What we do

We seek to contribute towards solving the energy trillema and the water to energy nexus.

Energy
Security

The effective management of primary energy supply from domestic sources, the reliability of energy infrastructure, and the ability of the grid stakeholders to meet current and future demand. 

Environmental Sustainability

The achievement of supply and demand side energy efficiencies and the development of energy supply from renewable and low carbon sources. 

Energy
Equity

Accessibility, affordability, and long-term visibility of energy supply across all consumer segments. 

Water to Energy Nexus

We lower the water usage of energy and increase energy output, leading to a more eficient water to energy ratio.

Code of Ethics and Sustainability
Price, quality, safety, reliability, and security of supply of electricity; and the reliability, safety and security of the national electricity system. 
ikenga

Ikenga is supported by Sun Capital Oü (suncap.eu), a passive investor in the energy transition and digitalisation.

Solving the Energy Trilemma requires a more holistic approach to power systems, which directly impact long term visibility and fair pricing of electricity, energy security, and the pace of the energy transition as a larger, more complex, yet more efficient power system. Digitalisation adds a layer of complexity. In addition to Power Quality, the efficiency and growth of digitalisation requires high efficiency data centres infrastructure which are driven by significant improvements in Data Centre design resulting in optimised Water to Energy Nexus and Energy Management.

About Dario

I am a civil, coastal, and environmental engineer with experience that integrates and combines environmental assessment, regulatory analysis, and coastal–port engineering. I hold a Master’s Degree in Energy and Environmental Engineering from the University of Naples Federico II, specialized in environmental modelling and coastal dynamics, and a Bachelor’s Degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering with research on innovative geotechnical materials.

My professional work in Italy and Spain integrates environmental studies, spatial analysis, and regulatory compliance with engineering activities related to coastal and port infrastructure. I frequently use QGIS and GIS-based tools to perform territorial analyses, map environmental and planning constraints, and evaluate how projects interact with landscape, hydrogeological, ecological, and coastal protection regulations. This includes assessments involving protected areas, shoreline restrictions, risk mapping, and landscape and environmental permitting requirements.

Alongside this environmental and regulatory work, I have contributed to projects in coastal and port engineering, supporting hydraulic analyses, numerical modelling, and the design and evaluation of maritime structures, submarine pipelines, and port operability conditions. This combination allows me to connect engineering design with environmental performance, ensuring compliance with territorial constraints and sustainability goals.

I approach each project with a strong emphasis on problem-solving, data-driven analysis, and multidisciplinary collaboration, integrating engineering knowledge, environmental criteria, and regulatory frameworks. I am particularly motivated by roles where technical design, environmental sustainability, and spatial / regulatory analysis come together to support responsible and resilient infrastructure development.

About Lorenzo

I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Energy Engineering, which included focused applied research on micro-grids and sustainable electrification. I furthered my expertise with a Master’s Degree in Energy for Development from Politecnico di Milano, integrating international perspective through academic experience at Technische Universität Berlin.

My professional career initially focused on decarbonisation strategy, where I leveraged a strong technical background in energy modelling, lifecycle assessment, and modern sustainability reporting frameworks (CSRD, ESRS, GRI).

I then moved towards a technical role as an Owner Engineer for PV plants. I oversaw the entire project lifecycle, from PV system design and technical due diligence to construction supervision and final testing & commissioning: I've contributed to the construction and technical supervision of over 50 MW of utility-scale solar PV plants.

Currently, I operate as a Project Manager, with a primary concentration on Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). My main focus now lies in driving the development and authorisation of these critical storage assets, which are essential for grid stability and the acceleration of the energy transition.
