As countries race to reduce emissions, the shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy has never been more important or economically viable. From supporting the planning of new offshore wind developments to overseeing the acquisition of solar PV facilities, our renewable energy consultants are supporting clients with the transition to net zero energy.

Renewable energy generation continues to diversify. We’re supporting clients across the onshore and offshore wind, floating and land-based solar PV, hydro-power, wave energy and geothermal markets, providing both technical solutions and advisory support. Working together with our clients, we’re shaping the future of decarbonised energy. 

The renewables landscape

As an energy engineering consultancy, we work with clients to develop new approaches to generation, capacity and storage - onshore or offshore. We’re working with clients across Asia to unlock the future of offshore wind, exploring the technical requirements needed for seabed installation and evaluating the feasibility of weather conditions and the right solutions to achieving net zero energy.  

Overcoming intermittency is key to the value and viability of renewable energy systems. We are working on battery storage, resilience planning and effective system integration to help clients implement renewable sources with confidence.

Technical and commercial expertise

Our work on new renewable energy infrastructure like offshore wind farms or solar PV arrays, draws on our wider strengths in structural and civil engineering. Clients benefit from this breadth of related expertise, from traditional engineering to data-driven tools that can manage increasingly complex renewable energy systems.

As the renewable energy industry continues to develop, new players are entering the market. We help clients across the renewable energy sector to acquire or sell renewable asset portfolios. Our advisory team provides technical due diligence, owner’s engineer roles and lender’s technical advisor roles, ensuring clients get the best value from the assets they are acquiring or selling.  

Resilience

The switch to renewable energy results in both lower emissions but also increased complexity. Given the energy network’s pivotal role in our society and economy, affecting everything from transport to communications, establishing network resilience is critical. Threats like climate change, hacking, extreme weather and others continue to grow. Our organisational resilience team helps clients in the energy sector to map the risks and stay prepared for whatever’s next.
