We first met Jillis and started working with him during the Microgrid Webinar series which QuinteQ hosted back in 2020. A nice blast from the past (and proof that Jillis has not aged a bit) can be found here:
- September 15, 2020 – Introduction to C&I microgrids: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ro7Vqe83eaM&t=1s
- September 29, 2020 – Deep Dive into C&I microgrids: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfaWHLiDuBE
Ever since that event, Jillis has been a friend of the company and throughout the years has provided QuinteQ with guidance, wisdom and much needed advice.
For those who don’t know it, Jillis is one of the founders of the European Association for Energy Storage and for many years was the Chairman of Energy Storage NL, the Dutch equivalent thereof. Every new and upcoming industry needs brave cornerstones who are willing to create a solid foundation for growth and Jillis was just that for the Dutch and larger European energy storage ecosystem.
It is therefore that we are truly pleased to announce that as of January 1, 2025, Jillis will be formally forging his involvement with the QuinteQ mission as an official member of the QuinteQ Advisory Board.
Jillis is a big brain with many talents is gifted with both a broad and deep insight into the energy storage space and as such, he will provide strategic, tactical, technological and business development guidance to QuinteQ as well as eQiP Energy, our energy-storage-as-a-service company.
You never walk alone and with Jillis, we have just added some long legs to our company journey!
