Frank Coenen

Frank Coenen shares InControl SA’s focus on specialised operations in renewable energy, project development, project financing, and offshore wind energy.

InControl SA has been building itself as a reputable brand across the globe since 2005, offering state-of-the-art know-how and leadership through the different phases of the development, non-recourse financing, construction, and operation of renewable energy projects —in particular, wind farms. Its team boasts a solid track record of more than 20 years consolidated experience with multiple onshore and offshore wind farms already in operation.

Frank Coenen is co-founder of InControl SA and works alongside chairman and co-shareholder Preben Poulsen. From their head office in Luxembourg, they have jointly overseen and managed the operations of the successful Belwind I (165 megawatt) project, the construction of Northwind (216 MW), and the development of Belwind II (165 MW) and Northwester II (224 MW).

Frank has a masters degree in law as well as a degree in business administration and economics. After graduating from university, he worked for a major bank in France and the UK for seven years before moving to Belgium." “I then became an entrepreneur,"” Frank says, “"meaning that I left the bank and acquired a business in the chemical industry. That is where I learned everything I know about doing business.”"
