People
A small core, and a network we can call on
We work differently. Behind a lean management team sits a large network of colleagues we have already worked alongside as a team, and we can call on that expertise at any point to assemble and package a project. Nobody is staffed from whoever happens to be on the bench.
It gives us reach into a range of expertise and nationalities spread across the world, and it is why a firm this size can take on work across seventeen countries.
Management team
Biographies for the remaining directors are being finalised and will be added shortly.
Thirty-eight years in the energy sector across seventeen countries, spanning regulation, development finance and project delivery.

A Certified Public Accountant, Certified Fraud Examiner and Certified Forensic Accountant with more than thirty years in auditing and compliance. Her career includes the U.S. Government Accountability Office and over two decades at the Asian Development Bank, supporting financial governance on development projects. She carries financial oversight, cash flow and governance systems across our engagements.
A power systems specialist with decades of work across Asia. His expertise in grid integration and energy infrastructure underpins our work on charging, solar and network connection — making sure systems are designed to operate reliably and to scale rather than to pass a feasibility study.
A renewable energy and logistics specialist with a background in electrical and energy engineering, working across solar, wind, hydrogen and storage. She combines system design with supply chain management — which matters more than it sounds, because in our markets the equipment arriving on time is usually the binding constraint.
A digital transformation and project management specialist experienced in complex technology deployments. He builds the monitoring systems and digital tools that make fleet operations and battery logistics manageable at scale rather than by spreadsheet.
The advisor network
Twenty-one senior specialists, engaged per project. Between them they cover power systems, renewables, energy efficiency, economic regulation, environmental and social safeguards, procurement, waste, sustainable buildings and climate adaptation — across Southeast Asia, South Asia and Central Asia. Several are former development bank staff; several are recognised names in their national markets.
Partners
Beyond our own team and advisor network, we work with technology suppliers, carbon developers and engineering specialists across Japan, North America and Europe. Project teams are assembled from that group according to what the work needs.
Asian Gateway Corporation
Tokyo, Japan · Cooperation agreement since 2025
Joint Crediting Mechanism project development. Asian Gateway originates and structures JCM submissions to Japan's Ministry of the Environment and sources Japanese technology suppliers; we contribute project development, engineering coordination and delivery in market.

MRG
Cooperation agreement
A long-standing working relationship rather than a recent introduction, which is what makes it useful: joint pursuit of projects where our development and approvals work sits alongside their capability in market.
4C Energy
Cooperation agreement
Collaboration on energy project development and delivery, bringing additional technical and commercial capacity to engagements that need it.
Further partnership agreements are in progress and will be listed here as they are concluded.
