Notes by Narsi

This trend is interesting - one in which firms whose main business was providing a service (in this case a solution and as an EPC) becoming also developers.

We saw this happening in solar, where firms realised that being an EPC was a one time revenue opportunity for a project but being a developer meant continuous revenues.

Of course, it requires a certain level of company capability and maturity (not to mention cash stacks) to explore this avenue. Presumably, GPS has reached that stage.
