Power & Energy Advisory
Independent energy services for large corporate buyers, power providers, and infrastructure investors making high-stakes decisions about clean firm power, grid constraints, data center energy optimization, and long-term investment strategy.
Evaluate clean firm power technologies, including natural gas with CCS, battery storage, geothermal, nuclear, and small modular reactors. Assess technical feasibility, financial viability, emissions impact, and deployability across front-of-the-meter and behind-the-meter applications.
Assess grid constraints, quantify system impacts, evaluate interconnection challenges, and identify advanced transmission technologies and flexible load strategies that reduce grid costs and unlock capacity for speed-to-power.
Design and optimize energy portfolios that balance technology mix, procurement requirements, emissions goals, cost, reliability, and evolving power accounting standards.
Decarbonize site-level assets in alignment with SBTi’s asset decarbonization plan methodology, enhancing operational performance and site-level economics.
Develop strategies that assess risks, incorporate social and policy considerations, support constructive community engagement, improve project acceptance, and deliver holistic benefits.
Strategy & Analytics
Science-grounded strategy and analytics for organizations translating energy and climate commitments into practical roadmaps, investment decisions, and implementation priorities.
Navigate the intersections of energy systems, greenhouse gas emissions accounting, carbon markets, policy, and emerging technologies with intelligence built from decades of experience in technology diligence, government affairs, and commercial strategy.
Translate climate and energy transition commitments into practical decarbonization roadmaps that quantify trade-offs, prioritize interventions, align commercial objectives, and is designed to support alignment with applicable and evolving requirements.
Quantify, model, and benchmark emissions across operations, value chains, products, projects, and portfolios to identify hotspots, prioritize high-impact opportunities, and build credible baselines for reporting and investment decisions.
Environmental Markets
Environmental market advisory for buyers, investors, producers, and project developers navigating carbon credits, energy attribute certificates, sustainable aviation fuel certificates, insets, and other market instruments.
Navigate complex environmental markets with the policy, technical, and commercial insight needed to mitigate risk, identify high-impact opportunities, align with emerging frameworks, and make decisions that hold up under scrutiny.
Bring credible environmental offerings to market with better project design, buyer-ready positioning, methodology alignment, diligence readiness, and a viable commercialization path to buyers, partners, and capital.
Evaluate the quality, risk, and claims integrity of environmental credits and related market instruments through bespoke diligence and the Diligence Collection, our curated set of projects reviewed using our diligence framework.
Build and manage carbon credit and environmental attribute portfolios that balance quality, cost, availability, delivery risk, acceptability, and long-term climate objectives as reporting frameworks and standards continue to evolve.
Identify eligible opportunities and design programs that turn supply chain emissions reductions or removals into credible environmental credits and claims.
Natural Capital
Natural capital advisory for investors, asset managers, and companies with land and agricultural exposure, translating nature dependencies into financially material decisions across risk, disclosure, land-based assets, and supply chains.
Build credible decarbonization roadmaps for land-intensive supply chains by identifying hotspots, aligning with evolving requirements, and prioritizing reduction and removal strategies based on feasibility, cost, and impact.
Identify, quantify, and respond to nature-related risks across operations, supply chains, and real asset portfolios, with practical guidance on TNFD, EUDR, CSRD, emerging protocols, and resilience and adaptation strategies.
Assess natural capital risks and opportunities across forestry, agriculture, and land-based assets to inform disclosure and asset strategies grounded in ecological, carbon, and climate durability considerations.
