What others say about us.

European Commission

Th!nk E played a key role in the Citizen-Led Renovation project by keeping the consortium aligned and focused, while staying close to what actually works on the ground. They were easy to work with, responsive, and particularly strong in bridging EU policy objectives and practical, citizen-led renovation solutions in both directions — bringing policy closer to reality, and real-world experience back into the policy discussion.

Their hands-on, problem-solving approach made a real difference to the smooth running and overall quality of the project.

Julien Tami
DG ENER Policy Officer
European Parliament

In the context of the study on 'The role of Direct Air Capture technologies in the EU’s decarbonisation effort', which was requested by the European Parliament’s Committee on Industry, Research and Energy (ITRE), Th!nk E provided valuable support by bridging technical and scientific analysis with European policy considerations.

Their ability to translate advanced and complex technologies into clear, policy-relevant insights, while integrating perspectives from practitioners and stakeholders, was particularly appreciated.

Matteo Ciucci
Parliamentary research administrator
Energent

For Energent, it is always a pleasure to collaborate with Think-E. The team brings outstanding expertise and a strong European network, which is reflected in everything they do. Professionalism goes together with enthusiasm and positive energy, making every meeting both productive and enjoyable.

Kamp C

Th!nk E guided us through the participation trajectory for the Kamp C Renewable Energy Community with great care and clarity. They succeeded in creating a safe, open and inclusive space and process for dialogue, making complex technical, legal and social questions understandable and engaging for our wide range of stakeholders. They translated complexity into clear choices and helped us build real momentum towards an energy community that is broadly supported and future-proof.

Their guidance helped us turn shared ideas into concrete next steps, while keeping collective ownership, trust and social impact at the heart of the project.

Maro Saridaki
Project Coordinator
PPMI | Part of the Verian Group

We’ve been working with Th!nk-E for nearly three years now, and our collaboration has been genuinely frictionless. Our teams share a positive, can-do, and client-focused mindset, which makes working together highly effective.

In a short period of time, we learned an incredible amount during our trajectory with Think E. They reviewed our projects, work processes, impact and organisation. They continuously asked critical questions, looked at things from different angles and provided one new insight after another.

Their extensive expertise and fresh perspective have undoubtedly been a real added value!

Silicon Austria

Th!nk E was pivotal in producing an excellent proposal for the InSPIRE project. They employed an obvious and profound expertise in constructing the proposal by systematically articulating the project objectives in terms of those defined by the EU-policy, carefully balancing between the needs and capabilities of the consortium partners and the advanced research questions. The proposal was successful due to their experience in addressing all relevant details – from resource allocation to the less-obvious specifics of a RIA project, while guiding the consortium partners in a consistent and timely manner.
