Gavin Catto is a director and technical leader in renewable energy with a PhD in Electrical Engineering (Renewable Energy) from UMIST and more than two decades of senior experience driving strategy and project delivery. As Director of Green Cat Renewables he oversees business operations and acts as technical director on major projects, combining hands-on engineering expertise with commercial leadership. His earlier roles as Associate Director at Entec UK and Senior Consultant at AEA Technology reflect deep consultancy experience across energy systems. Based in Linlithgow, Scotland, he pairs academic rigor with practical implementation, bringing rare continuity from research through to deployed renewable projects. A long career beginning in the late 1990s gives him institutional knowledge of evolving policy and technology landscapes that many newer practitioners lack. Despite a brief, playful GitHub bio ("on my computr"), his focus remains squarely on delivering technical and strategic value in the renewables sector.
