The Renewables Consulting Group (RCG) is reinforcing its solar and storage service capabilities in Canada to assist in the country’s energy transition with the hire of Prasanna Krishnan as principal.
Krishnan will be based in the company’s Vancouver office and will act as a lender’s independent engineer for utility-scale solar and storage projects.
RCG said he brings a wealth of utility-scale solar and technical due diligence and project management experience.
Krishnan has previously served as a technical advisor for developers, sponsors and lenders on the acquisition, development, construction and operation of commercial and utility-scale solar plants and portfolios across the Americas.
RCG Canada director Matthew Irvine said: “Pras is joining the Vancouver office at an exciting time as Alberta’s solar and storage market is blossoming. He has considerable development experience leading and supporting multiple complex technical due diligence assignments.
“His vast technical advisory experience with developers, sponsors, and lenders on the development, construction and operation of commercial and utility-scale solar PV and storage plants will serve our clients well.”
