Exposure mapping
What the business is exposed to through its fleet, its contracts and its customers — quantified where we can quantify it.
Service
Risk appetite statements a board can apply to an actual decision, strategic risk registers that survive contact with the market, and reporting directors can read.
Energy sector risk registers tend to accumulate. They record what went wrong before, rated on a scale nobody trusts, and they rarely say what the business should stop doing. Meanwhile the risks that determine the outcome — a price collapse in the middle of the day, a connection that arrives three years late, a counterparty that renegotiates — sit outside the register entirely.
We work the other way round: start from the strategic exposures the business actually carries, then build the appetite statements and the register to match.
Approach
What the business is exposed to through its fleet, its contracts and its customers — quantified where we can quantify it.
The board names the risks it believes matter, facilitated so that the discussion is not anchored to last year's register.
Appetite statements and a strategic register drafted from what the board said, in the board's language.
A reporting format management can maintain and directors can read in the time they have.
Who we do this for
Government-owned generators setting appetite ahead of a capital programme; retailers exposed to wholesale volatility; miners and industrial users whose electricity supply agreements carry the risk. The common thread is a board that has to price uncertainty rather than describe it.
We can facilitate the session, quantify the exposures, or both.
