Marie Pensalfini

Strategy senior consultant in the field of renewable energy and hydrogen

Globally, women account for 32 per cent of the renewable energy workforce (UN Women). A successful energy transition is one that ensures the expertise and competencies of women are recognised and valued.

Fostering female representation in the energy sector throughout a network of skilled and passionate women can only be a key towards a better tomorrow.

Senior Consultant, Hinicio
Madrid

I am currently working as a Senior consultant and for HINICIO, a strategy consultancy firm recognized as a leading player in the hydrogen field in the EMEA region and the Americas. My current focus is on Hydrogen Policy and Certification.

I am also working as the Stakeholder Platform Manager at CertifHy®, a European Commission recognised voluntary scheme for the certification of green hydrogen and derivatives. I organise the activities of our Stakeholders (Plenary, Technical Working Groups, Webinars ...)

In my previous position, I worked for 5 years at the Strategy Department of the main French Gas DSO, GRDF. I was working on long-term energy modelling and managing the French biomethane registry for Guarantees of Origin.

I am a graduate from the Bordeaux Political Sciences Institute and the Paris Dauphine University.
