He led and managed both Operational and Engineering teams and large-scale operational portfolios for industry players such as Agrivert and Severn Trent Green Power.

    Neil has specialised in the Biogas Sector, primarily focusing on large scale Food Waste and Energy Crop anaerobic digestion facilities alongside portfolio scale Renewable Energy Technologies such as Wind, Solar and Hydro assets.
