In this video, meet the people behind the assets and discover the expertise that powers every stage of the journey. You’ll hear insights from Alicja Kowalewska-Montfort (Managing Director, Commercial), John-Michael Cheshire (Managing Director, Investments), Michael Darzi (Project Development Manager), Daniel Sherlock-Burke (Director of Asset Management), Priya Adinamozhi (Commercial Associate), and Alan Smallwood (Principal, Energy Trading).

Expertise Across the Asset Lifecycle
The video follows the journey of a battery storage asset from initial investment through to operation and trading, providing an introduction to the expertise required at every stage.
You'll hear from the teams responsible for:
- Selecting attractive investment opportunities
- Managing procurement and construction
- Monitoring asset performance and reliability
- Securing revenue opportunities
- Optimising assets through real-time trading
While each function has a distinct role, they all contribute towards a shared objective: ensuring assets perform as effectively as possible throughout their operational life.
Delivering Impact
Battery storage plays a critical role in supporting renewable energy by balancing supply and demand across the grid.
In the 2025/26 financial year, we estimate that the assets we manage have helped avoid more than 15,000 tonnes of CO₂ and stored nearly 57 GWh of renewable electricity - enough to power almost 21,000 homes for a year.1
These outcomes are made possible through the expertise, operational oversight and collaboration that take place behind every asset in the portfolio.
