The Business Development Team

Who are they? What do they do?

The Business Development Team’s role is to advance projects from conception to Ready-to-Build (RTB) status by securing three essentials: sufficient land for development, planning permission for construction, and a grid connection to export the generated energy. To secure these three objectives, the Business Development Team identifies new project opportunities, builds strategic partnerships, and navigates regulatory landscapes. Through market analysis, they target high-potential regions and engage with landowners, local governments, and stakeholders to build trust and assess feasibility. The team also negotiates terms, secures funding, and aligns financial, regulatory, and technical aspects to meet strategic growth goals.
