Turning Ambition into Investable Projects
AEC is an AI forward specialist investment advisory firm and deal-platform in the energy infrastructure and transition space focussing on financing energy transition projects, spanning across the UK, EU and India.
AEC, leveraging AEC Studio, is disrupting one of the most rigorous and traditional forms of investment banking, Project Finance, by making institutional-grade due diligence and deal execution faster, smarter and more accessible.
With Studio, investors, develops and investment advisory firms can originate large scale capital intensive commercially viable projects, assess bankability, arrange capital and strategic partners, and underwrite the commercial, technical, regulatory and financial fundamentals that make large-scale clean-energy assets investable.
Or simply reach out to AEC and we will do it for you, powered by AEC Studio.
Our Hypothesis:
The energy transition isn’t just about technology — it’s about systems thinking. Projects succeed when economics, regulation, financing, and risk management are addressed together. Too often, these pieces are treated in silos, leading to delays, stranded assets, or projects that never reach Financial Closure.
With AEC Studio, we are innovating financing that goes beyond the traditional playbook:
Financing structures that adapt to uncertain revenue streams and new business models
Insurance products that de-risk FOAK technologies and unlock lending appetite
Regulatory navigation that helps developers anticipate — not react to — policy shifts
Collaborative frameworks where financiers, developers, insurers, and regulators work from the same page
Our Approach:
With AEC Studio, we bring these threads together and execute with accuracy, efficiency and systems thinking:
Evaluate projects holistically — not just the business case, but the bankability case
Craft financing and risk-mitigation strategies that match investor appetite with project needs
Facilitate dialogue across the ecosystem to align stakeholders and accelerate decisions
Focus relentlessly on enabling projects to cross the FID threshold — the most critical milestone in turning ambition into execution
Our Values
In our mission to disrupt investment advisory for energy transition and infrastructure, we operate Aboveboard, show up with Authenticity, apply Acuity to every strategy, and take full Accountability for every outcome. With Audacity, we challenge convention, and with Adaptability, we navigate a fast-shifting global landscape to drive meaningful change.

About the Founder
Shubhda Kaushik
Shubhda Kaushik brings together 15+ years of global experience across project finance, strategy consulting, and project development, starting her professional journey in 2009 with Reliance Energy in India.
She has structured billion-dollar non-recourse deals, advised governments and corporates on decarbonisation strategies, and worked in strategy & advisory roles for Power, Shipping and Green Molecules companies.
She combines financial acumen, strategic problem-solving, and hands-on delivery to design robust financing structures, de-risk projects, and craft investor-ready stories that unlock capital.
Because ultimately, the energy transition depends not just on bold ideas — but on making those ideas investable.
Shubhda's experience sits at the intersection of capital, strategy, and energy transition - with experience in project finance (SCB, Reliance), consulting (McKinsey, Bain, Maersk), and project management (Power2X), she has worked with investors, governments, and Fortune 500s to unlock growth in renewables and clean molecules across geographies.
Educated as a Civil Engineer at Indian Institute of Technology (IIT-BHU), Varanasi and in management at XLRI, with CFA training, she brings a global, multi-disciplinary lens to every project — always focused on one outcome: building energy transition projects that don’t just inspire, but get built. Shubhda has won "Academic Excellence Award" and "Merit Scholarships" in CBSE Board Examinations while cracking IIT JEE, one of the toughest entrance exams in the world, clearly showcasing a combination of brilliance & hardwork from early years.
From The Founder's Desk..
I spent the last 15 years moving across India, Southeast Asia, the Nordics, and the UK — from developing thermal power projects at Reliance Infrastructure, structuring renewable finance deals at Standard Chartered, to shaping strategy at McKinsey, Bain, and Maersk, to developing & due-diligencing green molecules projects at Power2X.
Along the way, I saw the same pattern repeat: visionary projects stall at the bankability hurdle. My passion lies in bridging that gap. I believe this is the decisive decade for energy transition, and the only way to deliver at scale is to combine sharp strategic thinking, rigorous finance, and deep systems understanding.
That conviction is why I founded Alternative Energy Company (AEC) — to help developers, investors, and corporates turn ambition into investable reality.
