Renewable Energy Service Providers
The renewable energy market is one of the most important industries of the 21st century: while energy demands are changing and rising, the climate change pushes us towards changing our energy landscape. Renewable energy markets are heterogenous and packed with different players – starting with manufacturers of wind turbines or solar panels, to startups aiming to renew the industry (see our List of +100 renewable energy startups in Europe). Service Providers play a huge role in every step in the value chain: Starting with consulting as well as corporate finance & deal advisory, the construction and certification and testing of renewable energy plants, the operation and maintenance of these plants, to legal activities and IT-Services. Most of the time, service providers are working together closely with renewable energy developers and investors, who are mostly active in the beginning of a new project (see our List of +150 renewable energy developers in europe as well as our List of +150 renewable energy investors in europe).

Acquired this list together with the EU investors. Way less entries, but also highly relevant firms. Saves weeks of work since most Asian investors are hard to understand and to get in touch with.
