RCG opens Taiwan office at prestigious Taipei 101, appoints two in support of rapid in-country growth
6 October 2020Taipei, Taiwan – To support its phenomenal growth in Asia Pacific, The Renewables Consulting Group (RCG), a sector-specific advisory firm, announced the opening of a new office at the prestigious Taipei 101 supertall skyscraper. The moves further strengthen RCG’s strong local presence in Taiwan.
Located in Taiwan’s capital city, the Taipei 101 skyscraper symbolizes lofty ideals by going one better on 100, a traditional number of perfection. In 2011, Taipei 101 received a Platinum rating under the LEED certification system to become the tallest and largest green building in the world.
The Taipei office, in conjunction with RCG’s office in Tokyo, is leading the acceleration of the firm’s Asia Pacific platform in order to realise its goal of providing a top-tier market intelligence, management consulting, and technical advisory service to the renewable sector and delivering long-term value for clients.
RCG has appointed Michael Stephenson as Associate Director. Mr Stephenson is focused on offshore wind (fixed and floating) across a variety of areas including technical advice, project management, site finding and feasibility, project development and market entry strategies.
Later this month, Chien Huan Li will join RCG as Associate. Mr Li was formerly with the Ministry of Economic Affairs where he managed the progress of policy implementation, in collaboration with central and local government agencies, state-owned companies, and industries.
Mr Stephenson and Mr Li, who are each based in Taipei, will report to Laura Evertsen, Director.
Commenting on the news, Mrs Eversten said:
“We are thrilled to operate from this local landmark which symbolizes creativity, ingenuity and economic prosperity. With Michael and Chien Huan on board, I look forward to meeting the challenges of supporting and leading this rapidly growing business.” – Laura Evertsen, Director, Taipei.
