Renewables Origination Internship Programme

Engelhart was founded in 2013 by BTG Pactual Group as a commodities trading company. Our business model is "asset light" and highly diversified – giving us the ability to adapt effectively and nimbly to changing market conditions.

We have exceptional teams with diverse global backgrounds and decades of experience, and are driven by a highly collaborative culture, across products and competencies.

In 2024, Engelhart acquired Trailstone, a global energy trading and technology company. The acquisition provides us with new expertise, analytics and proprietary technology which is being used to provide risk management and optimisation services to help maximise the value of our clients' renewable power. The acquisition also expanded Engelhart's capabilities into physical natural gas across North America, a critical fuel to support the energy transition.
