Development banks
Technical advisory, procurement document reviews, bid evaluation support, and implementation oversight.

SOLAR · BESS · LNG · MICROGRIDS
Technical advice and project oversight for development banks, utilities, EPCs, IPPs, private islands, and resorts. Grounded in the realities of delivering energy projects across the Caribbean.

A PRACTICAL PARTNER
Energy projects bring together equipment, contracts, contractors, and controls. Asante helps you examine the assumptions, identify the gaps, and decide what needs to happen next.
Engage us for a focused review, support at a critical milestone, or ongoing oversight throughout your project.
WHO WE ADVISE
Different clients. Different responsibilities.
A scope built around your needs.
Technical advisory, procurement document reviews, bid evaluation support, and implementation oversight.
Solar, storage, and LNG planning, technical tender support, integration reviews, and owner’s engineering.
Design coordination, constructability reviews, equipment evaluation, QA/QC, and commissioning readiness.
Project evaluation, technical procurement support, and oversight through development and delivery.
Hybrid power planning, LNG and storage evaluation, fuel logistics assessment, and phased improvements.
Energy system reviews that consider guest experience, reliability, operating costs, and future growth.
CONSULTING SERVICES
Clear scopes. Useful deliverables.
Direct access to the principal.
Evaluate system concepts, equipment selections, and integration requirements before they become expensive field problems.
Give owners a practical technical perspective on progress, quality, and the decisions that affect delivery.
Translate project requirements into clear specifications and compare proposals on a consistent basis.
Review the evidence needed to move from installation to testing and an orderly handover.

INTEGRATED ENERGY SYSTEMS
A successful project also depends on clear responsibilities, workable specifications, installation quality, and a coordinated testing process.
Asante brings technical and field experience to the interfaces between these systems, helping clients ask the right questions before accepting a solution.
Evaluate LNG as part of the project’s fuel and generation strategy. Advisory can address fuel supply assumptions, logistics, infrastructure interfaces, generation requirements, procurement, and coordination with solar and battery storage. The required studies and specialist inputs are defined for each assignment.

SELECTED EXPERIENCE
Examples of Michael Vance’s and Asante’s assignments.
Each role is described individually.
BAHAMAS / TECHNICAL ADVISORY
Technical advisory work involving renewable energy procurement, tender reviews, terms of reference, and operating criteria.
Support associated with IDB-financed energy initiatives in the Bahamas, including review of technical procurement documents and emergency operation criteria.
GUYANA / BATTERY STORAGE
Owner’s engineering experience on a battery energy storage assignment associated with an IDB-supported project.
Michael Vance’s battery storage owner’s engineering experience informs equipment review, technical coordination, and oversight assignments.
U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS / MICROGRID
Balance-of-system construction delivery, project management, and construction management experience on an industrial microgrid.
Asante’s scope included solar balance-of-system work, electrical infrastructure, grounding, trenching, and contractor coordination. This reference reflects the contracted delivery scope; it does not claim an independent commissioning-agent appointment.
BAHAMAS / ENGINEERING & MANAGEMENT
Engineer of Record experience and project and construction management during part of the expansion’s delivery.
Michael Vance served as Engineer of Record and supported project and construction management. The management engagement ended when construction was approximately 40% complete.
Experience includes advisory and delivery roles. The scope of each new consulting engagement is agreed specifically for that project.
MICHAEL VANCE / PRESIDENTWORK DIRECTLY WITH THE PRINCIPAL
Michael Vance leads Asante Energy, bringing electrical industry experience and a practical understanding of renewable energy project delivery.
His work spans consulting, engineering, project management, and construction management, with experience in the Caribbean, North America, and Africa.
That background helps connect the technical review to what can actually be procured, installed, tested, and handed over. Clients work directly with Michael, with specialist support coordinated to suit the assignment.
