Our Story
At BNRG, partnerships are paramount. We’re proud to work alongside partners who share our passion and vision: to deliver clean electricity affordably, reliably, to the highest standards, everywhere we operate.
Headquartered in Dublin with operations in the US, the United Kingdom, Europe and Australia, BNRG is a pioneering developer and operator of solar projects led by a team of individuals united by a passion to change the world through solar technology and investment. Since 2007 we’ve worked alongside our development, technology and investment partners to finance, build, manage and own solar farms that today produce more than 150,000 MWh of clean electricity, with more than 5.5 GW of active projects in the development pipeline.
We’re not just interested in developing land or managing solar farms, we take a full project life-cycle approach to every one of our projects. From the first discussions with the landowner to the day a solar farm begins exporting its clean energy into the grid, we work closely with our partners to shepherd each project through every milestone. Our full life-cycle approach also lets us identify economies and invest in new technologies at each stage, ensuring we can deliver affordable green energy from every project, in every geography where we operate.
Partners
Our work is all about great partnerships and we work as hard on those relationships as we do at delivering solar energy.
Committed
We believe that not only is solar energy the best option to combat climate change, but that it can be delivered at a lower cost than traditional fossil fuel generation. A win-win solution for the planet and consumers.
Reliable
We strive to be a reliable and resilient force in the market, building on our considerable experience to make decisions for the future.
Flexible
Our experience tells us that one size doesn’t fit all, so we respond in real-time to market and industry changes to stay one step ahead.
Human
Our team loves working together and our partners love working with us because we bring more than just expertise to the table; we like to have fun too.
Our Approach
BNRG Renewables is widely recognized as one of the most notable companies to emerge from Ireland’s “Green IFSC” (International Financial Services Centre) initiative. Founded in 2007 by Neil Holman and David Maguire, BNRG has become a leading force in global renewable energy development. Neil Holman brought decades of financial expertise to the venture, applying innovative financing models developed both in Ireland and internationally over the previous 30 years. Environmental Scientist, David Maguire brought scientific insight to push the boundaries of the technology deployed. Founding members of various trade bodies in Europe, together they helped shape policy for this emerging sector. Their vision helped structure and launch funding for an expanding portfolio of sustainable energy projects around the world.
Together, Holman and Maguire combined financial innovation with environmental science to create a company that not only builds solar farms but also plays a pivotal role in advancing the global transition to clean energy.
Today, BNRG is not just a developer of solar projects. It is a driver for sustainable transformation. With a global portfolio of large-scale renewable projects, BNRG continues to balance environmental responsibility with financial rigor—proving that what’s good for the planet can also be good business.
