Energy & Decarbonisation

How does the world create a clean, affordable and reliable energy future?

Much of the world, including Australia, has pledged to achieve net zero emissions over the coming decades. Many organisations – including ours – have made similar commitments.

The implications for the economy will be great, from the need to build new infrastructure to the transformation of our workforce and the ways in which we use our land. From battery storage to hydrogen, groundbreaking innovations are already helping to improve the quality of people’s lives and deliver nation-building change.

Australia has the potential to be a renewable energy superpower. We are helping businesses, governments, regulators and investors to help them seize the moment.

Our work includes

  • Generators

    Australia's electricity generation sector is evolving as we transition from coal and hydroelectricity to a mix incorporating renewable energy and gas. We can support your efforts on issues including strategy development and market analysis, social license, the rights and involvement of traditional owners, skill development, and accommodation for temporary workforces.

  • Network operators

    Transmission networks allow the bulk transport of electricity at high voltages from a range of generators to major demand centers. We can support you with energy system transition, decarbonisation and net-zero policy, skill development, regulatory oversight and evaluation, and economic and data analysis.

  • Retailers

    Retailers trade electricity on wholesale and retail markets, and build relationships with consumers. We can support you with customer experience strategy and design, digital strategy and operating models, product design and commercialisation, and digital asset management.

  • Market operators

    Australia’s wholesale markets exist to support greater competition and investment in the electricity industry and allow generators and wholesale purchasers flexibility in how they buy or sell energy. We can support you with culture change and leadership development, workforce planning and digitisation, operating model design and implementation, and data strategy.

  • Policymakers

    The Australian energy sector operates in a complex regulatory environment. We can help regulators and regulated entities have a real impact with policy statements, collaboration forums and consultation with communities, staff and industry. We also help policymakers to smooth the path to net zero through policy and regulatory development, stakeholder engagement, and evaluation.

  • Organisations seeking to cut emissions

    Consumers and regulators are putting increasing pressure on organisations to cut emissions. The solution lies in changing practices across organisations – in ways that stick. We can help you to establish a decarbonisation strategy and make the cultural and policy changes required to put it into action.
