Building tomorrow's world

We believe that the alliance of Tech and People is the key to solving the major challenges of the future.

The inicio story

It all begins at a wedding in September 2021.
Lucas was working for a French independent renewable energy producer called Akuo.
Romain was a web developer at Theodo and Thomas was already working on renewable energy issues in Europe at CVA, a well-known strategy consulting firm.
Thomas, Romain and Lucas have been friends for 10 years and share a common passion: adventure.
A heated discussion over a glass of champagne will be the spark that ignites their greatest adventure.
Since May 2022, they have been sharing it with a team of enthusiasts.
Together, they realize that access to land is key for renewable energy producers who lack the tools to identify and de-risk it on a large scale, in a context of accelerating efforts to combat climate change.

Inicio’s mission

Towards a more responsible energy future

In an ideal world, renewable energies and key infrastructures linked to the energy transition are positioned in the best possible locations, integrating global needs as well as local constraints. We created Inicio to make this ideal a reality.

Our mission is to provide solar producers with the most viable projects that respect the local environment.

Three values guide our team in every decision they make:

True

Place respect between people above all medals and speak frankly and kindly.

Impact

Reaching out to as many people as possible and keeping pace with the world.

Team

Putting the team’s interests ahead of your own.
