Ten years of experience with hybrid systems leading to extensive knowledge about PV, battery storage, thermal generators and energy management systems. Throughout numerous projects, I have been actively involved in all stages of planning and implementing hybrid systems across various countries worldwide. I thrive solving problems and bringing projects from concept to completion. I am enthusiastic about working in international teams and emerging markets.
Head of Product Management for ground-mounted PV - Coordination of various initiatives to optimise processes and standards - Led an internal working group on product strategy for BayWa r.e.'s ground-mounted solar farms
Project manager for Scurf Dyke Solar and Battery project - 80 MWp PV and 16 MWh BESS - One of the largest solar farms in the UK and one of the first co-located PV/BESS sites - Coordination of a core team of 10 people and various supporting functions to deliver project EPC in compliance with permits and grid requirements as well as securing offtake arrangements and operations contracts for the assets Project manager for the Fekola Gold mine project - Technical project management of battery storage system and hybrid system integration - Conceptualisation and procurement of energy management system - Management of hybrid system integration - Coordination of system commissioning and testing
