Founded in 2015, G8 is a Singapore headquartered company that develops and constructs renewable energy projects across the globe. 

It also uses its expertise in subsea cable and engineering technologies to develop solutions that effectively connect large offshore wind turbines and floating solar systems to land. 

The group currently has over 3GW of renewable energy and subsea transmission projects under Asia and provides specialised engineering services to leading contractors, governments, utility companies and project developers to accelerate renewable energy developments around the world. 

With most of G8’s operations and projects located overseas in countries such as South Korea, the company is now setting its sights in West Africa. But really what are the opportunities there and how does G8 assess its reliance on overseas projects?

Also, the firm said last year that it plans to explore a NASDAQ listing this year, but to what extent can we expect that to happen amid the current economic climate?

On Under the Radar, Drive Time’s finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Gerald Tan, Founder and Managing Director, G8.
