Filling the energy skills gap®

$173.6bn - the value of planned offshore wind Round Three projects in the UK alone.”

Industry challenges and opportunitiesFalling costs, environmental and political support, evolving technologies – it’s a business in boom and Renewables account for almost half of new electricity capacity installed. Where oil-fired generation is the main source of power (e.g. on islands, off-grid and in some countries) you can expect a lower-cost, renewable solution to exist alongside.

The UK and Scandinavia remain the well-established European frontrunners, but in South Africa, South America and pockets of the Far East, Renewables are becoming a large and profitable part of the energy conversation.

How to fill the skills gapCompared to other energy sectors, Renewables is in its infancy. Those with specialist, in-depth knowledge form a very small talent pool – it’s the pool we draw from exclusively for our clients.

It’s also an energy sector that benefits from the experience of candidates from more established markets. For example, offshore Oil & Gas experts have plenty to bring to offshore Renewables projects.

This is when our global, cross-sector experience comes into its own. We offer our clients the advantage of broader energy industry know-how that helps them move swiftly up the learning curve and stay competitive.

the renewables team

Our multi-lingual, global team know Renewables inside out. As sector specialists - many also ex-industry – talking technicalities comes second nature. We don’t waste our clients’ time with candidates who don’t cut it.

And our track record speaks for itself…Our experience of renewables technologies spans the globe. We worked on the onshore wind projects of Curva Dos Ventos in Brazil and the Romanian Congealac wind farm, the largest in Europe, as well as South Africa’s 75 MW-DC Letsatsi Solar and the Irish Walney project – the largest offshore wind project in the world.
