About

Hey there! I’m an international business developer and entrepreneur with over a decade of experience in the energy sector, passionate about driving industrial decarbonization. I’ve lived in The Netherlands, London, and, since 2011, Spain, where I’ve been mostly focused on the Iberia region. My work has taken me to every continent, with deep expertise in Europe, Latin America, and Australasia, helping industries transition to sustainable, cost-effective energy solutions. My mission? To turn renewable energy from a goal into a practical reality for businesses facing high costs, technical hurdles, regulatory pressures, and sustainability demands. As an entrepreneur, I’m all about supporting innovative companies that push the envelope. At Suncom Energy, we’re leading the way with groundbreaking renewable heat solutions designed for industry. Our patented technology delivers the highest renewable heat per square meter, tackling challenges like high investment costs, space constraints, and volatile energy prices. We empower businesses to decarbonize without upfront costs, ensuring seamless integration and zero disruptions to operations. Plus, we help navigate public subsidies to make the transition even smoother. With my international experience and leadership in energy innovation, I bring a world of insights with a local focus, especially in Iberia.
