Podcasts about conergy

Möchte man unsere Interviewpartnerin, Marilyn Heib, beschreiben, dann bedarf es definitiv mehrerer Sätze. Marilyn ist Maschinenbau-Ingenieurin im Bereich regenerative und rationelle Energietechnik und arbeitet nun seit über 20 Jahren in der erneuerbaren Energiebranche. Zunächst als Projektmanagerin, dann als Sales Managerin und Head of Sales bei Conergy und PowerWind. Im Jahr 2012 gründete sie gemeinsam mit vier weiteren Gründern die bettervest GmbH, die sich innerhalb von 11 Jahren am FinTech-Markt etablieren konnte. Bei dem Frankfurter Unternehmen ist sie als CEO und Vertriebsleiterin tätig. Doch Marilyn ist nicht nur Unternehmerin, sondern auch ehrenamtliche Leiterin des gemeinnützigen Klimaschutzvereins „Go for Climate e.V.“ Mit 39 Jahren bekam sie ihre Tochter und ist seitdem auch noch Mutter. In dieser Episode werden wir besprechen, wie sie es geschafft hat, sich in der Männerbranche als Ingenieurin zu behaupten, welches Potential die Schwarmfinanzierung für nachhaltige Projekte besitzt, wie sie Familie und Beruf vereint und welche wertvollen Erfahrungen sie in über 11 Jahren als Unternehmerin gesammelt hat.

I've been getting a LOT of inbound over the last year since President Joe Biden took office as investors and renewable energy developers the world over increasingly see the United States as a “great place to invest”. Sergio Blanco was my direct boss at Conergy, the last real “job” I held, at a time when I was trying to learn what it takes to develop and acquire pipeline in the then-booming Latin America solar market. We went through a LOT of projects, market consideration and strategy meetings, and on-the-ground hunting. So, you could say we both understand what it looks like to develop new markets through trial-by-fire.  Sergio is now the Director of Project Finance at Partner Engineering and Science (Partner) and is focused on helping Partner's stakeholders evaluate and due-diligence the Renewables sector. He leads the Due Diligence process, financial modeling, project accounting, and feasibility reports for lenders of solar PV and Storage projects, amongst others. He has managed the acquisition and financing of more than 1GW on solar projects throughout the USA and Latin America, and has also managed organizations and M&A Transactions for S&P 500 Companies and relevant Renewable Energy Developers throughout Latin America and the US.  In today's discussion, we focus on the 3 key areas that international companies must focus on when investing in new markets: Knowledge gathering / best practices - How well do I understand the market? Foreign direct investment - What kind of investment will it take, and what are the expected returns? Operational Readiness - What must I understand about place, people, projects to stand up a functional business in the region? It's a treasure trove of insight packed into a tiny package, so I hope you enjoy this Tactical Tuesday, Solar Warrior! Thanks for taking the time to stop by. I'd love to hear from you.

Lars Meisinger is Head of Aquila Capital’s international client advisory and corporate development. Prior to joining Aquila Capital in 2016, Lars was responsible for strategic product development at UBS Asset Management. He previously served as Chief Operating Officer at BlackRock Alternative Investors for the EMEA region. His long professional experience includes eight years in management roles at Man Group and senior positions at AXA Investment Managers in both London and Frankfurt. Lars holds a master's degree in economics from Maastricht University and a bachelor's degree from Johann Wolfgang Goethe University, Frankfurt. He is a Chartered Alternative Investment Analyst (CAIA). Alexander Lenz was recently appointed CEO Asia Pacific at Aquila Capita. He is based in Singapore and has worked in the renewable energy sector since 2007.   Prior to joining Aquila Group in 2020, Alexander was the CEO of Conergy where he focused on development and investment in solar PV assets, both utility scale and behind-the-meter C&I, across the Asia Pacific region.  Previously, when Conergy was part of a global group, Alexander was the CEO & President APAC, responsible for the group’s business in Asia Pacific and the Middle East, with a focus on project development, turnkey EPC contracting, and O&M of utility scale solar PV assets in the region.  Before moving to Asia, HE was Head of Corporate Development in Conergy’s headquarters in Hamburg.  Alexander was previously a consultant in the Restructuring and Corporate Finance practice of Roland Berger Strategy Consultants in Berlin and in the management consulting practice of Deloitte in Duesseldorf.  He holds a master’s degree in Economics from Maastricht University, in The Netherlands. Highlihgts: Our business focuses on real assets or essential assets, renewable energy, real estate, timber and agriculture. "We are moving the goalposts away from ESG steadily to impact in the future, where it's not only about compliance with environmental aspects, social and governance aspects." "... one of the very few independent investment managers in Germany, and in operation for 20 years, is in my view, a strong indication of the vision that the two founders set out Roman and Dieter." “We want to bring to the table smart capital, as opposed to passive capital that is abundantly existing, but doesn't really get to the point.” There is an interest in investing in Asia. More institutional investors in the region are interested in increasing exposure to renewable energy and sustainable investments. We support by not just creating our own renewable energy offering but by helping create a broader universe of offering for renewable energy that benefits everyone. The renewable energy market is constantly changing you need to stay ahead, stay intellectually curious and have the ambition to analayse the market and create sound investment decisions.

Today we are going to take a trip down memory lane, to a time when names like Trina and Jinko Solar were yet unheard of in the solar industry, a time when the largest brands were BP, and Conergy, and countless other mainly western names you may or may not recognize.  When I joined Trina solar back in 2011, I became aware of a legendary figure who had been responsible for building the sales team there, and who had subsequently moved on to another Chinese company.  That mythical figure is the eponymous Arturo Herrero, and at long last we got a chance to sit down at the Miami Solarplaza event. Arturo has forgotten more things about growing a solar business than most of us have learned. I learned a lot from Arturo, and I think you will too.  We cover How Arturo climbed the ranks at BP Solar, and how he was ultimately enticed to move to China for a fledgling solar panel startup! The contrast between growing Trina Solar's team and later moving over to repeat the process at Jinko Solar How Arturo, who travels a ton, prepares himself to get into each new country he's traveling to Where he believes are the next areas of innovation And of course, what's hot, what's not, and so much more. I'll be out in San Francisco at this year's Intersolar North America, and I just love meeting SunCast listeners.  So please let me know if you're out there.  IF you're interested in the Latin America market, I'll be the moderator for a Breakfast Briefing being held by my friends at Green Power Conferences. That event is from 8 to 10am on Wednesday, the 12th at the Kimpton in Union Square. I'll post more details on the website, so head over to www.mysuncast.com if you're interested in attending this year's Latam Breakfast Briefing and meeting me, Edgar Arvizu, Dino Barajas, and about 100 or so other solar leaders in the Latam market!  As always,If YOU have someone or something you think should be on Suncast, you can shoot me an email, a LinkedIn message, or even just pop over to the website and leave me a quick Voicemail, right from your smartphone!

How will solar PV projects develop in Southeast Asia? DNV talks to Hendrik R. Bohne from Conergy. Southeast Asia offers many opportunities in solar PV, but challenges exist too. In this episode, we talk to Hendrik about the main challenges in the region and how they differ, country to country. We hear from Hendrik how Conergy finds solutions to challenges such as a lack of local knowledge on the ground, and how they ensure delivery of a great project. Finally, we invite Hendrik to share his vision for the region.

Andrew de Pass, CEO of Conergy, a global solar developer and EPC, discusses solar development and the ITC in this Solar Speaks Live video, powered by Unirac, from the 2015 Solar Power International tradeshow.

Host Nico Johnson discusses in detail the research, tools and strategies you need to succeed as a solar professional in the Latin America market.  Through regular contributors like Adam James of Greentech Media and interviews with Industry Executives from leading companies like SolarCity, Nextracker, Conergy and others, Nico shares what's hot, what's working, and how you can be a cut above the rest as you take your company into the fastest growing solar market in the world.

As the solar industry goes through its growing pains there’s no shortage of ebb and flow to watch. Some businesses boom, while some lose their place in the market, and still others may stumble but come back stronger than ever. We spoke with Andrew de Pass, CEO of Conergy, about how the company has bounced back after its acquisition by Kawa in 2013, and what other solar professionals can learn from his experience.
