OUR STRATEGY

Our strategy is to work closely with the Albanian government, national and international energy agencies, the oil and gas industry, renewable energy players, companies, and investors to increase sustainable energy and power generation in Albania and the WB-West Balkans.

To successfully grow renewable energy generation in Albania we need to address the challenges of the higher cost of renewable energy, the current barriers to investment and community concerns.

We have experts with extensive knowledge and experience available to advise on procurement, project management, engineering design coordination, social, safety and environmental impact assessment, transport analysis, and planning of electrical grid networks.
