Environment, Energy & Utilities

Faced with accelerating climate change, increasing regulatory pressure, and rising energy demand, companies in the energy and utilities sectors must rethink their business models and address their environmental impact in the regions where they operate.

How we support
our clients

We work alongside stakeholders in the energy and utilities sectors — including operators, public institutions, equipment manufacturers, and government entities — across the entire value chain. Our support focuses both on business transformation and on anticipating the impacts of climate change through ecological planning.

Our areas of intervention include:

Corporate Strategy: Strategic foresight, definition and qualitative/quantitative evaluation of strategic options: financing, acquisitions and investments, operations, diversification, and growth
Marketing: Marketing strategy, offer design, pricing, customer segmentation, and segment-based profitability analysis
Regulation & Economics: Regulatory due diligence, regulatory reviews, economic modeling, market design, sector deregulation, lobbying and public affairs
Performance & Management: Design and implementation of innovation management systems and methods, HR and organizational policy development, core and support process optimization
Transformation: Business process reengineering and operational support to improve profitability and quality across core and support functions
Governance & Organization: Organizational design, corporate structuring, simplification of internal flows and governance frameworks
Ecological Planning: Assessment of climate change impacts on the territories where the company operates (living conditions, infrastructure, economic activity), analysis of direct and indirect impacts on the business (work models, data security, resilient infrastructure), identification of adaptation levers, and definition of a concrete action plan

With over 20 years of experience, we bring our clients a deep understanding of their businesses, an in-depth knowledge of their key stakeholders — including regulatory authorities and energy-intensive customers — and the ability to anticipate business model impacts from the earliest stages of strategic thinking. We also facilitate collective leadership alignment by guiding executive teams through structured and collaborative strategic dialogues
