Verdastra Energy is focused on the development of energy and digital infrastructure investments throughout the project lifecycle, in market sectors including renewable energy, hydrogen production and data centre infrastructure. We work closely with a number of private and institutional investors who are committed to funding the development of viable, sustainable energy and infrastructure projects in rapidly growing markets.
The global AI revolution, combined with the ongoing transition to Net Zero, is driving a wave of new development opportunities in sustainable energy and digital infrastructure hubs for data centre operations. Our vision is to provide the responsive solutions required to realize this high growth potential created by technology advances, new business models and powerful demand drivers.
We are active in the creation and commercialization of projects at all stages from concept to commercial operation, using our networks and expertise in the development process to bring together owners, investors and qualified delivery partners. We look forward to working with all our partners to capitalize on current and future opportunities as the AI revolution and energy transition evolve in the coming years.
Creating investment returns
Commercial focus
Delivering successful commercial solutions is our priority, converting concepts into real world delivery. Decades of industrial, commercial and market experience underpin solutions that add value and mitigate risk.
Our commercial experience includes structuring and negotiating a significant portfolio of commercial arrangements across a range of commodities and markets.
Project economics
Project economics are the primary metrics and are analysed at all stages, with a constant drive to optimize proposed facilities for competitive production in the market at minimum unit cost in order to generate maximum returns on investment.
In-house simulations are used to model process units and optimize production against key benchmarks including levelized cost (LCOX) and internal rate of return.
Industry experience
Our industry knowledge is based on decades of hands-on involvement in projects in both owner and contractor roles across renewables, conventional energy, process plants and hydrocarbons sectors.
Our execution experience over the full project lifecycle means that constructability and other key practical aspects are built into robust decision-making from the earliest stages.
Market sectors
We are active across most energy sectors and project types including renewables, power-to-X options, clean hydrogen with carbon capture, and thermal power including conventional and renewable thermal technologies.
Renewables
