Telling the story of a European renewable energy investment platform
Renewable Power Capital
Seahorse has been a great partner for us on this journey of growth, supporting us at every step. Seahorse has been much more than a public relations & communications firm, they have been a strategic part of our communications and government relations strategy, leaning in, being proactive, and driving thought leadership. Through the initiatives Seahorse has spearheaded, we have been able to deliver a strong message to the market about who RPC is and our differentiated value proposition. Recently, we have embarked on our first government relations campaign, which Seahorse has designed and led, helping to elevate RPC as a true thought leader in the space. Seahorse is not our PR firm… they are our communications & strategic partner, fully integrated into our business.

Context
Renewable Power Capital (RPC) is an significant renewables platform, having committed €1.5bn in investment capital since its inception in Dec 2020. While the financing of renewable generation projects has not been straightforward, RPC’s post subsidy finance model is accelerating the clean energy transition while delivering long term, stable returns.
Our activity
For 4 years, Seahorse has been trusted to develop and implement RPC’s external communications strategy. This includes providing traditional press office support, collaborating with project partners to outline the scale of new renewable investments, developing social media and website content and securing conference speaker engagements. We also provide public affairs support including responding to key consultations from NESO and Ofgem, and engaging with government departments and select committees.
Seahorse has also supported RPC with its internal communications, from branding to employee engagement.
Our impact
Seahorse has increased RPC’s visibility, positioning it as a thought leader, and supported the launches of some of the largest and award-winning renewable generation and battery projects across Europe. All engagement and external communications activity has highlighted the necessity of a thriving market for post-subsidy renewables to increase the resilience of the energy system and lower costs.
