Energy & Utilities

Business plans, financial models and organisation building for solar, alternative-fuel and energy-services companies.

Why it matters

Energy in Egypt and the Gulf is shifting toward renewables and alternative fuels. Governments in Egypt and Saudi Arabia are adding large solar and wind capacity, commercial and industrial customers are installing their own solar to manage rising tariffs, and heavy industry is substituting part of its fuel with waste-derived alternatives. The companies serving this demand are often young or recently restructured, and they compete for capital in markets where currency, tariffs and financing terms can change the economics of a project.

Our expertise

Our energy work centers on the plan, the model and the organization. We build five-year financial models and business plans for solar companies, with project economics, NPV and IRR, and sensitivity analysis on tariffs, equipment costs and financing. For energy services firms that have lost momentum, we prepare recovery business plans that show lenders and shareholders a credible way back. For alternative fuel and waste businesses, we run gap analyses, set mission and vision, design the organization and drive quarterly improvement projects.

  1. Utility-scale solar and wind programs expanding across Egypt and Saudi Arabia
  2. Commercial and industrial customers adopting rooftop solar against rising tariffs
  3. Heavy industry substituting fossil fuels with waste-derived alternative fuels
  4. Currency and financing terms deciding whether projects are bankable
  5. Young energy companies needing structure, governance and management systems
  6. Energy services firms restructuring after project pipelines slowed

Questions we help answer.

  1. 01Does our five-year plan hold up if tariffs, equipment prices or financing terms move?
  2. 02Which projects and customer segments give us the best return on scarce capital?
  3. 03What recovery plan will convince our lenders and shareholders to stay with us?
  4. 04What organization and management routines do we need as we grow beyond the founding team?
