Treize ans entre capitaux étrangers et électricité bangladaise.

Je développe des projets électriques à grande échelle au Bangladesh : solaire, stockage, GNL et gaz. Les sponsors étrangers apportent l’argent et la technologie ; je rends le projet réel sur place : le foncier, le raccordement, les autorisations ministérielles, et un contrat d’achat qu’un prêteur financera vraiment.

Parcours

Dix organisations en treize ans, du contrôle documentaire sur des études d’ingénieur du maître d’ouvrage à la direction du développement renouvelable. Le fil ne change pas : faire passer un projet au-delà du point où, ici, les projets s’arrêtent d’ordinaire.
