Stafford has launched a new strategy focused on repowering by integrating an 11-member team led by Angelo Prete. CEO Angus Whiteley described this move as essentially "onboarding an activity that has been very much exclusive in nature already," signaling a strategic expansion in the infrastructure investment space.

The repowering strategy suggests Stafford is targeting energy infrastructure modernization, a critical segment in the global energy transition. This specialized team brings expertise to an increasingly valuable market as governments and companies accelerate efforts to update aging power generation assets with more efficient, low-carbon alternatives.

This move positions Stafford to capitalize on growing demand for infrastructure upgrades, particularly in the energy sector. By bringing in a dedicated team with specialized knowledge, the firm is signaling its commitment to becoming a significant player in the repowering market, where specialized expertise often translates to competitive advantage in infrastructure investment and portfolio returns.
