A Project Developer at Akuo plays a vital role in the proper development of each project. In both solar and wind, our developers are often specialized in one of the two technologies. However, at Akuo, they can switch from one to the other thanks to our internal training programs, allowing transfer of knowledge.

Within a given geographical area, the Project Developer must be capable of developing trusting relationships and coordinating with all the players involved in the process leading to the construction of a renewable power generation plant:

• Meeting with elected officials and communicating with local residents and organizations to inform, reassure and accompany them throughout the development process are all essential steps for the success of each project, which would not be possible without the support of the regions in which Akuo wishes to operate.
• Coordinating and overseeing all the studies required to obtain administrative permits, and managing the submission and progress of applications with the administrative and local authorities is an important part of a project developer’s job.
• A project developer also handles project planning and risk management.

An Asset Manager has several duties:

• Strictly apply and comply with all safety and compliance policies, to guarantee the physical safety of all the operators on site and the reliability and safety of the plant.

• Carefully monitor the production of power to guarantee the performance of the plant.
• Monitor the condition of the plant’s equipment, in connection with the maintenance technicians.
• Manage relations with the various service providers and contractors on site, as well as with local stakeholders.

An Asset Manager also takes part in monitoring the financial aspects of the plants in their scope, in conjunction with the management controllers.
