Always learning, always building.
I've always been drawn to renewable systems that genuinely make sense: solar farms, microgrids, private wire and the energy trading that ties them together.
To understand them properly, I've worked in almost every part of the industry. I've managed thousands of roofs a year, wired systems as an electrician, run an installation company and now manage utility-scale projects.
Quanta brings all of that together. With technology moving as fast as it is, there's never been a better time to build better tools, and better projects.
Four ways we can help.
- Developers and investors
Get sites to ready-to-build
Screening, land, grid and planning, for one stage or the whole journey.
- Landowners
Lease your land for solar
A free, honest check of your land and plain-English advice on leases.
- Businesses
Cut your energy bills
Solar PPAs, private wire and large rooftop and ground-mount solar.
- Farms
Power the farm and field
Solar CCTV, electric gates and off-grid power for remote sites.
The whole industry, first-hand.
Architectural engineering
Where it started: buildings, drawings and how projects fit together.
Logistics, wholesale, design and sales
Supply chains, products and customers, seen from every side.
New-build homes at scale
Managed a department at a large new-build homes developer, covering several thousand roofs a year.
Qualified electrician
Qualified as an electrician and ran an installation company.
Utility-scale energy projects
Now manages utility-scale projects: landowner agreements, grid, contractors and investor reporting.
Project software
Builds the software Quanta uses on every project.
How we work.
Worth doing
We only back projects that genuinely make sense, for the land, the grid and the people involved.
Straight talking
Plain English, honest numbers and no overselling.
Always learning
Microgrids, private wire, energy trading, new tools. We keep learning, so our clients benefit.
