Clean energy advisory from the Breeze team
Breeze Advisory is the consulting practice of the Breeze team. We advise developers, investors, early-stage ventures, utilities and regions on clean energy strategy and market entry, policy and incentives, project development and risk, supply chain and manufacturing, and finance and investment. Consulting is also available by the hour.
What Breeze Advisory does
| Practice areas | Project development, investment, supply chain, energy policy |
|---|---|
| Energy types | Solar, wind, biomass, storage, oil and gas |
| Project scale | Utility-scale and distributed |
| Hourly consulting | Available |
Breeze provides strategic consulting for leaders in the clean energy transition. We specialize in project development, investment advisory, supply chain strategy and energy policy, and we work across the full energy value chain, from supply chain strategy and project finance to regulatory frameworks and economic development.
The team brings decades of leadership across renewable and fossil energy. That covers utility-scale and distributed solar, wind, biomass, energy storage and long-duration storage, along with oil and gas engineering: gas plant transitions, facility design and pipeline construction.
We have worked in project development, technology deployment and policy creation, and have shaped strategy, finance and regulation alongside developers, equipment vendors, manufacturers and government leaders. Our mission in this work is the same as in our own technology: to accelerate the global transition to clean energy.
Advisory services
Six areas of work. An engagement can cover one of them or several.
Clean energy strategy and market entry
Strategic assessments for new markets or technologies, competitive analysis and go-to-market planning, and support for early-stage ventures or M&A due diligence.
Policy, incentives and economic development
Guidance on navigating incentives, tax credits and grant programs, support for public-private partnerships, and economic development strategies for regions or utilities.
Project development and risk advisory
Support for utility-scale and distributed generation projects: technology selection across solar, wind, long-duration storage and biomass, procurement strategy and safe harbor analysis, risk assessment, technical validation and execution support.
Supply chain and manufacturing strategy
Advice on reshoring, global sourcing and vendor evaluation, drawing on deep experience in solar tracker and component manufacturing, and analysis of new US tax laws.
Finance and investment advisory
Bankability reviews for developers and investors, modeling input for long-duration energy storage, solar trackers and hybrid systems, and support for institutional investors entering clean energy.
Hourly consulting
Time booked by the hour to review a specific topic, get a sense of market trends or understand the scope of an issue.

The experience behind the advice
Advisory work is done by the same people who run Breeze. Mike Orshan has worked in renewables since 2003 and has deployed 5 GW of solar through various solar tracker companies. Denis Wiart leads the industrial EPC firm ONEC Group, with projects in oil and gas, chemicals and renewables.
Keegan Lang has been active in the oil and gas business for over 15 years and now deploys solar and wind as well as EPC. Chris Connors has led startups in operations and holds a BS in accounting and a JD.
Meet the Breeze teamLooking at the Breeze system itself?
Breeze also develops its own technology, which stores compressed air in pipelines and delivers electricity and cooling at the point of use. It is offered for community microgrids, pipeline energy storage and data center cooling.
How compressed air pipeline energy worksHow an engagement starts
It starts with a conversation, and it can stay as small as an hour of consulting.
