nothing is not implemented.
We believe renewable project management will change more in the next five years than in the previous twenty.
We work so that our clients are among the first to take that step.
Experience
Where that judgement was formed.
- 2005
Development in Spain
Solar and wind business development, first at Capital Energy and from 2009 at EDP Renewables. That is where you learn where a project's risk is born, long before construction.
- 2013
Projects in Brazil
Ten years leading wind and solar projects in Brazil, from due diligence to commissioning. That is where you learn how time is lost on site and how it is recovered.
- 2023
Excellence in Europe
Three years leading the project management excellence programme of EDP Renewables across nine European countries. That is where you learn to bring a whole portfolio under the same standards.
- 2026
