Windward Energy co-founder joins Hypercube to support long-term growth, governance and capital strategy.

Hypercube, the AI Decision Intelligence platform for the energy sector, has appointed leading energy entrepreneur and investor Stuart George as Non-Executive Director, further strengthening its board as the business enters its next phase of growth.

The appointment comes as Hypercube continues to scale its Decision Intelligence platform, CAIRN, expand its portfolio of AI modules for the energy sector and accelerate growth across the UK energy market.

Stuart brings two decades of experience in corporate finance, as well as building, funding and scaling businesses across the energy and infrastructure sectors.

In 2017, Stuart co-founded the Edinburgh-based Windward Energy Group, to develop large scale energy infrastructure across the UK.  Within the group, they set up and launched Bute Energy, Green GEN Cymru and Haldane Energy. As Managing Director of Bute Energy from 2022-2025, he led the company through a period of rapid growth, scaling it into one of the UK’s largest independent onshore wind developers with a development portfolio of more than 2GW.

In 2025 Bute Energy and Green GEN Cymru strengthened the relationship with the principal funding partner, Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP), securing more than £600 million of investment to develop and deliver critical onshore wind and grid infrastructure.

Alongside his work in the energy sector, Stuart is an investor and co-founder of Edinburgh based investment platform LSG Capital.

As Non-Executive Director, Stuart will work closely with Hypercube’s leadership team to help shape the company’s long-term business strategy, strengthen governance, support future capital planning and help position the business for sustainable long-term growth.

Adam Sroka, CEO and Co-Founder of Hypercube, said: “We’ve reached an exciting stage in Hypercube’s journey. Over the last year we’ve accelerated our evolution into a product-led AI platform company and expanded our customer base across the energy sector.

"As we scale, it’s important that we continue strengthening the business with leaders who have first-hand experience of building companies, securing investment and navigating high-growth environments.

"Stuart has done exactly that. He has built some of the UK’s most ambitious energy businesses from the ground up, secured significant institutional investment and understands the commercial realities of scaling organisations. His strategic insight and experience will be invaluable as we continue building Hypercube. I’m delighted to welcome him to the board.”

Stuart George, Non-Executive Director at Hypercube, said: “Hypercube has a focus on solving genuine industry challenges. The team combines deep energy expertise with exceptional AI capability, and CAIRN stands apart because it’s been built specifically for the complexities of the energy sector. I’m looking forward to working with the team to help shape the next stage of the company’s growth, strengthen its long-term strategy and support its future ambitions.”

The appointment further strengthens Hypercube’s board, as Stuart joins Bridgit Hartland-Johnson, global energy strategist and Non-Executive Director for Hypercube since November 2025.  

Over the past year, Hypercube has continued to build momentum with the launch of multiple AI solutions across procurement, project management, contract intelligence and asset operations, while achieving AWS Energy & Utilities Competency in recognition of its specialist expertise delivering AI and cloud solutions for the energy industry.

Stuart’s appointment reflects Hypercube’s continued investment in the governance, leadership and strategic capability required to support the company’s long-term ambition of becoming the leading AI platform for the energy sector.
