Royal Academy of Engineering recognition

RenSolv is proud to share that, in 2025, our innovative platform concept ProjectIntel was recognised through the Royal Academy of Engineering Enterprise Hub's Regional Talent Engines programme.

The initiative, backed by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT), supports early-stage ventures driving impact across engineering and technology.

About the Royal Academy of Engineering and Enterprise Hub

The Royal Academy of Engineering is the UK's national academy for engineering, working as a charity and fellowship-led community to engineer better lives.

Through its Enterprise Hub, the Academy supports engineering and technology entrepreneurs with funding, training, networking and mentoring, without taking equity in return.

The Enterprise Hub has also been named the leading startup hub in the UK in analysis by the Financial Times and Statista.

What we are building: ProjectIntel

ProjectIntel is RenSolv's platform concept to help developers and network operators move faster at the earliest stages of grid connection work by surfacing constraints sooner, reducing avoidable iteration, and supporting better-informed decisions.

Earlier constraint visibility

Identify technical blockers sooner and prioritise the right connection options.

Decision-ready outputs

Clear assumptions and practical recommendations for project and investment teams.

Engineering value

Built around practical workflows for renewables, storage, and network operators.

Why this matters

Grid connection has become one of the most material schedule and delivery risks in the energy transition. This recognition validates a simple premise: better grid intelligence, delivered earlier in the project lifecycle, can help unlock more low-carbon generation and storage onto the system.

Being recognised through a programme delivered by the Royal Academy of Engineering's Enterprise Hub, and funded by DSIT, signals that ProjectIntel aligns with the type of high-impact engineering innovation the UK ecosystem is actively seeking to scale.
