Independent advice for energy boards and investors

Board facilitation, transaction due diligence, market intelligence and risk — delivered by two principals with no development, trading or transaction interests of our own.

What we do

Four practices, one evidence base

Every engagement draws on the same market data and the same two people. You deal with the principals throughout — there is no team of juniors behind the proposal.

Board Advisory & Facilitation

Strategy and risk workshops facilitated directly with the board, from agenda design through to the written strategy the board can issue as its own.

Why independent

No position to protect

01

Conflict-free

We do not develop projects, trade energy, or take success fees on transactions. The advice you receive is not shaped by a position elsewhere in the market.

02

Evidence, not opinion

Market views are grounded in our own dispatch model and price forecasts rather than third-party consensus, and we will show you the workings.

03

Engineering, commercial and legal

An electrical engineer and lawyer alongside an investment analyst. Technical, commercial and regulatory questions are answered in the same room.

Selected experience
