What sea breeze consulting does

Sea Breeze Consulting is a Norway-based, founder-led engineering consultancy founded in 2023 in Haugesund by three senior engineers (Henrik Kirkeby, Petter Sveindal, John Sverre Rønnevik) with combined experience exceeding 60 years across offshore wind, power systems, defense, and oil & gas. The firm delivers specialized consulting across four service lines: electrical infrastructure design (export systems, inter-array layout optimization, grid connection studies), offshore substation package management, sustainability and HSSE support, and project management resourcing for offshore wind developers, utilities, and energy companies. Its core deliverables are advisory and embedded-engineer engagements, with execution supported by industry-standard simulation tools (DIgSILENT PowerFactory, Simulink) combined with custom Python scripting for layout optimization and cable-loss modeling, including collaboration with Vind Technologies on inter-array simulation functionality.

The go-to-market is consultative, sales-led, and project-based, targeting enterprise clients primarily in Norway, Sweden, and Scotland. Pricing is opaque and engagement-by-engagement, with multi-year contract cadences typical of offshore wind development cycles. Commercial traction is evidenced by named references including Vattenfall (Norway's first offshore wind tender), Green Volt/Vårgrønn+Flotation Energy (Europe's first commercial-scale 560 MW floating offshore wind farm), Ellevio (Galene and Olof Skötkonung), Hafslund, METCentre, Karmsund Group, Vind Technologies, and MIDO/Wedge Global. Distribution is direct enterprise engagement, augmented by content marketing through the firm's Insights blog, free calculators (Klimagasskalkulator for Bygg, Reisekalkulator), Norway emission-factor datasets, and LinkedIn presence.

Revenue mechanics derive from professional services billing on multi-year engagements, with no software/SaaS platform of its own. A January 2026 strategic partnership with Greenly makes Sea Breeze the certified Nordics delivery partner for Greenly's climate accounting, ESG, LCA, and CBAM modules, extending the sustainability practice onto a third-party digital platform. The firm is privately held by its three founders with no disclosed external investors, funding rounds, or revenue figures, and operates with 1-10 total employees.
