The renewable energy sector is in a period of sustained, accelerating growth. The commercial opportunities are real. So is the noise. Getting your business noticed by the right people, in the right places, with the right message has never been more important or more difficult.

​

Clothier Lacey and Co is a full-service marketing and PR agency with over 25 years of experience helping businesses communicate their value clearly and build the kind of reputation that drives commercial results. We work with renewable energy businesses across the UK to develop and deliver integrated marketing, communications and AI-enhanced strategy programmes that make a measurable difference.

​

We are not a sector boutique. We are an experienced, senior-led agency that brings the full range of marketing and PR disciplines to bear on your business, with enough sector knowledge to work in the renewables space with credibility from the first conversation.

Delivering exceptional marketing and PR support

PR and Media Relations

In a sector shaped by planning decisions, investor sentiment and public trust, your reputation is not a soft asset. It is a commercial one. We develop and manage PR programmes that build your profile in the trade and sector press, support your stakeholder relationships and position your business as a credible, reliable voice in the energy transition conversation.

​

Our media relations work in the renewables sector covers press release writing and distribution, journalist briefings, interview preparation and ongoing press office management. We have relationships across the energy trade press, national business media and regional outlets, and we understand how to position a renewables story so it gets picked up rather than ignored.

​

We also manage crisis communications and reputation protection for businesses in regulated and high-visibility sectors. If your business is facing planning challenges, regulatory scrutiny or community opposition, we have the experience to help you navigate it. Find out more about our PR services. 

​

Thought Leadership and Content Marketing

The renewable energy sector rewards expertise. Businesses that consistently demonstrate technical knowledge, commercial credibility and a clear perspective on where the market is heading build the kind of authority that accelerates procurement decisions and investor confidence.

​

We develop thought leadership programmes that put your senior team's knowledge in front of the audiences that matter. This includes long-form content such as white papers and market commentaries, contributed articles for trade publications, speaking opportunity identification and preparation, and structured content calendars that keep your business visible and credible throughout the year.

​

Our content work is integrated with your SEO strategy so that every piece of expertise you share builds your organic search visibility at the same time. Find out more about our marketing services. 

​

Digital Marketing and SEO

Most renewable energy businesses are underperforming in organic search. The sector is competitive but not as competitive as it will become, which means there is a genuine first-mover advantage available to businesses that invest in their SEO now.

We build digital marketing programmes that combine technical SEO, on-page optimisation, content strategy and link building to improve your visibility for the search terms your buyers and investors actually use. We manage paid digital campaigns across Google and LinkedIn where the commercial case justifies it, and we integrate your digital activity with your broader marketing and PR programme so every channel reinforces the others.

AI-Enhanced Marketing and Automation

AI is changing the pace at which marketing can be produced, optimised and delivered. For businesses in a fast-moving sector like renewable energy, that pace matters. We help renewable energy businesses integrate AI tools into their marketing operations responsibly and effectively, from content production and campaign planning through to market monitoring and performance analysis.

​

What sets our AI capability apart from the technology consultancies offering similar services is that we bring it within a full marketing strategy. AI tools are only as valuable as the brief and the judgement behind them. We supply both.

​

Our AI and automation services for renewable energy clients cover AI readiness assessment, AI-enhanced content and campaign support, and marketing automation setup and management. Find out more about our AI and automation services. 

​

Investor Communications and Stakeholder Engagement

Raising capital, managing investor relations and maintaining the confidence of funders and institutional partners requires a level of communications discipline that not every marketing agency can deliver.

 

We work with renewable energy businesses to develop clear, consistent investor-facing messaging, manage stakeholder communications across project lifecycles and ensure your organisation is presented compellingly to the financial audiences that support your growth.

​

This work sits alongside our broader PR and marketing activity rather than operating in isolation, which means your investor story and your market-facing story are always aligned.

​

Social Media and Brand Communications

Social media in the renewables sector is an underused asset for most businesses. The audiences are there: LinkedIn is where the procurement leads, the investors and the policy influencers spend their time. The businesses that show up consistently with credible, useful content build the kind of brand recognition that makes every other part of the sales process easier.

​

We develop and manage social media strategies for renewable energy businesses that combine consistent organic content with targeted paid activity where it makes commercial sense. Everything is tied back to your broader marketing strategy so your social presence reinforces rather than sits apart from your other activity. Find out more about social media marketing service. 

​

Events and Awards

The energy sector has a strong event culture. Whether you are looking to make an impression at a major trade show, host a client event, manage a project launch or position your business for a sector award, we plan and deliver events that leave the right impression.

​

Our events team works alongside our PR team to ensure every event you participate in or host, is supported by the right communications activity before, during and after. Find out more about our event management services.

FAQs​​

How do you approach PR for renewable energy companies?

We start by understanding your audiences, your commercial objectives and the stories inside your organisation. We then build a media relations strategy around those stories, targeting the publications and journalists that reach the buyers, investors and policymakers you need to influence. Everything is measured against commercial outcomes, not just coverage volume.​

​

Can you help us with investor communications?

Yes. We work with renewable energy businesses to develop clear, consistent investor-facing messaging and manage stakeholder communications across project and funding lifecycles. This work sits alongside broader PR and marketing activity so your investor story and your market-facing story remain aligned.​

​

Do you have experience in specific renewables subsectors?

We work across solar, wind, battery storage and broader energy services. Our approach adapts to your specific technical and commercial context. We invest time understanding your business and your market before recommending any activity.

 

What does your AI and automation service involve for renewables businesses?

We help renewable energy businesses assess where AI can genuinely add value to their marketing, then build and manage the tools and workflows to make it happen. This covers content production acceleration, campaign optimisation, market monitoring and marketing automation. We do not approach AI as a technology project. We approach it as a marketing strategy question. Find out more: /ai-and-automation

​

Do you work with businesses outside the North East?

Yes. While we are based in Newcastle upon Tyne, we work with clients across the UK. The renewable energy sector is a national industry and our client work reflects that.

 

How do I get started?

Contact us and we will arrange a straightforward conversation about your business, your goals and whether we are the right fit. No pitch documents, no lengthy procurement process. Just an honest conversation.
