Founding Director of the groundbreaking 25MW Ilute Solar project. Situated in the Sesheke District of Western Province in Zambia, Ilute is set to make history as the first of its kind in Africa. Leveraging the competitive markets of the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP), the project adopts an innovative private sector and market based approach to mitigate customer default risk. Originated by Buffalo Energy's subsidiary, Ilute is a consortium between Serengeti Energy and Western Solar Power and is a unique partnership of local and international expertise that leads the standard as the cornerstone of the nation's commitment to renewable energy.

I founded Buffalo 8 years ago as a UK regulated, emerging market energy investor. The company identifies and develops opportunities by providing the nexus between the local market, communities, and international finance, addressing systemic energy poverty through unprecedented and commercially viable means.Through our unique, market focused approach to development, Buffalo is developing a $400million portfolio of diversified and highly advanced wind, solar, and hydro projects across the Zambezi basin.

PPA origination, development, new market analysis. I led over 2GW of debt and equity financed PPA transactions and was responsible for the commercial structuring and development of energy sales across 100 utility scale solar projects.
