“I got to know Verena during a joined consultancy on Capacity Development for the Department of Energy of the Philippines. We supported the DOE in conducting trainings, enabled participation in international trainings and worked on institutionalisation of the capacity development efforts within the HR management of DOE. She is highly motivated in her work, works efficiently, structures. Further, she is pragmatic and understands the challenges between content and development approach. I hope we can work on other projects together in the future”

“I have known Verena since 2008 when I worked with her in a small-scale renewable energy programme to facilitate among eight line ministries. Further, I assisted her with her PhD to collaborate with my hosting institute the Joint graduate School for Energy and the Environment (JGSEE). Besides her excellent analytical skills, I appreciate her management and go-do attitude.”

“Verena has been working for Eckrohrkessel GmbH two years as a part-time business development manager for Southeast Asia. Due to her vast network, especially to donor agencies and international organisations she managed to get quick insights into the market and make ERK visible beyond our liscensees network.”

“Verena has assisted in our EU-supported Access to Sustainable Energy Programme (ASEP) since February 2018. Her focus is to boost the capacity development aspect in our programme by setting up the goals and time plan, budget and support the recruitment of national staff. She is very reliable, hardworking, and demonstrated strong management skills that help facilitate our CapDev activities. Our partners from the Department of Energy appreciate her work too.”

“It’s such a great pleasure working with Beate. She is dedicated, thorough and knows what she’s talking about. If you choose to work with her, you get clarity and an honest opinion of someone with a lot of knowhow.”
