We will work with you as a formidable team of professionals to navigate the intricate regulatory web, guaranteeing you to excel in the complicated regulatory environment.

Our Expertise

Regulatory Mastery

We have exceptional understanding of how to formulate, implement and evaluate the elements of the regulatory landscape, asset valuation, customer classes, rate design, revenue requirement and loss of revenue adjustment mechanism (LRAM), least cost development plans (LCDP), cost of service and performance-based incentive regulation. Our policies and strategic recommendations promote efficient and effective economic regulation of transmission and distribution networks and stimulation of competition in generation and supply (billing, metering and customer service).

Strategic Compliance

The quality, courage, skills and experience of your leadership determines the quality of the organic strategies you steer forward. Your ability to minimise legal and reputational risks depends on your leaders’ understanding of how electricity markets work, terms of your licence and universal service obligations, regulatory and government directives and pronouncements and how to minimise corrupt practises and legal and reputational risks. Our partners craft policies that promote zero tolerance to corrupt practices, ethical behaviour in the workplace, and strict adherence to laws, regulatory guidelines and statutes.

Risk Mitigation

We promote certainty in your planning and system operations by supporting you to formulate policies that may help you to effectively and efficient prioritise, assess, determine and manage the risks you face due to a lack of storage in appreciable quantities, inelastic responsiveness of demand to changes in price, regulatory risks, periodic spikes and higher than normal clearing (system marginal) prices and transportation constraints.
