About the Role
My client is an IPP focused on battery storage and grid connection infrastructure.
They’re not just a typical developer, they combine strong technical and financial backing. They’re closely linked to a specialist grid connections company that a lot of developers rely on.
They’re also backed by leading advisory and investment firms, so you’ve got both advisory and investment capabilities in-house, focused on co-development and co-investment in renewable projects. A global investment group focused on the energy transition is also a shareholder, providing strong financial backing and long-term strategic support behind the platform.

They focus on BESS and grid infrastructure, which is a key bottleneck in scaling renewables right now.
