A green energy firm has appointed a new head of technical services as it seeks to grow its solar projects.
Gary Saunders has joined Environmena and will be based in the company’s Grazeley headquarters.
The firm says he comes with extensive experience in the renewables sector, including a 10-year stint with Anesco, eight of which saw him led the Operations and Maintenance department before moving into Design and Technical.
And he grew the firm’s solar portfolio to more than 22,000 domestic properties and 150 ground mount sites.
He was also part of the design team which installed the first co-located battery in the UK and worked on contractual negotiations for over 370MW of solar and battery storage sites in the UK and Europe.
Enviromena’s chief executive officer, Cabell Fisher, welcomed Mr Saunders, saying he would be a huge asset to the firm.
“We are delighted to welcome Gary to the team – especially at this crucial time in Enviromena’s exponential-growth phase and as renewable energy solutions become widely-considered alternatives to costlier sources of energy in the UK and broader European markets,” he said.
“Gary will be leading the design of Enviromena’s large-scale projects, SCADA systems and PPCs. His previous experience in leading and growing projects of this nature will be a great fit for the role.”
And Mr Saunders, said he was hugely excited to be working with Enviromena.
“This is a great time to be joining as the company continues along its path of expansion and growth,” he said. “There are many exciting projects in the pipeline and I am looking forward to being a part of them.”
