Consulting Services
Business Strategy Development & Refinement: We work with clients to ensure that their vision for corporate growth and development is clear, actionable, and aligned with leadership goals and responsibilities across their organizations. We help clients articulate their growth stories in ways that inspire employees and make the connections between regulatory change, market opportunity and the company mission.
We serve as a strategic integrator, helping clean energy companies translate policy and market signals into commercial targets, while mitigating risk and building coalitions that strengthen business outcomes and reputational standing.
We regularly support clients with a range of strategic activities including:
- Policy Strategy & Regulatory Tracking: Target market identification, relationship development, and approach to monitoring and acting on federal, state, and regional incentive programs, tariffs, and compliance frameworks (e.g.,IRA, state RPS, interconnection rules)
- Competitive Benchmarking: Comparing peer companies’ strategies, pricing models, and technology adoption.
- Demand Forecasting: Modeling market growth for solar, storage, microgrids, and demand for resilience hubs based on policy and customer trends.
- Bid Strategy Design: Structuring competitive bids for utility programs, PPAs, or coalition procurements.
Strategic Ecosystem Articulation, Visualization and Engagement: We challenge clients to think through their position in the overall market ecosystem rigorously and engage the broadest possible network of useful business relationships to drive meaningful growth.
- Coalition Strategy: Designing frameworks for joint procurement, shared risk, and reputational alignment. Negotiating partnership arrangements with public and private sector entities.
- Anchor Offtaker Engagement: Identifying and negotiating with large customers (universities, corporations, municipalities) to secure demand.
- Investor Relations: Positioning the company’s strategy to attract structured finance partners and investors focused on clean, digital energy technologies.
Development of Innovative Pilots and Applied R&D Efforts: We are uniquely positioned to help digital clean energy companies develop the set of relationships needed to support breakthrough tests of their technologies to gain proof points and build public and commercial confidence required to drive scale in the industry. We serve as a bridge between technical R&D and market adoption, ensuring that experiments are scientifically rigorous and aligned with commercialization, coalition-building, and reputational risk management.
We regularly support clients with activities including:
- Proof-of-Concept Structuring: Designing pilot projects that validate technical performance under real-world conditions (e.g., microgrid demonstrations, storage cycling, advanced digital controls experiments). We ensure experiments are scoped to demonstrate efficiency, safety, cost curves, and scalability.
- Layered Funding Alignment: We structure experiments to qualify for grants, tax credits, and incentive programs. We align R&D exercises with state and federal funding priorities (e.g., DOE pilots, IRA demonstration programs).
- Scaling Pathways: Mapping how experimental results translate into commercial deployment: cost reductions, reliability metrics, and regulatory approvals. Identifying inflection points where technology can move from pilot → pre-commercial → scaled deployment.
