From the age of 15, Alastair knew he wanted to work in energy, and went on to gain a degree in Energy Management & Technology. His early career was in energy efficiency before moving over to renewable power generation including solar PV and onshore wind. For the past 20 years, Alastair’s career has been dedicated to offshore wind. For 7 years at The Crown Estate, he managed the UK’s offshore wind development programme. During this time, Alastair was one of the leading practitioners during the formative years of the sector. He then continued his time in the public sector working on policy and regulation for offshore wind at the UK’s Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. Over the last 6 years, Alastair has been focused on taking offshore wind global. To date, he has provided strategic advice on offshore wind in 38 countries.

Alastair was the founding Chair of GWEC’s Global Offshore Wind Task Force and is Lead Consultant to the World Bank’s Offshore Wind Development Program. In early 2023, Alastair co-founded offshorewindlearning.com, which is easily accessible e-learning to introduce and attract people into offshore wind. This is highly applicable to the Australian market.
