Recruiting Renewable Energy Scouting Consultants to Support Expansion

Neulingen, 21 December 2011 – VisionConsult International, a global management consultancy, today announces the launch of the recruiting process for Renewable Energy Scouting Consultants. The Company operates the online trading platform aTradeon for projects from Renewable Energy Sources (RES), enabling players in the market of green energy to register for both sale and purchase of resources, projects and related services. With the support of aTradeon, VisionConsult provides brokerage services aiming to find appropriate investors to acquire these RES projects.

Responding to a buoyant investment market in renewables, and consistent with their global market expansion strategy, VisionConsult is building a professional network of Scouting Consultants around the world. These Scouting Consultants are to prospect their markets to find and to pre-screen promising RES projects for publication on the aTradeon platform with the aim to be available for acquisition by investors.

Markus Schäfer, Managing Director at VisionConsult GmbH, the German branch of VisionConsult International, explains: “The launch of aTradeon some 5 months ago marked the take-off of the first trading platform open for projects from all renewable energy sources. Now the time has come to put aTradeon on a broader basis. This includes our approach to increase the number of projects on the platform from several dozens to several hundreds. As in some markets it becomes ever more difficult to find attractive projects meeting the funding criteria of aTradeon investing members, we have decided to take advantage of Renewable Energy Scouting Consultants to support the global expansion of our activities. The Scouts will also speed up our expansion to emerging markets, including the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region, South America and Southern Africa”.

Regarding the Scouting Consultant’s role, Uwe Alexander Dudday, Senior Consultant at VisionConsult GmbH adds: “The Scouting Consultant’s prime focus is to identify promising RES project opportunities to be published on the aTradeon platform. A promising RES project is a project which meets a certain, specific set of criteria to qualify for purchase by an investor”. With respect to the remuneration of the Scouting Consultants, Mr. Dudday adds: “When a Scouting Consultant finds a RES Project which is acquired by an investor identified by VisionConsult, the Scout will earn a considerable referral fee. VisionConsult therefore is fully committed to share the success with the Scouting Consultants supporting us to raise the aTradeon platform to the next level of success”!

Fully registered aTradeon members with ambition and the required research skills, organization and communication talent as well as strong market knowledge may want to apply for a RES Scouting Consultancy by completing, signing, and returning to VisionConsult a “Scouting Consultant Application / Agreement” accompanied by a detailed curriculum vitae.

Trading platform for renewable energy projects now also available in German

Neulingen, 23 September 2011 – Vision Consult International, a global management consultancy, today announced the launch of aTradeon.de. Responding to popular demand, six weeks after the successful launch of the platform aTradeon.com for renewable energy projects in English, aTradeon.de is now available in German. Registered members of aTradeon now have the ability to search the world for suitable projects in English and in German, as well as to post own projects in German or English. Upon publication a posting appears also in the respective other language.

aTradeon acts as an intermediary between financial investors, project owners and project developers worldwide across the entire field of renewable energy sources such as solar energy, wind power, biomass and hydroelectric power.

Uwe Alexander Dudday, Senior Consultant at VisionConsult, said: “Since the start of the trading platform aTradeon, we receive inquiries from investors and developers from Europe as well as from countries outside Europe. In particular, the resonance of German project developers on the one hand, and international investors seeking to invest in projects in Germany, on the other hand, has surpassed all of our expectations. We have now extended the trading platform with a German version and are delighted to offer our German speaking members an additional service.”

Jean-Claude Bisenius, Managing Director of VisionConsult added: “aTradeon now fulfills a triple bridge: first, between financial investors and project developers, then between different language zones and last but not least between different cultures, which are reflected clearly in the negotiation process. Through aTradeon it is possible that, for example, a project developer without the knowledge of foreign languages sells large-scale photovoltaic projects in the megawatt range on rooftops in East Germany to an Indian investor, who is manufacturer of photovoltaic modules at the same time. ”

The professional team of aTradeon provides investors, developers and owners of projects expert advice and editorial assistance with the placement of offers and requests. Highly skilled and experienced multilingual consultants support members in the negotiation process and the conclusion of the best possible transaction for realizing their projects.

“Depending on the needs, in the future the aTradeon trading platform will be available in more languages”, Mr. Bisenius, confirmed. “The market for renewables is very dynamic in numerous countries, especially in countries which guarantee fixed feed-in tariffs comparable to those of the Renewable Energies Act (EEG ) in Germany. Our philosophy is to competently and efficiently build the bridge between buyers and sellers of green energy projects, with the additional requirement: Address many aTradeon members in their native language and offer them the opportunity to look for projects worldwide or post such projects onto the platform in their mother tongue. ”
