Our key expert has been involved in the renewable energy business for over a decade. Throughout his career, he worked across regulatory and policy development, as well as commercial and business development activities. His key areas of expertise include commercial development, business development and strategy activities, regulatory and policy analysis as well as market analysis.

Some of the companies he worked for include Norwegian energy major Equinor, and in the renewable energy units of German energy companies E.ON and RWE, in both business development and commercial functions. He also worked for international consultancy and advisory firm DNV-GL, supporting private and institutional clients, respectively in the sale and acquisition of energy infrastructure assets, and in the development of regulation for renewable energy and green gasses.

His professional experience led him to provide risk assessment and advisory services around energy infrastructure projects for the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the European Investment Bank. Some of the key projects he worked on include the Trans Adriatic Pipeline, a natural gas pipeline delivering natural gas from Azerbaijan to Italy. He structured the commercial terms of gas transportation agreements for the pipeline, and
supported their negotiations. Additional projects include the commercial due diligence of gas storage and transportation agreements for private customers interested in the sale or purchase of natural gas infrastructure assets.

He lately structured the commercial terms and agreements for the sale of renewable energy across several countries in Europe for a variety of corporate customers across different industries, and developed business cases for the provision of flexibility services to power grid operators. He experienced first-hand the business models possible around electric vehicles and their chargers. This experience covered the use of electric vehicles’ chargers to provide flexibility to the grid, and the related business models. He had the opportunity to work closely with developers of software for electric vehicles and vehicle-to-grid solutions, gaining in-depth knowledge of the overall value chain of electric vehicles, and business models that can be created to deliver its full value to the grid and owners of electric vehicles infrastructure.
