Hugh Taylor – CEO
“Going to the edges of our expertise to make schemes work is what excites me…”
Hugh is from an Oxfordshire farming family and has been in the energy sector for over eight years. During this time he has been involved with well over 500MW of large-scale and commercial-scale energy schemes for private, corporate and public sector clients across a range of technologies.
Hugh sits on expert panels for all six of the UK’s Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) giving him first-hand knowledge and understanding of their procedures and ongoing strategies. He also has a deep understanding of National Energy System Operator’s (NESO) Capacity Market and its various balancing markets. Hugh is a regular consultee to BEIS and Ofgem, as well as a popular speaker at industry events.
Away from the office, Hugh is a keen trail runner and country sportsman, and on winter Sunday mornings can be found coaching youth rugby for his son’s local club in Chipping Norton.
