The Founders Story

Stuart George and Lawson Steele founded LSG Capital together in 2023, having been business partners for over a decade. They met at the investment group Parabola in 2014 and left together to co-found the Windward Energy group Bute Energy, Green GEN Cymru, and Haldane Energy.

Within Windward, they helped build one of the UK's largest independent onshore renewable energy developers, alongside its grid infrastructure business, Green GEN Cymru, attracting more than £600 million of institutional capital from partners including Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners one of the world's largest dedicated infrastructure investors and the Wales Pension Partnership.

They also incubated and scaled Haldane Energy, a long-duration energy storage business.

Within LSG, they bring that same discipline sourcing, capitalising, building real assets, and scaling operational capability to real estate and hospitality.

Miranda Lamont

Miranda runs the operational and governance engine of LSG board and reporting cadence, management information, finance operations and lender reporting, and the systems that let the platform run multiple assets cleanly.

She joined LSG from the Windward Energy group, where she was Business Manager first at Bute Energy and then at Green GEN Cymru holding the corporate rhythm of institutionally-backed businesses and working directly alongside the Managing Director and CEO. She brings that same discipline to LSG: board-grade reporting, financial control, and the operational backbone that lets a small platform scale without losing its grip.
