Coming from a background in accountancy and foreign exchange trading I became managing director of ABB’s UK treasury centre, where we started a power marketing team in time for NETA in 2000. After 4 years in energy, I spent 12 years originating emissions reduction projects after setting up EDF’s emissions trading desk in time for the onset of the EU Emissions Trading Scheme in 2003. I returned to energy as Good Energy’s Trading Director in 2015 where I realised the value of flexibility in a renewable generation portfolio. This resulted in me joining Ecotricity in 2017 with the mandate to develop a flexibility platform and capability to take advantage of flexibility in the various available markets, such as frequency response, wholesale trading and the balancing mechanism. Ecotricity Smart Grid now has this platform which it’s using to optimise & despatch batteries of various sizes, including its own 10MW co-located one just north of Bristol.
