  "account": "Sheffield Green, a human resources provider for the clean energy sector, is seeking acquisitions in the maintenance of wind power infrastructure to diversify its revenue sources. The company has advanced talks to acquire a majority stake in a firm in Asia and is also discussing potential deals with several European players. CEO Bryan Kee emphasized the importance of recurring revenue, as wind turbines require constant maintenance over their 15 to 20-year lifespan. He aims to acquire at least two or three companies, merge them, and expand geographical coverage. Sheffield, which lists on the Singapore Exchange’s Catalist board, has a training arm called Trainergy that offers GWO and Opito-certified courses. The training business grew significantly in FY2026, expanding from US$209,443 in the previous year to US$1.7 million. Sheffield is also exploring opportunities in Japan, where it sees potential for offshore wind development starting from 2030, despite Mitsubishi Corp’s recent withdrawal from three Japanese offshore wind projects.",
