Our Team
35+ years of combined experience and expertise in the field
Chryssa Syrelli
Chryssa joined Enron Wind in 1998 where she combined responsibilities in construction management and project development. Following the acquisition of Enron Wind by GE in 2002, she joined the GE Energy project development group where she served as project manager eventually assuming responsibility for sell-down transactions and contractual integrity of development agreements.

Rembrandt Niessen
Rembrandt is a renewable energy pioneer and entrepreneur but equally made his mark in the large corporate environment. He started in wind energy in 1993 when he founded NEDPOWER and saw his first project going into construction in India in 1998. He joined GE Energy in 2003 where, following stints in London, Singapore and the US, he was appointed as global leader of the Project Development team and later as a Managing Director at GE Capital in London. With this team he undertook early solar development work in the US and Europe and managed 10GW of wind and gas-fired projects through the development cycle that ultimately progressed to construction across Europe, Asia, North and South America as well as Africa. After leaving GE, he took interim leadership roles as Chief Commercial Officer at a disruptive energy storage start-up after first having filled that same role in a marine energy company.
