Kerry Scott

Kerry has been working in renewable power investments for over 13 years, with 10 of those years specifically in the offshore wind sector.

Since mid 2019, he has been the CIO of Maple Power and part of the Maple Power senior management team. In this role, his current responsibility is for growth (bidding, partnerships, M&A) within Europe, but outside of France. This encompasses both floating and fixed bottom projects as well as any potential ancillary businesses that this may entail (e.g. storage, hydrogen etc). He was responsible for Maple Power’s entry into floating wind (Provence Grand Large), the BW Ideol partnership for France’s AO6 tender, and Maple Power’s (unsuccessful) participation in Scotwind with Parkwind / Blackrock / Quaybridge.

Prior to joining Maple Power, he was at Marubeni, initially in the Sydney office looking at onshore wind projects, then in the London office responsible for offshore wind investments. Kerry co-led the investment into, and financing of, Westermost Rough offshore wind farm and subsequently led the divestments of both Gunfleet Sands and Westermost Rough offshore wind farms. He was also responsible for the Marubeni’s Borssele offshore bid with Engie, was involved in their minority investment in Mainstream Renewable Power and supported the financing of Seajacks’ jack-up vessels. Kerry also led Marubeni’s minority investment, and subsequent divestment, of Windfloat floating offshore project.
