"One thing that I have learned working on the the energy transition is that all the pieces matter – both the glamorous and the often-overlooked parts. And despite being an eternal optimist, if something sounds too good to be true, it usually is."

Dharmesh leads Baringa’s hydrogen advisory business in Great Britain and Ireland, overseeing our market fundamentals and commercial advisory offering for developers and investors.
Dharmesh joined Baringa after working most recently as Lead Commercial Adviser to the Secretary of State at the UK Department of Energy Security and Net Zero. Prior to this Dharmesh led the UK’s first Hydrogen Allocation Round, a world’s first contracts for difference competition for hydrogen production. In 2023 he agreed deals with 11 first of a kind green hydrogen production projects, the most commercial scale projects agreed at once anywhere in Europe. In his role Dharmesh also worked on the design of business models for hydrogen production, storage and power.
He has held various roles prior to this, including at the business advisory firm Flint Global and in the UK Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, advising on energy sectors including carbon capture, nuclear and renewables.
Dharmesh’s background is in economics and policy, and he loves problem solving – regaling those around him with how he would fix the UK’s big policy challenges. Away from work Dharmesh enjoys playing football and boxing (when not injured) and taking his dog, a Shiba Inu called Shoki, around the country.
