Advance Klimate Solutions is an independent advisory practice led by Dmytro Kuziak, an energy infrastructure finance specialist with fifteen years of experience across the UK, Europe, and Ukraine.
The practice serves renewable energy developers, infrastructure PE platforms, and institutional lenders — bringing investment-grade financial modelling, project finance structuring, and portfolio-company finance support to the mid-market segment where Big Four advisory fees do not fit but institutional standards still apply.
Track record
- £800m+ of energy-from-waste project finance led at Wheelabrator Technologies UK (a MIRA-owned platform, now enfinium) — across three operational assets totalling ~210 MW of generating capacity.
- £100m+ of infrastructure debt transactions originated and structured at Gresham House (£8bn+ AUM alternative asset manager), across real estate, solar PV, and battery storage assets.
- 15 years of hands-on financing and operating experience spanning utility-scale renewables, battery storage, energy-from-waste, district heat, and combined heat and power — as both lender (Gresham House, KPMG) and sponsor (Wheelabrator/MIRA, ContourGlobal/KKR).
Credentials
- Executive MBA, University of Oxford (Saïd Business School) — energy finance focus.
- MSc and BSc (Hons) in Finance, Kyiv National Economic University.
Why Independent
The practice is deliberately small. Clients work directly with Dmytro — not with an associate team, and not with a rotating cast of junior analysts. The trade-off is a narrower capacity; the return is faster turnaround, senior judgement on every page delivered, and pricing that sits between Big Four partners and Big Four analysts.
Geographic scope Primary focus: United Kingdom. Secondary markets: Western and Northern Europe (project work, particularly BESS and solar). Developing practice: Central and Eastern Europe, with specific positioning for Ukraine reconstruction finance as multilateral and private capital scales up deployment.
