Jeremy Crane established Yellow Door Energy in 2015 to combine his energy expertise with his passion for supporting businesses in emerging markets. With over 20 years of experience leading the global energy transition, he currently works with large organisations to reduce energy costs, secure reliable energy supply, and lower environmental impact.

Under Jeremy’s leadership, Yellow Door Energy has rapidly grown into a leading distributed solar developer, with more than 400 megawatts of awarded solar projects across the Middle East and Africa. The company’s shareholders include Actis, the International Finance Corporation (IFC), Mitsui & Co., Ltd., and The Arab Energy Fund (TAEF).

Jeremy’s passion for renewable energy was shaped by his early experience working on wind farms and power plants in the United States and Central America. He further strengthened his solar expertise by founding a business that developed USD 40 million in rooftop solar projects in Canada, and by developing, financing, and commissioning USD 400 million of utility-scale solar projects across Europe and Asia for a private equity firm.

As an industry thought leader, Jeremy regularly speaks at international conferences and contributes to leading media outlets to promote clean energy and share in-depth renewable energy insights. His achievements have been recognised through numerous industry awards, including the Leadership Achievement in Solar Award (2023) from the Middle East Solar Industry Association (MESIA) and the Distinguished Industry Contributor Award (2025) from Solarabic.

Jeremy holds an MBA from INSEAD in France and a Bachelor of Applied Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Waterloo, Canada.
