The experience held by HLC EH has taught it that to take a project from inception to operation, you need a professional and qualified team to implement it. As HLC expands its interests it is constantly engaging new talent to take forward its challenges and building up professional teams is part of its strategy.
HLC’s strength has always relied in spotting new opportunities and making them a reality, and this is taking projects for a green site to their operation. HLC is a developer, not an operator, and its strategy is to develop the projects to a stage where the maximum potential of the value chain is achieved, delivering bigger returns to its shareholders and investors.
HLC has in the past carried out the function of operator and has implemented various Build Own Transfer (BOT), Build Own Operate (BOO) and Build Own Operate Transfer (BOOT) type projects. With such a vast range of activities involved in the renewable energy sector today, the capital required to retain these type of assets falls out of its scope of business, so HLC’s approach is to develop the assets and then sell to operators, considering a “carried interest” when the opportunity arises. This strategy is in line with HLC’s Full Circle concept.
