Garikoitz Sarriegi Etxeberria is a Project Engineer at Kiwa PI Berlin, specialising in power electronics and energy-storage-related systems. With a PhD in Power Electronics from RWTH Aachen University, he brings over a decade of experience translating advanced R&D into deployable solutions for battery systems, converters, and grid-connected applications.

His work sits where theory meets bankable reality, supporting the design, optimisation, and reliability of technologies that underpin modern BESS projects. At the BESS Business & Development Forum, Garikoitz shares an engineering-driven perspective on how robust power electronics and system design directly influence performance, risk, and long-term project value.
