GLP is pleased to announce several significant new appointments within its Clean Energy team in Europe.
Under the leadership of Stefano Fissolo, Senior Director, GLP Europe Clean Energy, the team is expanding its capabilities to meet the increasing demand from customers for clean energy solutions across the logistics sector.
GLP Europe Clean Energy invests in and operates onsite renewable energy solutions to decarbonise the built environment by deploying rooftop solar, battery storage, electric vehicle infrastructure and other adjacent technologies.
New appointments across operations, partnerships and investments to strengthen team and accelerate business growth:

Manuel has ~15 years’ experience in the energy industry sector across asset management and engineering, having managed and/or overseen the operations of more than 1.3 GW of projects across renewables technologies including solar PV, onshore wind, battery energy storage and biomass. Manuel joins from Glennmont, where he managed the development, construction, operations and divestment of renewable plants across Europe, and has held previous roles working as a consultant, project engineer, and technical manager at various reputable renewable energy corporations.
Pablo has been appointed Director, Business Development, focused on originating and developing renewables projects and creating the offering suite of onsite and offsite power purchase agreements for GLP Clean Energy customers.

GLP continues to support the global energy transition by investing in solar, wind, electric vehicles and battery storage and charging technologies for its assets. At the end of 2022, the firm had 700+ megawatts (MW) of solar capacity installed on the rooftops of its real estate portfolio and third-party rooftops which contributes to lowering CO2 emissions. The clean energy generated is sold back to customers and utility companies, which has the potential to help reduce the pressure on local electricity grids and ties into GLP’s overall ESG and sustainability goals.
Stefano Fissolo, Senior Director, GLP Europe Clean Energy, commented: “Our team’s collective track record spans the entire technology spectrum of the energy transition and covers the full project lifecycle of renewable energy assets both from a transactional and operational standpoint. This will be an invaluable asset as we continue to expand our activities. We are seeing record levels of demand for decarbonisation solutions from across our existing and prospective customer base, as the logistics industry increasingly understands the important role it has to play in the global energy transition. We’re proud to be a sustainability leader in the sector, and with our strong and growing team we will continue to push innovation and progress in this area.”
